Description
Status and Conditions that Affect Instruction
Status and Conditions Changed by Instruction
Example
cont _label
Loop count 3 (LC3) is 1, so loop count is decremented to 0, loop flag 3 (SR26) is cleared, and program
continues at _label, address $0000 0020.
Operation Assembler Syntax
If LCn
> 1,
then SAn
→ PC, LCn-1 → LCn
else PC + displacement
→ PC
0
→ LFn,
0
→ LCn

Continues the active loop n from the start address of the loop (SAn) if its loop counter (LCn) is greater than
one. Otherwise, it clears the active loop flag (LFn) and branches to an address determined by a 16-bit
signed displacement [–2

,W ] added to the PC. In either case, the active loop counter
is decremented by one. Some programming rules apply to the use of this instruction. If no loops are
enabled, this instruction is undefined.
Register Address Bit Name Description
SR[30:27] LF[3:0] Read loop flags to determine active loop.
Register Address Bit Name Description
SR[30:27] LF[3:0] Clear active loop flag if the active loop counter is less than or equal to
one.
