INSTRUCTION CYCLE TIMES
All instructions in this format have an equivalent ARM instruction as shown in Table 4-6. The instruction cycle
times for the THUMB instruction are identical to that of the equivalent ARM instruction.
THE BX INSTRUCTION
BX performs a Branch to a routine whose start address is specified in a Lo or Hi register.
Bit 0 of the address determines the processor state on entry to the routine:
Bit 0 = 0
Causes the processor to enter ARM state.
Bit 0 = 1
Causes the processor to enter THUMB state.
NOTE
The action of H1 = 1 for this instruction is undefined, and should not be used.
