Can someone tell me the logic of converting a hexadecimal format to ASCII format in Assembly please?
 

Hi purifier,
Thought I might have something local, but couldn't find it. You didn't say which processor you are using, and that makes a difference with assembly. However, I do have some links which will probably help:
for PIC micro:**broken link removed**

About 10-15 years ago in a Bulgarian magazine 'Computer' there was a
contest on
shortest HEX to ASCII routine for several processors.
Here is the routine for '51, in fact only 6 bytes long not counting ret.
Please
comment.

hex1d:
add A#090h
da A
addc A,#040h
da A
ret

And another for the 51 is halfway down this page on Myke Predco's site - #3:

I hope this is of some help to you, but if you have questions, just ask.
