14.0 Instruction Set
14.1 INTRODUCTION
This section defines the instruction set of the COP8 Family
members. It contains information about the instruction set
features, addressing modes and types.
14.2 INSTRUCTION FEATURES
The strength of the instruction set is based on the following
features:
14.3 ADDRESSING MODES
The instruction set offers a variety of methods for specifying
memory addresses. Each method is called an addressing
mode. These modes are classified into two categories: op-
erand addressing modes and transfer-of-control addressing
modes. Operand addressing modes are the various meth-
ods of specifying an address for accessing (reading or writ-
ing) data. Transfer-of-control addressing modes are used in
conjunction with jump instructions to control the execution
sequence of the software program.
14.3.1 Operand Addressing Modes
The operand of an instruction specifies what memory loca-
tion is to be affected by that instruction. Several different
operand addressing modes are available, allowing memory
locations to be specified in a variety of ways. An instruction
can specify an address directly by supplying the specific
address, or indirectly by specifying a register pointer. The
contents of the register (or in some cases, two registers)
point to the desired memory location. In the immediate
mode, the data byte to be used is contained in the instruction
itself.
Each addressing mode has its own advantages and disad-
vantages with respect to flexibility, execution speed, and
program compactness. Not all modes are available with all
instructions. The Load (LD) instruction offers the largest
number of addressing modes.

The available addressing modes are:
The addressing modes are described below. Each descrip-
tion includes an example of an assembly language instruc-
tion using the described addressing mode.
Direct. The memory address is specified directly as a byte in
the instruction. In assembly language, the direct address is
written as a numerical value (or a label that has been defined
elsewhere in the program as a numerical value).
Example: Load Accumulator Memory Direct
Register B or X Indirect. The memory address is specified
by the contents of the B Register or X register (pointer
register). In assembly language, the notation [B] or [X] speci-
fies which register serves as the pointer.
Example: Exchange Memory with Accumulator, B Indirect
Register B or X Indirect with Post-Incrementing/
Decrementing. The relevant memory address is specified
by the contents of the B Register or X register (pointer
register). The pointer register is automatically incremented
or decremented after execution, allowing easy manipulation
of memory blocks with software loops. In assembly lan-
guage, the notation [B+], [B−], [X+], or [X−] specifies which
register serves as the pointer, and whether the pointer is to
be incremented or decremented.
Example: Exchange Memory with Accumulator, B Indirect
Intermediate. The data for the operation follows the instruc-
tion opcode in program memory. In assembly language, the
number sign character ( # ) indicates an immediate operand.
