short-form description (continued)
CPU
All sixteen registers are located inside the CPU,
providing reduced instruction execution time. This
reduces a register-register operation execution
time to one cycle of the processor.
Four registers are reserved for special use as a
program counter, a stack pointer, a status register,
and a constant generator. The remaining twelve
registers are available as general-purpose
registers.
Peripherals are connected to the CPU using a
data address and control buses and can be
handled easily with all instructions for memory
manipulation.
instruction set
The instructions set for this register-register architecture provides a powerful and easy-to-use assembly
language. The instruction set consists of 51 instructions with three formats and seven addressing modes.
Table 1 provides a summation and example of the three types of instruction formats; the addressing modes are
listed in Table 2.
Table 1. Instruction Word Formats
Dual operands, source-destination e.g. ADD R4, R5 R4 + R5
→
R5
Single operands, destination only e.g. CALL R8 PC → (TOS), R8 → PC
Relative jump, un-/conditional e.g. JNE Jump-on equal bit = 0
Most instructions can operate on both word and byte data. Byte operations are identified by the suffix B.
Examples: Instructions for word operation Instructions for byte operation
MOV EDE,TONI MOV.B EDE,TONI
ADD #235h,&MEM ADD.B #35h,&MEM
PUSH R5 PUSH.B R5
