Delay Calculation:

Crystal used- 4 MHz

Machine cycle frequency = (Crystal Frequency) / (Clocks per machine cycle)

= 4/12

= 0.3333 MHz

Time Period of Machine Cycle = 1/0.33

= 3.003us (microseconds)

No. of machine cycles = 1(for MOV A, #55H) + 1(for MOV P0, A)

= 2 cycles

Total Delay = 7 * 255 * 255 * 2 * 3.003

= 2733781.05us

= 2.73 seconds

Thus the LEDs will show alternate blinking after every 2.73 seconds; the delay can be adjusted as per the requirement by just varying the values of registers R0, R1 or R2.

Why alternate blinking?

Initially value at P0 = #55h

55h in binary- 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1.

Thus LEDs status is-

LED 1- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 2- 1(high) : OFF

LED 3- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 4- 1(high) : OFF

LED 5- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 6- 1(high) : OFF

LED 7- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 8- 1(high) : OFF

After delay of 2.7 seconds CPL A is executed

Now Value at P0 = #AAh

AAh in binary- 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0

Thus LEDs status is-

LED 1- 1(high) : OFF

LED 2- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 3- 1(high) : OFF

LED 4- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 5- 1(high) : OFF

LED 6- 0(low) : GLOW

LED 7- 1(high) : OFF

LED 8- 0(low) : GLOW
