12.2 INSTRUCTION GROUPS
The ST7 family devices use an Instruction Set
consisting of 63 instructions. The instructions may
be subdivided into 13 main groups as illustrated in
the following table:
Using a prebyte
The instructions are described with 1 to 4 bytes.
In order to extend the number of available op-
codes for an 8-bit CPU (256 opcodes), three differ-
ent prebyte opcodes are defined. These prebytes
modify the meaning of the instruction they pre-
cede.
The whole instruction becomes:
PC-2 End of previous instruction
PC-1 Prebyte
PC Opcode
PC+1 Additional word (0 to 2) according to the
number of bytes required to compute the
effective address
These prebytes enable instruction in Y as well as
indirect addressing modes to be implemented.
They precede the opcode of the instruction in X or
the instruction using direct addressing mode. The
prebytes are:
PDY 90 Replace an X based instruction using
immediate, direct, indexed, or inherent
addressing mode by a Y one.
PIX 92 Replace an instruction using direct, di-
rect bit or direct relative addressing
mode to an instruction using the corre-
sponding indirect addressing mode.
It also changes an instruction using X
indexed addressing mode to an instruc-
tion using indirect X indexed addressing
mode.
PIY 91 Replace an instruction using X indirect
indexed addressing mode by a Y one.
12.2.1 Illegal Opcode Reset
In order to provide enhanced robustness to the de-
vice against unexpected behavior, a system of ille-
gal opcode detection is implemented. If a code to
be executed does not correspond to any opcode
or prebyte value, a reset is generated. This, com-
bined with the Watchdog, allows the detection and
recovery from an unexpected fault or interference.
Note: A valid prebyte associated with a valid op-
code forming an unauthorized combination does
not generate a reset.
