EM78452
8-Bit Microcontroller
"JMP" instruction allows direct loading of the lower 10 program counter bits. Thus,
"JMP" allows it to jump to any location on one page.
"CALL" instruction loads the lower 10 bits of the PC, and then PC+1 is pushed into
the stack. Thus, the subroutine entry address can be located anywhere within a
page
"RET" ("RETL k", "RETI") instruction loads the program counter with the contents
at the top of the stack.
"MOV R2, A" allows the loading of an address from the "A" register to the lower 8
bits of PC, and the ninth and tenth bits (A8~A9) of the PC are cleared.
"ADD R2, A" allows a relative address to be added to the current PC, and the ninth
and tenth bits of the PC are cleared.
Any instruction that is written to R2 (e.g. "ADD R2, A", "MOV R2, A", "BC R2,6",⋅⋅⋅⋅⋅)
(except "TBL") will cause the ninth and tenth bits (A8~A9) of the PC to be cleared.
Thus, the computed jump is limited to the first 256 locations of any program page.
"TBL" allows a relative address to be added to the current PC (R2+A→R2), and
contents of the ninth and tenth bits (A8~A9) of the PC are not changed. Thus, the
computed jump can be on the second (or third, 4th) 256th locations on one
program page.
In the case of EM78452, the most significant bits (A10~A11) will be loaded with the
contents of bits PS0~PS1 in the status register (R3) upon the execution of a "JMP",
"CALL", or any other instructions which writes to R2.
All instructions are single instruction cycle (fclk/2 or fclk/4 except for instructions
that would change the contents of R2. Such instruction will need one more
instruction cycle.
