Glossary
index register (H:X) — A 16-bit register in the CPU08. The upper byte of H:X is called H. The
input/output (I/O) — Input/output interfaces between a computer system and the external world.
instructions — Operations that a CPU can perform. Instructions are expressed by programmers
interrupt — A temporary break in the sequential execution of a program to respond to signals
interrupt request — A signal from a peripheral to the CPU intended to cause the CPU to
I/O — See “input/output (I/0).”
IRQ — See "external interrupt module (IRQ)."
jitter — Short-term signal instability.
latch — A circuit that retains the voltage level (logic 1 or logic 0) written to it for as long as power
latency — The time lag between instruction completion and data movement.
least significant bit (LSB) — The rightmost digit of a binary number.
logic 1 — A voltage level approximately equal to the input power voltage (V
logic 0 — A voltage level approximately equal to the ground voltage (V
low byte — The least significant eight bits of a word.
low voltage inhibit module (LVI) — A module in the M68HC08 Family that monitors power

lower byte is called X. In the indexed addressing modes, the CPU uses the contents of
H:X to determine the effective address of the operand. H:X can also serve as a temporary
data storage location.
A CPU reads an input to sense the level of an external signal and writes to an output to
change the level on an external signal.

operand(s) and instruction.
