image/svg+xmlOUT—Output to PortInstruction Operand EncodingDescriptionCopies the value from the second operand (source operand) to the I/O port specified with the destination operand (first operand). The source operand can be register AL, AX, or EAX, depending on the size of the port being accessed (8, 16, or 32 bits, respectively); the destination operand can be a byte-immediate or the DX register. Using a byte immediate allows I/O port addresses 0 to 255 to be accessed; using the DX register as a source operand allows I/O ports from 0 to 65,535 to be accessed.The size of the I/O port being accessed is determined by the opcode for an 8-bit I/O port or by the operand-size attribute of the instruction for a 16- or 32-bit I/O port.At the machine code level, I/O instructions are shorter when accessing 8-bit I/O ports. Here, the upper eight bits of the port address will be 0.This instruction is only useful for accessing I/O ports located in the processor’s I/O address space. See Chapter 19, “Input/Output,” in the Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual, Volume 1, for more infor-mation on accessing I/O ports in the I/O address space.This instruction’s operation is the same in non-64-bit modes and 64-bit mode.IA-32 Architecture CompatibilityAfter executing an OUT instruction, the Pentium® processor ensures that the EWBE# pin has been sampled active before it begins to execute the next instruction. (Note that the instruction can be prefetched if EWBE# is not active, but it will not be executed until the EWBE# pin is sampled active.) Only the Pentium processor family has the EWBE# pin.Opcode*InstructionOp/ En64-Bit ModeCompat/Leg ModeDescriptionE6 ibOUT imm8, ALIValidValidOutput byte in AL to I/O port address imm8.E7 ibOUT imm8, AXIValidValidOutput word in AX to I/O port address imm8.
