4.7 Usage Note
When accessing word data or longword data, this LSI assumes that the lowest address bit is 0. The
stack should always be accessed in words or longwords, and the value of the stack pointer (SP:
ER7) should always be kept even.
Use the following instructions to save registers:
PUSH.W Rn (or MOV.W Rn, @-SP)
PUSH.L ERn (or MOV.L ERn, @-SP)
Use the following instructions to restore registers:
POP.W Rn (or MOV.W @SP+, Rn)
POP.L ERn (or MOV.L @SP+, ERn)
Setting SP to an odd value may lead to a malfunction. Figure 4.3 shows an example of what
happens when the SP value is odd.
