Central Processing Unit (CPU)
MC9S12DP256 — Revision 1.1
Central Processing Unit (CPU)
temporary storage of data. The stack pointer can also be used in all
indexed addressing modes.
Program counter is a 16-bit register that holds the address of the next
instruction to be executed. The program counter can be used in all
indexed addressing modes except autoincrement/decrement.
Condition Code Register (CCR) contains five status indicators, two
interrupt masking bits, and a STOP disable bit. The five flags are half
carry (H), negative (N), zero (Z), overflow (V), and carry/borrow (C). The
half-carry flag is used only for BCD arithmetic operations. The N, Z, V,
and C status bits allow for branching based on the results of a previous
operation.
Data Types
The STAR12 CPU supports the following data types:
Bit data
8-bit and 16-bit signed and unsigned integers
16-bit unsigned fractions
16-bit addresses
A byte is eight bits wide and can be accessed at any byte location. A
word is composed of two consecutive bytes with the most significant
byte at the lower value address. There are no special requirements for
alignment of instructions or operands.
