Central Processor Unit (CPU)
Technical Data MC68HC908LJ12 — Rev. 2.1
78 Central Processor Unit (CPU) Freescale Semiconductor
6.2 Introduction
The M68HC08 CPU (central processor unit) is an enhanced and fully
object-code-compatible version of the M68HC05 CPU. The CPU08
Reference Manual (Freescale document order number CPU08RM/AD)
contains a description of the CPU instruction set, addressing modes,
and architecture.
6.3 Features
Feature of the CPU include:
• Object code fully upward-compatible with M68HC05 Family
• 16-bit stack pointer with stack manipulation instructions
• 16-Bit index register with X-register manipulation instructions
• 8-MHz CPU internal bus frequency
• 64-Kbyte program/data memory space
• 16 addressing modes
• Memory-to-memory data moves without using accumulator
• Fast 8-bit by 8-bit multiply and 16-bit by 8-bit divide instructions
• Enhanced binary-coded decimal (BCD) data handling
• Modular architecture with expandable internal bus definition for
extension of addressing range beyond 64-Kbytes
• Low-power stop and wait modes
