RX23W Group 2. CPU
2.5 Endian
For the RXv2 CPU, instructions are little endian, but the treatment of data is selectable as little or big endian.
2.5.1 Switching the Endian
As arrangements of bytes, this MCU supports both big endian, where the higher-order byte (MSB) is at location 0, and
little endian, where the lower-order byte (LSB) is at location 0.
For details on the endian setting, see section 3, Operating Modes.
Operations for access differ according to the endian setting and, depending on the instruction, whether 8-, 16- or 32-bit
access has been selected. Operations for access in the various possible cases are described in Table 2.1 to Table 2.12.
In the tables,
LL indicates bits D7 to D0 of the general-purpose register,
LH indicates bits D15 to D8 of the general-purpose register,
HL indicates bits D23 to D16 of the general-purpose register, and
HH indicates bits D31 to D24 of the general-purpose register.
D31 to D24 D23 to D16 D15 to D8 D7 to D0
