Background Debug Mode (BDM)
29.5.3 BDM Command Set
Table 29-17 summarizes the BDM command set. Subsequent paragraphs contain detailed
descriptions of each command. Issuing a BDM command when the processor is accessing
debug module registers using the WDEBUG instruction causes undefined behavior.
Unassigned command opcodes are reserved by Motorola. All unused command formats
within any revision level perform a
NOP and return the illegal command response.

General command effect and/or requirements on CPU operation:
- Halted. The CPU must be halted to perform this command.
- Steal. Command generates bus cycles that can be interleaved with bus accesses.
- Parallel. Command is executed in parallel with CPU activity.
Section
Command
(Hex)
Read A/D
register
RAREG/
RDREG
Read the selected address or data register and return the
results through the serial interface.
Halted 29.5.3.3.1 0x218 {A/D,
Reg[2:0]}
Write A/D
register
WAREG/
WDREG
Write the data operand to the specified address or data
register.
Halted 29.5.3.3.2 0x208 {A/D,
Reg[2:0]}
Read memory
location
READ Read the data at the memory location specified by the
longword address.
Steal 29.5.3.3.3 0x1900—byte
0x1940—word
0x1980—lword
Write memory
location
WRITE Write the operand data to the memory location specified
by the longword address.
Steal 29.5.3.3.4 0x1800—byte
0x1840—word
0x1880—lword
Dump
memory block
DUMP Used with READ to dump large blocks of memory. An
initial READ is executed to set up the starting address of
the block and to retrieve the first result. A
DUMP
command retrieves subsequent operands.
Steal 29.5.3.3.5 0x1D00—byte
0x1D40—word
0x1D80—lword
Fill memory
block
FILL Used with WRITE to fill large blocks of memory. An
initial WRITE is executed to set up the starting address of
the block and to supply the first operand. A
FILL
command writes subsequent operands.
Steal 29.5.3.3.6 0x1C00—byte
0x1C40—word
0x1C80—lword
Resume
execution
GO The pipeline is flushed and refilled before resuming
instruction execution at the current PC.
Halted 29.5.3.3.7 0x0C00
No operation
NOP Perform no operation; may be used as a null command. Parallel 29.5.3.3.8 0x0000
Read control
register
RCREG Read the system control register. Halted 29.5.3.3.9 0x2980
Write control
register
WCREG Write the operand data to the system control register. Halted 29.5.3.3.10 0x2880
Read debug
module
register
RDMREG Read the debug module register. Parallel 29.5.3.3.11 0x2D {0x4
2
DRc[4:0]}

0x4 is a three-bit field.
Write debug
module
register
WDMREG Write the operand data to the debug module register. Parallel 29.5.3.3.12 0x2C {0x4
