In the 8085 microprocessor, a "near call" refers to a subroutine call within the same memory segment, typically allowing for a return to the next instruction using a simple return instruction (RET). A "far call," on the other hand, is used to call a subroutine located in a different memory segment, requiring the processor to save both the program counter and the segment information. This distinction affects how memory addresses are handled and how the stack is utilized during subroutine calls and returns.
