(MCU). The fully object code compatible CPU08 offers M68HC05 users increased performance with no
loss of time or software investment in their M68HC05-based applications. The CPU08 also appeals to
users of other MCU architectures who need the CPU08 combination of speed, low power, processing
capabilities, and cost effectiveness.

1.3 Programming Model
The CPU08 programming model consists of:
8-bit accumulator
16-bit index register
16-bit stack pointer
16-bit program counter
8-bit condition code register
See Figure 2-1. CPU08 Programming Model.
General Description
1.4 Memory Space
Program memory space and data memory space are contiguous over a 64-Kbyte addressing range.
Addition of a page-switching peripheral allows extension of the addressing range beyond 64 Kbytes.
1.5 Addressing Modes
The CPU08 has a total of 16 addressing modes:
Inherent
Immediate
Direct
Extended
Indexed
No offset
No offset, post increment
8-bit offset
8-bit offset, post increment
16-bit offset
Stack pointer
8-bit offset
16-bit offset
Relative
Memory-to-memory (four modes)
Refer to Chapter 4 Addressing Modes for a detailed description of the CPU08 addressing modes.
1.6 Arithmetic Instructions
The CPU08 arithmetic functions include:
Addition with and without carry
Subtraction with and without carry
A fast 16-bit by 8-bit unsigned division
A fast 8-bit by 8-bit unsigned multiply
1.7 Binary-Coded Decimal (BCD) Arithmetic Support
To support binary-coded decimal (BCD) arithmetic applications, the CPU08 has a decimal adjust
accumulator (DAA) instruction and a nibble swap accumulator (NSA) instruction.
1.8 High-Level Language Support
The 16-bit index register, 16-bit stack pointer, 8-bit signed branch instructions, and associated
instructions are designed to support the efficient use of high-level language (HLL) compilers with the
CPU08.
1.9 Low-Power Modes
The WAIT and STOP instructions reduce the power consumption of the CPU08-based MCU. The WAIT
instruction stops only the CPU clock and therefore uses more power than the STOP instruction, which
stops both the CPU clock and the peripheral clocks. In most modules, clocks can be shut off in wait mode.

2.2.1 Accumulator
The accumulator (A) shown in Figure 2-2 is a general-purpose 8-bit register. The central processor unit
(CPU) uses the accumulator to hold operands and results of arithmetic and non-arithmetic operations.
2.2.2 Index Register
The 16-bit index register (H:X) shown in Figure 2-3 allows the user to index or address a 64-Kbyte
memory space. The concatenated 16-bit register is called H:X. The upper byte of the index register is
called H. The lower byte of the index register is called X. H is cleared by reset. When H = 0 and no
instructions that affect H are used, H:X is functionally identical to the IX register of the M6805 Family.
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. See 4.2.5 Indexed, No Offset;
4.2.6 Indexed, 8-Bit Offset; and 4.2.7 Indexed, 16-Bit Offset.

CPU08 Registers
2.2.3 Stack Pointer
The stack pointer (SP) shown in Figure 2-4 is a 16-bit register that contains the address of the next
location on the stack. During a reset, the stack pointer is preset to $00FF to provide compatibility with the
M6805 Family.
NOTE
The reset stack pointer (RSP) instruction sets the least significant byte to
$FF and does not affect the most significant byte.
The address in the stack pointer decrements as data is pushed onto the stack and increments as data is
pulled from the stack. The SP always points to the next available (empty) byte on the stack.
The CPU08 has stack pointer 8- and 16-bit offset addressing modes that allow the stack pointer to be
used as an index register to access temporary variables on the stack. The CPU uses the contents in the
SP register to determine the effective address of the operand. See 4.2.8 Stack Pointer, 8-Bit Offset and
4.2.9 Stack Pointer, 16-Bit Offset.
NOTE
Although preset to $00FF, the location of the stack is arbitrary and may be
relocated by the user to anywhere that random-access memory (RAM)
resides within the memory map. Moving the SP out of page 0 ($0000 to
$00FF) will free up address space, which may be accessed using the
efficient direct addressing mode.
2.2.4 Program Counter
The program counter (PC) shown in Figure 2-5 is a 16-bit register that contains the address of the next
instruction or operand to be fetched.
Normally, the address in the program counter automatically increments to the next sequential memory
location every time an instruction or operand is fetched. Jump, branch, and interrupt operations load the
program counter with an address other than that of the next sequential location.
During reset, the PC is loaded with the contents of the reset vector located at $FFFE and $FFFF. This
represents the address of the first instruction to be executed after the reset state is exited.

Architecture
2.2.5 Condition Code Register
The 8-bit condition code register (CCR) shown in Figure 2-6 contains the interrupt mask and five flags
that indicate the results of the instruction just executed. Bits five and six are permanently set to logic 1.
V Overflow Flag
The CPU sets the overflow flag when a two's complement overflow occurs as a result of an operation.
The overflow flag bit is utilized by the signed branch instructions:
Branch if greater than, BGT
Branch if greater than or equal to, BGE
Branch if less than or equal to, BLE
Branch if less than, BLT
This bit is set by these instructions, although its resulting value holds no meaning:
Arithmetic shift left, ASL
Arithmetic shift right, ASR
Logical shift left, LSL
Logical shift right, LSR
Rotate left through carry, ROL
Rotate right through carry, ROR
H Half-Carry Flag
The CPU sets the half-carry flag when a carry occurs between bits 3 and 4 of the accumulator during
an add-without-carry (ADD) or add-with-carry (ADC) operation. The half-carry flag is required for
binary-coded (BCD) arithmetic operations. The decimal adjust accumulator (DAA) instruction uses the
state of the H and C flags to determine the appropriate correction factor.
I Interrupt Mask
When the interrupt mask is set, all interrupts are disabled. Interrupts are enabled when the interrupt
mask is cleared. When an interrupt occurs, the interrupt mask is automatically set after the CPU
registers are saved on the stack, but before the interrupt vector is fetched.
NOTE
To maintain M6805 compatibility, the H register is not stacked
automatically. If the interrupt service routine uses X (and H is not clear),
then the user must stack and unstack H using the push H (index register
high) onto stack (PSHH) and pull H (index register high) from stack (PULH)
instructions within the interrupt service routine.
If an interrupt occurs while the interrupt mask is set, the interrupt is latched. Interrupts in order of priority
are serviced as soon as the I bit is cleared.

Figure 2-6. Condition Code Register (CCR)
CPU08 Functional Description
A return-from-interrupt (RTI) instruction pulls the CPU registers from the stack, restoring the interrupt
mask to its cleared state. After any reset, the interrupt mask is set and can only be cleared by a
software instruction. See Chapter 3 Resets and Interrupts.
N Negative Flag
The CPU sets the negative flag when an arithmetic operation, logical operation, or data manipulation
produces a negative result.
Z Zero Flag
The CPU sets the zero flag when an arithmetic operation, logical operation, or data manipulation
produces a result of $00.
C Carry/Borrow Flag
The CPU sets the carry/borrow flag when an addition operation produces a carry out of bit 7 of the
accumulator or when a subtraction operation requires a borrow. Some logical operations and data
manipulation instructions also clear or set the carry/borrow flag (as in bit test and branch instructions and
shifts and rotates).
2.3 CPU08 Functional Description
This subsection is an overview of the architecture of the M68HC08 CPU with functional descriptions of
the major blocks of the CPU.
The CPU08, as shown in Figure 2-7, is divided into two main blocks:
Control unit
Execution unit
The control unit contains a finite state machine along with miscellaneous control and timing logic. The
outputs of this block drive the execution unit, which contains the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), registers, and
bus interface.

2.3.1 Internal Timing
The CPU08 derives its timing from a 4-phase clock, each phase identified as either T1, T2, T3, or T4. A
CPU bus cycle consists of one clock pulse from each phase, as shown in Figure 2-8. To simplify
subsequent diagrams, the T clocks have been combined into a single signal called the CPU clock. The
start of a CPU cycle is defined as the leading edge of T1, though the address associated with this cycle
does not drive the address bus until T3. Note that the new address leads the associated data by one-half
of a bus cycle.
For example, the data read associated with a new PC value generated in T1/T2 of cycle 1 in Figure 2-8
would not be read into the control unit until T2 of the next cycle.
Figure 2-8. Internal Timing Detail
2.3.2 Control Unit
The control unit consists of:
Sequencer
Control store
Random control logic
These blocks make up a finite state machine, which generates all the controls for the execution unit.
The sequencer provides the next state of the machine to the control store based on the contents of the
instruction register (IR) and the current state of the machine. The control store is strobed (enabled) when
the next state input is stable, producing an output that represents the decoded next state condition for the
execution unit (EU). This result, with the help of some random logic, is used to generate the control signals
that configure the execution unit. The random logic selects the appropriate signals and adds timing to the
outputs of the control store. The control unit fires once per bus cycle but runs almost a full cycle ahead of
the execution unit to decode and generate all the controls for the next cycle. The sequential nature of the
machine is shown in Figure 2-9.
The sequencer also contains and controls the opcode lookahead register, which is used to prefetch the
next sequential instruction. Timing of this operation is discussed in 2.3.4 Instruction Execution.

2.3.3 Execution Unit
The execution unit (EU) contains all the registers, the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), and the bus interface.
Once per bus cycle a new address is computed by passing selected register values along the internal
address buses to the address buffers. Note that the new address leads the associated data by one half
of a bus cycle. The execution unit also contains some special function logic for unusual instructions such
as DAA, unsigned multiply (MUL), and divide (DIV).
2.3.4 Instruction Execution
Each instruction has defined execution boundaries and executes in a finite number of T1-T2-T3-T4
cycles. All instructions are responsible for fetching the next opcode into the opcode lookahead register at
some time during execution. The opcode lookahead register is copied into the instruction register during
the last cycle of an instruction. This new instruction begins executing during the T1 clock after it has been
loaded into the instruction register.
Note that all instructions are also responsible for incrementing the PC after the next instruction prefetch
is under way. Therefore, when an instruction finishes (that is, at an instruction boundary), the PC will be
pointing to the byte following the opcode fetched by the instruction. An example sequence of instructions
concerning address and data bus activity with respect to instruction boundaries is shown in Figure 2-10.
A signal from the control unit, OPCODE LOOKAHEAD, indicates the cycle when the next opcode is
fetched. Another control signal, LASTBOX, indicates the last cycle of the currently executing instruction.
In most cases, OPCODE LOOKAHEAD and LASTBOX are active at the same time. For some
instructions, however, the OPCODE LOOKAHEAD signal is asserted earlier in the instruction and the
next opcode is prefetched and held in the lookahead register until the end of the currently executing
instruction.

In the instruction boundaries example (Figure 2-10) the OPCODE LOOKAHEAD and LASTBOX are
asserted simultaneously during TAX and increment INCX execution, but the load accumulator from
memory (LDA) indexed with 8-bit offset instruction prefetches the next opcode before the last cycle. Refer
to Figure 2-11. The boldface instructions in Figure 2-10 are illustrated in Figure 2-11.

3.1 Introduction
The CPU08 in a microcontroller executes instructions sequentially. In many applications it is necessary
to execute sets of instructions in response to requests from various peripheral devices. These requests
are often asynchronous to the execution of the main program. Resets and interrupts are both types of
CPU08 exceptions. Entry to the appropriate service routine is called exception processing.
Reset is required to initialize the device into a known state, including loading the program counter (PC)
with the address of the first instruction. Reset and interrupt operations share the common concept of
vector fetching to force a new starting point for further CPU08 operations.
Interrupts provide a way to suspend normal program execution temporarily so that the CPU08 can be
freed to service these requests. The CPU08 can process up to 128 separate interrupt sources including
a software interrupt (SWI).
On-chip peripheral systems generate maskable interrupts that are recognized only if the global interrupt
mask bit (I bit) in the condition code register is clear (reset is non-maskable). Maskable interrupts are
prioritized according to a default arrangement. (See Table 3-2 and 3.4.1 Interrupt Sources and Priority.)
When interrupt conditions occur in an on-chip peripheral system, an interrupt status flag is set to indicate
the condition. When the user's program has properly responded to this interrupt request, the status flag
must be cleared.
3.2 Elements of Reset and Interrupt Processing
Reset and interrupt processing is handled in discrete, though sometimes concurrent, tasks. It is
comprised of interrupt recognition, arbitration (evaluating interrupt priority), stacking of the machine state,
and fetching of the appropriate vector. Interrupt processing for a reset is comprised of recognition and a
fetch of the reset vector only. These tasks, together with interrupt masking and returning from a service
routine, are discussed in this subsection.
3.2.1 Recognition
Reset recognition is asynchronous and is recognized when asserted. Internal resets are asynchronous
with instruction execution except for illegal opcode and illegal address, which are inherently
instruction-synchronized. Exiting the reset state is always synchronous.
All pending interrupts are recognized by the CPU08 during the last cycle of each instruction. Interrupts
that occur during the last cycle will not be recognized by the CPU08 until the last cycle of the following
instruction. Instruction execution cannot be suspended to service an interrupt, and so interrupt latency
calculations must include the execution time of the longest instruction that could be encountered.
When an interrupt is recognized, an SWI opcode is forced into the instruction register in place of what
would have been the next instruction. (When using the CPU08 with the direct memory access (DMA)
module, the DMA can suspend instruction operation to service the peripheral.)
Because of the opcode lookahead prefetch mechanism, at instruction boundaries the program counter
(PC) always points to the address of the next instruction to be executed plus one. The presence of an
interrupt is used to modify the SWI flow such that instead of stacking this PC value, the PC is decremented
before being stacked. After interrupt servicing is complete, the return-from-interrupt (RTI) instruction will
unstack the adjusted PC and use it to prefetch the next instruction again. After SWI interrupt servicing is
complete, the RTI instruction then fetches the instruction following the SWI.
3.2.2 Stacking
To maintain object code compatibility, the M68HC08 interrupt stack frame is identical to that of the M6805
Family, as shown in Figure 3-1. Registers are stacked in the order of PC, X, A, and CCR. They are
unstacked in reverse order. Note that the condition code register (CCR) I bit (internal mask) is not set until
after the CCR is stacked during cycle 6 of the interrupt stacking procedure. The stack pointer always
points to the next available (empty) stack location.
Figure 3-1. Interrupt Stack Frame
NOTE
To maintain compatibility with the M6805 Family, H (the high byte of the
index register) is not stacked during interrupt processing. If the interrupt
service routine modifies H or uses the indexed addressing mode, it is
the users responsibility to save and restore it prior to returning.
See Figure 3-2.

3.2.3 Arbitration
All reset sources always have equal and highest priority and cannot be arbitrated. Interrupts are latched,
and arbitration is performed in the system integration module (SIM) at the start of interrupt processing.
The arbitration result is a constant that the CPU08 uses to determine which vector to fetch. Once an
interrupt is latched by the SIM, no other interrupt may take precedence, regardless of priority, until the
latched interrupt is serviced (or the I bit is cleared). See Figure 3-3.

3.2.4 Masking
Reset is non-maskable. All other interrupts can be enabled or disabled by the I mask bit in the CCR or by
local mask bits in the peripheral control registers. The I bit may also be modified by execution of the set
interrupt mask bit (SEI), clear interrupt mask bit (CLI), or transfer accumulator to condition code register
(TAP) instructions. The I bit is modified in the first cycle of each instruction (these are all 2-cycle
instructions). The I bit is also set during interrupt processing (see 3.2.1 Recognition) and is cleared during
the second cycle of the RTI instruction when the CCR is unstacked, provided that the stacked CCR I bit
is not modified at the interrupt service routine. (See 3.2.5 Returning to Calling Program.)
In all cases where the I bit can be modified, it is modified at least one cycle prior to the last cycle of the
instruction or operation, which guarantees that the new I-bit state will be effective prior to execution of the
next instruction. For example, if an interrupt is recognized during the CLI instruction, the load accumulator
from memory (LDA) instruction will not be executed before the interrupt is serviced. See Figure 3-4.
Figure 3-4. Interrupt Recognition Example 1
If an interrupt is pending upon exit from the original interrupt service routine, it will also be serviced before
the LDA instruction is executed. Note that the LDA opcode is prefetched by both the INT1 and INT2 RTI
instructions. However, in the case of the INT1 RTI prefetch, this is a redundant operation. See Figure 3-5.

Reset Processing
Similarly, in Figure 3-6, if an interrupt is recognized during the CLI instruction, it will be serviced before
the SEI instruction sets the I bit in the CCR.
3.2.5 Returning to Calling Program
When an interrupt has been serviced, the RTI instruction terminates interrupt processing and returns to
the program that was running at the time of the interrupt. In servicing the interrupt, some or all of the
CPU08 registers will have changed. To continue the former program as though uninterrupted, the
registers must be restored to the values present at the time the former program was interrupted. The RTI
instruction takes care of this by pulling (loading) the saved register values from the stack memory. The
last value to be pulled from the stack is the program counter, which causes processing to resume at the
point where it was interrupted.
Unstacking the CCR generally clears the I bit, which is cleared during the second cycle of the RTI
instruction.
NOTE
Since the return I bit state comes from the stacked CCR, the user, by setting
the I bit in the stacked CCR, can block all subsequent interrupts pending or
otherwise, regardless of priority, from within an interrupt service routine.

RTI
This capability can be useful in handling a transient situation where the interrupt handler detects that the
background program is temporarily unable to cope with the interrupt load and needs some time to recover.
At an appropriate juncture, the background program would reinstate interrupts after it has recovered.
3.3 Reset Processing
Reset forces the microcontroller unit (MCU) to assume a set of initial conditions and to begin executing
instructions from a predetermined starting address. For the M68HC08 Family, reset assertion is
asynchronous with instruction execution, and so the initial conditions can be assumed to take effect
almost immediately after applying an active low level to the reset pin, regardless of whether the clock has
started. Internally, reset is a clocked process, and so reset negation is synchronous with an internal clock,
as shown in Figure 3-7, which shows the internal timing for exiting a pin reset.

Figure 3-7. Exiting Reset
The reset system is able to actively pull down the reset output if reset-causing conditions are detected by
internal systems. This feature can be used to reset external peripherals or other slave MCU devices.
3.3.1 Initial Conditions Established
Once the reset condition is recognized, internal registers and control bits are forced to an initial state.
These initial states are described throughout this manual. These initial states in turn control on-chip
peripheral systems to force them to known startup states. Most of the initial conditions are independent
of the operating mode. This subsection summarizes the initial conditions of the CPU08 and input/output
(I/O) as they leave reset.
3.3.2 CPU
After reset the CPU08 fetches the reset vector from locations $FFFE and $FFFF (when in monitor mode,
the reset vector is fetched from $FEFE and $FEFF), loads the vector into the PC, and begins executing
instructions. The stack pointer is loaded with $00FF. The H register is cleared to provide compatibility for
existing M6805 object code. All other CPU08 registers are indeterminate immediately after reset;
however, the I interrupt mask bit in the condition code register is set to mask any interrupts, and the STOP
and WAIT latches are both cleared.
3.3.3 Operating Mode Selection
The CPU08 has two modes of operation useful to the user:
User mode
Monitor mode
The monitor mode is the same as user mode except that alternate vectors are used by forcing address
bit A8 to 0 instead of 1. The reset vector is therefore fetched from addresses $FEFE and FEFF instead
of FFFE and FFFF. This offset allows the CPU08 to execute code from the internal monitor firmware
instead of the user code. (Refer to the appropriate technical data manual for specific information regarding
the internal monitor description.)

Interrupt Processing
The mode of operation is latched on the rising edge of the reset pin. The monitor mode is selected by
connecting two port lines to V
ss
and applying an over-voltage of approximately 2 x V
DD
to the IRQ1 pin
concurrent with the rising edge of reset (see Table 3-1). Port allocation varies from part to part.
3.3.4 Reset Sources
The system integration module (SIM) has master reset control and may include, depending on device
implementation, any of these typical reset sources:
External reset (RESET pin)
Power-on reset (POR) circuit
COP watchdog
Illegal opcode reset
Illegal address reset
Low voltage inhibit (LVI) reset
A reset immediately stops execution of the current instruction. All resets produce the vector
$FFFE/$FFFF and assert the internal reset signal. The internal reset causes all registers to return to their
default values and all modules to return to their reset state.
3.3.5 External Reset
A logic 0 applied to the RESET pin asserts the internal reset signal, which halts all processing on the chip.
The CPU08 and peripherals are reset.
3.3.6 Active Reset from an Internal Source
All internal reset sources actively pull down the RESET pin to allow the resetting of external peripherals.
The RESET pin will be pulled down for 16 bus clock cycles; the internal reset signal will continue to be
asserted for an additional 16 cycles after that. If the RESET pin is still low at the the end of the second 16
cycles, then an external reset has occurred. If the pin is high, the appropriate bit will be set to indicate the
source of the reset.
The active reset feature allows the part to issue a reset to peripherals and other chips within a system
built around an M68HC08 MCU.
3.4 Interrupt Processing
The group of instructions executed in response to an interrupt is called an interrupt service routine. These
routines are much like subroutines except that they are called through the automatic hardware interrupt
mechanism rather than by a subroutine call instruction, and all CPU08 registers, except the H register,
are saved on the stack. Refer to the description of the interrupt mask (I) found in 2.2.5 Condition Code
Register.
Table 3-1. Mode Selection
IRQ1 Pin Port x Port y Mode
V
DD
X X User
2 x V
DD
1 0 Monitor
An interrupt (provided it is enabled) causes normal program flow to be suspended as soon as the currently
executing instruction finishes. The interrupt logic then pushes the contents of all CPU08 registers onto the
stack, except the H register, so that the CPU08 contents can be restored after the interrupt is finished.
After stacking the CPU08 registers, the vector for the highest priority pending interrupt source is loaded
into the program counter and execution continues with the first instruction of the interrupt service routine.
An interrupt is concluded with a return-from-interrupt (RTI) instruction, which causes all CPU08 registers
and the return address to be recovered from the stack, so that the interrupted program can resume as if
there had been no interruption.
Interrupts can be enabled or disabled by the mask bit (I bit) in the condition code register and by local
enable mask bits in the on-chip peripheral control registers. The interrupt mask bits in the CCR provide a
means of controlling the nesting of interrupts.
In rare cases it may be useful to allow an interrupt routine to be interrupted (see 3.4.3 Nesting of Multiple
Interrupts). However, nesting is discouraged because it greatly complicates a system and rarely improves
system performance.
By default, the interrupt structure inhibits interrupts during the interrupt entry sequence by setting the
interrupt mask bit(s) in the CCR. As the CCR is recovered from the stack during the return from interrupt,
the condition code bits return to the enabled state so that additional interrupts can be serviced.
Upon reset, the I bit is set to inhibit all interrupts. After minimum system initialization, software may clear
the I bit by a TAP or CLI instruction, thus enabling interrupts.
3.4.1 Interrupt Sources and Priority
The CPU08 can have 128 separate vectors including reset and software interrupt (SWI), which leaves
126 inputs for independent interrupt sources. See Table 3-2.
NOTE
Not all CPU08 versions use all available interrupt vectors.
Table 3-2. M68HC08 Vectors
Address Reset Priority
FFFE Reset 1
FFFC SWI 2
FFFA IREQ[0] 3
: : :
FF02 IREQ[124] 127
FF00 IREQ[125] 128
Interrupt Processing
When the system integration module (SIM) receives an interrupt request, processing begins at the next
instruction boundary. The SIM performs the priority decoding necessary if more than one interrupt source
is active at the same time. Also, the SIM encodes the highest priority interrupt request into a constant that
the CPU08 uses to generate the corresponding interrupt vector.
NOTE
The interrupt source priority for any specific module may not always be the
same in different M68HC08 versions. For details about the priority assigned
to interrupt sources in a specific M68HC08 device, refer to the SIM section
of the technical data manual written for that device.
As an instruction, SWI has the highest priority other than reset; once the SWI opcode is fetched, no other
interrupt can be honored until the SWI vector has been fetched.
3.4.2 Interrupts in Stop and Wait Modes
In wait mode the CPU clocks are disabled, but other module clocks remain active. A module that is active
during wait mode can wake the CPU08 by an interrupt if the interrupt is enabled. Processing of the
interrupt begins immediately.
In stop mode, the system clocks do not run. The system control module inputs are conditioned so that
they can be asynchronous. A particular module can wake the part from stop mode with an interrupt
provided that the module has been designed to do so.
3.4.3 Nesting of Multiple Interrupts
Under normal circumstances, CPU08 interrupt processing arbitrates multiple pending interrupts, selects
the highest, and leaves the rest pending. The I bit in the CCR is also set, preventing nesting of interrupts.
While an interrupt is being serviced, it effectively becomes the highest priority task for the system. When
servicing is complete, the assigned interrupt priority is re-established.
In certain systems where, for example, a low priority interrupt contains a long interrupt service routine, it
may not be desirable to lock out all higher priority interrupts while the low priority interrupt executes.
Although not generally advisable, controlled nesting of interrupts can be used to solve problems of this
nature.
If nesting of interrupts is desired, the interrupt mask bit(s) must be cleared after entering the interrupt
service routine. Care must be taken to specifically mask (disable) the present interrupt with a local enable
mask bit or clear the interrupt source flag before clearing the mask bit in the CCR. Failure to do so will
cause the same source to immediately interrupt, which will rapidly consume all available stack space.
3.4.4 Allocating Scratch Space on the Stack
In some systems, it is useful to allocate local variable or scratch space on the stack for use by the interrupt
service routine. Temporary storage can also be obtained using the push (PSH) and pull (PUL)
instructions; however, the last-in-first-out (LIFO) structure of the stack makes this impractical for more
than one or two bytes. The CPU08 features the 16-bit add immediate value (signed) to stack pointer (AIS)
instruction to allocate space. The stack pointer indexing instructions can then be used to access this data
space, as demonstrated in this example.
IRQINT PSHH ;Save H register
AIS #-16 ;Allocate 16 bytes of local storage
STA 3,SP ;Store a value in the second byte
;of local space
* Note: The stack pointer must always point to the next
* empty stack location. The location addressed
* by 0,SP should therefore never be used unless the
* programmer can guarantee no subroutine calls from
* within the interrupt service routine.
.

* Note: Subroutine calls alter the offset from the SP to

* stacked return address. If the user wishes to

* from within the interrupt service routine, then
* the offsets should be adjusted by +2 bytes for each
* level of subroutine nesting.

Addressing Modes
4.1 Introduction
This section describes the addressing modes of the M68HC08 central processor unit (CPU).
4.2 Addressing Modes
The CPU08 uses 16 addressing modes for flexibility in accessing data. These addressing modes define
how the CPU finds the data required to execute an instruction.
The 16 addressing modes are:
Inherent
Immediate
Direct
Extended
Indexed, no offset
Indexed, 8-bit offset
Indexed, 16-bit offset
Stack pointer, 8-bit offset
Stack pointer, 16-bit offset
Relative
Memory-to-memory (four modes):
Immediate to direct
Direct to direct
Indexed to direct with post increment
Direct to indexed with post increment
Indexed with post increment
Indexed, 8-bit offset with post increment
Addressing Modes
4.2.1 Inherent
Inherent instructions have no operand fetch associated with the instruction, such as decimal adjust
accumulator (DAA), clear index high (CLRH), and divide (DIV). Some of the inherent instructions act on
data in the CPU registers, such as clear accumulator (CLRA), and transfer condition code register to
the accumulator (TPA). Inherent instructions require no memory address, and most are one byte long.
Table 4-1 lists the instructions that use inherent addressing.
The assembly language statements shown here are examples of the inherent addressing mode. In the
code example and throughout this section, bold typeface instructions are examples of the specific
addressing mode being discussed; a pound sign (#) before a number indicates an immediate operand.
The default base is decimal. Hexadecimal numbers are represented by a dollar sign ($) preceding the
number. Some assemblers use hexadecimal as the default numbering system. Refer to the
documentation for the particular assembler to determine the proper syntax.

4.2.2 Immediate
The operand in immediate instructions is contained in the bytes immediately following the opcode. The
byte or bytes that follow the opcode are the value of the statement rather than the address of the value.
In this case, the effective address of the instruction is specified by the # sign and implicitly points to the
byte following the opcode. The immediate value is limited to either one or two bytes, depending on the
size of the register involved in the instruction. Table 4-2 lists the instructions that use immediate
addressing.
Immediate instructions associated with the index register (H:X) are 3-byte instructions: one byte for the
opcode, two bytes for the immediate data byte.
The example code shown here contains two immediate instructions: AIX (add immediate to H:X) and
CPHX (compare H:X with immediate value). H:X is first cleared and then incremented by one until it
contains $FFFF. Once the condition specified by the CPHX becomes true, the program branches to
START, and the process is repeated indefinitely.

Addressing Modes
4.2.3 Direct
Most direct instructions can access any of the first 256 memory addresses with only two bytes. The first
byte is the opcode, and the second is the low byte of the operand address. The high-order byte of the
effective address is assumed to be $00 and is not included as an instruction byte (saving program
memory space and execution time). The use of direct addressing mode is therefore limited to operands
in the $0000$00FF area of memory (called the direct page or page 0).
Direct addressing instructions take one less byte of program memory space than the equivalent
instructions using extended addressing. By eliminating the additional memory access, the execution time
is reduced by one cycle. In the course of a long program, this savings can be substantial. Most
microcontroller units place some if not all random-access memory (RAM) in the $0000$00FF area; this
allows the designer to assign these locations to frequently referenced data variables, thus saving
execution time.
BRSET and BRCLR are 3-byte instructions that use direct addressing to access the operand and relative
addressing to specify a branch destination.
CPHX, STHX, and LDHX are 2-byte instructions that fetch a 16-bit operand. The most significant byte
comes from the direct address; the least significant byte comes from the direct address + 1.
Table 4-3 lists the instructions that use direct addressing.
This example code contains two direct addressing mode instructions: STHX (store H:X in memory) and
CPHX (compare H:X with memory). The first STHX instruction initializes RAM storage location TEMP to
zero, and the second STHX instruction loads TEMP with $5555. The CPHX instruction compares the
value in H:X with the value of RAM:(RAM + 1).
In this example, RAM:(RAM + 1) = TEMP = $50:$51 = $5555.

4.2.4 Extended
Extended instructions can access any address in a 64-Kbyte memory map. All extended instructions are
three bytes long. The first byte is the opcode; the second and third bytes are the most significant and least
significant bytes of the operand address. This addressing mode is selected when memory above the
direct or zero page ($0000$00FF) is accessed.
When using most assemblers, the programmer does not need to specify whether an instruction is direct
or extended. The assembler automatically selects the shortest form of the instruction. Table 4-4 lists the
instructions that use the extended addressing mode. An example of the extended addressing mode is
shown here.

4.2.5 Indexed, No Offset
Indexed instructions with no offset are 1-byte instructions that access data with variable addresses. X
contains the low byte of the conditional address of the operand; H contains the high byte. Due to the
addition of the H register, this addressing mode is not limited to the first 256 bytes of memory as in the
M68HC05.
If none of the M68HC08 instructions that modify H are used (AIX; CBEQ (ix+); LDHX; MOV (dir/ix+); MOV
(ix+/dir); DIV; PULH; TSX), then the H value will be $00, which ensures complete source code
compatibility with M68HC05 Family instructions.
Indexed, no offset instructions can move a pointer through a table or hold the address of a frequently used
RAM or input/output (I/O) location. Table 4-5 lists instructions that use indexed, no offset addressing.
4.2.6 Indexed, 8-Bit Offset
Indexed, 8-bit offset instructions are 2-byte instructions that can access data with variable addresses. The
CPU adds the unsigned bytes in H:X to the unsigned byte following the opcode. The sum is the effective
address of the operand.
If none of the M68HC08 instructions that modify H are used (AIX; CBEQ (ix+); LDHX; MOV (dir/ix+); MOV
(ix+/dir); DIV; PULH; TSX), then the H value will be $00, which ensures complete source code
compatibility with the M68HC05 Family instructions.
Indexed, 8-bit offset instructions are useful in selecting the kth element in an n-element table. The table
can begin anywhere and can extend as far as the address map allows. The k value would typically be in
H:X, and the address of the beginning of the table would be in the byte following the opcode. Using H:X
in this way, this addressing mode is limited to the first 256 addresses in memory. Tables can be located
anywhere in the address map when H:X is used as the base address, and the byte following is the offset.
Table 4-5 lists the instructions that use indexed, 8-bit offset addressing.
4.2.7 Indexed, 16-Bit Offset
Indexed, 16-bit offset instructions are 3-byte instructions that can access data with variable addresses at
any location in memory. The CPU adds the unsigned contents of H:X to the 16-bit unsigned word formed
by the two bytes following the opcode. The sum is the effective address of the operand. The first byte after
the opcode is the most significant byte of the 16-bit offset; the second byte is the least significant byte of
the offset.
As with direct and extended addressing, most assemblers determine the shortest form of indexed
addressing. Table 4-5 lists the instructions that use indexed, 16-bit offset addressing.

This example uses the JMP (unconditional jump) instruction to show the three different types of indexed
addressing.

4.2.8 Stack Pointer, 8-Bit Offset
Stack pointer, 8-bit offset instructions are 3-byte instructions that address operands in much the same
way as indexed 8-bit offset instructions, only they add the 8-bit offset to the value of the stack pointer
instead of the index register.
The stack pointer, 8-bit offset addressing mode permits easy access of data on the stack. The CPU adds
the unsigned byte in the 16-bit stack pointer (SP) register to the unsigned byte following the opcode. The
sum is the effective address of the operand.
If interrupts are disabled, this addressing mode allows the stack pointer to be used as a second index
register. Table 4-6 lists the instructions that can be used in the stack pointer, 8-bit offset addressing mode.
Stack pointer relative instructions require a pre-byte for access. Consequently, all SP relative instructions
take one cycle longer than their index relative counterparts.
4.2.9 Stack Pointer, 16-Bit Offset
Stack pointer, 16-bit offset instructions are 4-byte instructions used to access data relative to the stack
pointer with variable addresses at any location in memory. The CPU adds the unsigned contents of the
16-bit stack pointer register to the 16-bit unsigned word formed by the two bytes following the opcode.
The sum is the effective address of the operand.
As with direct and extended addressing, most assemblers determine the shortest form of stack pointer
addressing. Due to the pre-byte, stack pointer relative instructions take one cycle longer than their index
relative counterparts. Table 4-6 lists the instructions that can be used in the stack pointer, 16-bit offset
addressing mode.
Examples of the 8-bit and 16-bit offset stack pointer addressing modes are shown here. The first example
stores the value of $20 in location $10, SP = $10 + $FF = $10F and then decrements that location until
equal to zero. The second example loads the accumulator with the contents of memory location $250,
SP = $250 + $FF = $34F.

4.2.10 Relative
All conditional branch instructions use relative addressing to evaluate the resultant effective address (EA).
The CPU evaluates the conditional branch destination by adding the signed byte following the opcode to
the contents of the program counter. If the branch condition is true, the PC is loaded with the EA. If the
branch condition is not true, the CPU goes to the next instruction. The offset is a signed, two's
complement byte that gives a branching range of 128 to +127 bytes from the address of the next location
after the branch instruction.
Four new branch opcodes test the N, Z, and V (overflow) bits to determine the relative signed values of
the operands. These new opcodes are BLT, BGT, BLE, and BGE and are designed to be used with signed
arithmetic operations.
When using most assemblers, the programmer does not need to calculate the offset, because the
assembler determines the proper offset and verifies that it is within the span of the branch.
Table 4-7 lists the instructions that use relative addressing.
This example contains two relative addressing mode instructions: BLT (branch if less than, signed
operation) and BRA (branch always). In this example, the value in the accumulator is compared to the
signed value 2. Because #1 is greater than 2, the branch to TAG will not occur.

4.2.11 Memory-to-Memory Immediate to Direct
Move immediate to direct (MOV imm/dir) is a 3-byte, 4-cycle addressing mode generally used to initialize
variables and registers in the direct page. The operand in the byte immediately following the opcode is
stored in the direct page location addressed by the second byte following the opcode. The MOV
instruction associated with this addressing mode does not affect the accumulator value. This example
shows that by eliminating the accumulator from the data transfer process, the number of execution cycles
decreases from 9 to 4 for a similar immediate to direct operation.
4.2.12 Memory-to-Memory Direct to Direct
Move direct to direct (MOV dir/dir) is a 3-byte, 5-cycle addressing mode generally used in
register-to-register movements of data from within the direct page. The operand in the direct page location
addressed by the byte immediately following the opcode is stored in the direct page location addressed

by the second byte following the opcode. The MOV instruction associated with this addressing mode does
not affect the accumulator value. As with the previous addressing mode,
eliminating the accumulator from the data transfer process reduces the number of execution cycles from
10 to 5 for similar direct-to-direct operations (see example). This savings can be substantial for a program
containing numerous register-to-register data transfers.
4.2.13 Memory-to-Memory Indexed to Direct with Post Increment
Move indexed to direct, post increment (MOV ix+/dir) is a 2-byte, 4-cycle addressing mode generally used
to transfer tables addressed by the index register to a register in the direct page. The tables can be located
anywhere in the 64-Kbyte map and can be any size. This instruction does not affect the accumulator
value. The operand addressed by H:X is stored in the direct page location addressed by the byte following
the opcode. H:X is incremented after the move.
This addressing mode is effective for transferring a buffer stored in RAM to a serial transmit register, as
shown in the following example. Table 4-8 lists the memory-to-memory move instructions.
NOTE
Move indexed to direct, post increment instructions will increment H if X is
incremented past $FF.
This example illustrates an interrupt-driven SCI transmit service routine supporting a circular buffer.

4.2.14 Memory-to-Memory Direct to Indexed with Post Increment
Move direct to indexed, post increment (MOV dir/ix+) is a 2-byte, 4-cycle addressing mode generally used

and can be any size. The instruction associated with this addressing mode does not affect the
accumulator value. The operand in the direct page location addressed by the byte immediately following
the opcode is stored in the location addressed by H:X. H:X is incremented after the move.
An example of this addressing mode would be in filling a serial receive buffer located in RAM from the
receive data register. Table 4-8 lists the memory-to-memory move instructions.

Instruction Set
5.1 Introduction
This section contains detailed information for all HC08 Family instructions. The instructions are
arranged in alphabetical order with the instruction mnemonic set in larger type for easy reference.
5.2 Nomenclature
This nomenclature is used in the instruction descriptions throughout this section.
Operators
( ) = Contents of register or memory location shown inside parentheses
= Is loaded with (read: gets)
& = Boolean AND
| = Boolean OR
= Boolean exclusive-OR
= Multiply
= Divide
: = Concatenate
+ = Add
= Negate (twos complement)
= Sign extend
CPU registers
A = Accumulator
CCR = Condition code register
H = Index register, higher order (most significant) eight bits
X = Index register, lower order (least significant) eight bits
PC = Program counter
PCH = Program counter, higher order (most significant) eight bits
PCL = Program counter, lower order (least significant) eight bits
SP = Stack pointer
Instruction Set
Memory and addressing
M = A memory location or absolute data, depending on addressing mode
M:M + $0001 = A 16-bit value in two consecutive memory locations. The higher-order (most
significant) eight bits are located at the address of M, and the lower-order (least
significant) eight bits are located at the next higher sequential address.
rel = The relative offset, which is the twos complement number stored in the last byte of
machine code corresponding to a branch instruction
Condition code register (CCR) bits
V = Twos complement overflow indicator, bit 7
H = Half carry, bit 4
I = Interrupt mask, bit 3
N = Negative indicator, bit 2
Z = Zero indicator, bit 1
C = Carry/borrow, bit 0 (carry out of bit 7)
Bit status BEFORE execution of an instruction (n = 7, 6, 5, ... 0)
For 2-byte operations such as LDHX, STHX, and CPHX, n = 15 refers to bit 15 of the 2-byte word or
bit 7 of the most significant (first) byte.
Mn = Bit n of memory location used in operation
An = Bit n of accumulator
Hn = Bit n of index register H
Xn = Bit n of index register X
bn = Bit n of the source operand (M, A, or X)
Bit status AFTER execution of an instruction
For 2-byte operations such as LDHX, STHX, and CPHX, n = 15 refers to bit 15 of the 2-byte word or
bit 7 of the most significant (first) byte.
Rn = Bit n of the result of an operation (n = 7, 6, 5, 0)
CCR activity figure notation
= Bit not affected
0 = Bit forced to 0
1 = Bit forced to 1
= Bit set or cleared according to results of operation
U = Undefined after the operation
Nomenclature
Machine coding notation
dd = Low-order eight bits of a direct address $0000$00FF (high byte assumed to be $00)
ee = Upper eight bits of 16-bit offset
ff = Lower eight bits of 16-bit offset or 8-bit offset
ii = One byte of immediate data
jj = High-order byte of a 16-bit immediate data value
kk = Low-order byte of a 16-bit immediate data value
hh = High-order byte of 16-bit extended address
ll = Low-order byte of 16-bit extended address
rr = Relative offset
Source forms
The instruction detail pages provide only essential information about assembler source forms.
Assemblers generally support a number of assembler directives, allow definition of program
labels, and have special conventions for comments. For complete information about writing
source files for a particular assembler, refer to the documentation provided by the assembler
vendor.
Typically, assemblers are flexible about the use of spaces and tabs. Often, any number of spaces
or tabs can be used where a single space is shown on the glossary pages. Spaces and tabs are
also normally allowed before and after commas. When program labels are used, there must also
be at least one tab or space before all instruction mnemonics. This required space is not apparent
in the source forms.
Everything in the source forms columns, except expressions in italic characters, is literal
information which must appear in the assembly source file exactly as shown. The initial 3- to
5-letter mnemonic is always a literal expression. All commas, pound signs (#), parentheses, and
plus signs (+) are literal characters.
The definition of a legal label or expression varies from assembler to assembler. Assemblers also
vary in the way CPU registers are specified. Refer to assembler documentation for detailed
information. Recommended register designators are a, A, h, H, x, X, sp, and SP.
n Any label or expression that evaluates to a single integer in the range 07
opr8i Any label or expression that evaluates to an 8-bit immediate value
opr16i Any label or expression that evaluates to a 16-bit immediate value
opr8a Any label or expression that evaluates to an 8-bit value. The instruction treats this
8-bit value as the low order eight bits of an address in the direct page of the 64-Kbyte
address space ($00xx).
opr16a Any label or expression that evaluates to a 16-bit value. The instruction treats this
value as an address in the 64-Kbyte address space.
oprx8 Any label or expression that evaluates to an unsigned 8-bit value; used for indexed
addressing
oprx16 Any label or expression that evaluates to a 16-bit value. Since the MC68HC08S has a
16-bit address bus, this can be either a signed or an unsigned value.
Instruction Set
rel Any label or expression that refers to an address that is within 128 to +127 locations
from the next address after the last byte of object code for the current instruction. The
assembler will calculate the 8-bit signed offset and include it in the object code for this
instruction.
Address modes
INH = Inherent (no operands)
IMM = 8-bit or 16-bit immediate
DIR = 8-bit direct
EXT = 16-bit extended
IX = 16-bit indexed no offset
IX+ = 16-bit indexed no offset, post increment (CBEQ and MOV only)
IX1 = 16-bit indexed with 8-bit offset from H:X
IX1+ = 16-bit indexed with 8-bit offset, post increment (CBEQ only)
IX2 = 16-bit indexed with 16-bit offset from H:X
REL = 8-bit relative offset
SP1 = Stack pointer relative with 8-bit offset
SP2 = Stack pointer relative with 16-bit offset
5.3 Convention Definitions
Set refers specifically to establishing logic level 1 on a bit or bits.
Cleared refers specifically to establishing logic level 0 on a bit or bits.
A specific bit is referred to by mnemonic and bit number. A7 is bit 7 of accumulator A.
A range of bits is referred to by mnemonic and the bit numbers that define the range. A [7:4] are
bits 7 to 4 of the accumulator.
Parentheses indicate the contents of a register or memory location, rather than the register or
memory location itself. (A) is the contents of the accumulator. In Boolean expressions,
parentheses have the traditional mathematical meaning.
5.4 Instruction Set
The following pages summarize each instruction, including operation and description, condition
codes and Boolean formulae, and a table with source forms, addressing modes, machine code,
and cycles.
Instruction Set
ADC Add with Carry ADC
Operation
A (A) + (M) + (C)
Description
Adds the contents of the C bit to the sum of the contents of A and M and places the result in A.
This operation is useful for addition of operands that are larger than eight bits.
Condition Codes and Boolean Formulae
V: A7&M7&R7 | A7&M7&R7
Set if a twos compement overflow resulted from the operation; cleared otherwise
H: A3&M3 | M3&R3 | R3&A3
Set if there was a carry from bit 3; cleared otherwise
N: R7
Set if MSB of result is 1; cleared otherwise
Z: R7&R6&R5&R4&R3&R2&R1&R0
Set if result is $00; cleared otherwise
C: A7&M7 | M7&R7 | R7&A7
Set if there was a carry from the most significant bit (MSB) of the result; cleared otherwise

AIS Add Immediate Value (Signed) to Stack Pointer AIS
Operation
SP (SP) + (16 M)
Description
Adds the immediate operand to the stack pointer (SP). The immediate value is an 8-bit twos
complement signed operand. The 8-bit operand is
sign-extended to 16 bits prior to the addition. The AIS instruction can be used to create and
remove a stack frame buffer that is used to store temporary variables.
This instruction does not affect any condition code bits so status information can be passed to or
from a subroutine or C function and allocation or deallocation of space for local variables will not
disturb that status information.

Description
Adds an immediate operand to the 16-bit index register, formed by the concatenation of the H and
X registers. The immediate operand is an 8-bit twos complement signed offset. The 8-bit operand
is sign- extended to 16 bits prior to the addition.
This instruction does not affect any condition code bits so index register pointer calculations do
not disturb the surrounding code which may rely on the state of CCR status bits.

perform a subtraction with two operands and produce an internal result without changing the
original operands. If the two operands were equal, the internal result of the subtraction for the

This instruction is typically used to see if a particular bit, or any of several bits, in a byte are 1s. A
mask value is prepared with 1s in any bit positions that are to be checked. This mask may be in
accumulator A or memory and the unknown value to be checked will be in memory or the
accumulator A, respectively. After the BIT instruction, a BNE instruction will branch if any bits in
the tested location that correspond to 1s in the mask were 1s.

A source program specifies the destination of a branch instruction by its absolute address, either
as a numerical value or as a symbol or expression which can be numerically evaluated by the
assembler. The assembler calculates the 8-bit relative offset rel from this absolute address and
the current value of the location counter.

Table 5-1 is a summary of all branch instructions.
During program execution, if the tested condition is true, the twos complement offset is
sign-extended to a 16-bit value which is added to the current program counter. This causes
program execution to continue at the address specified as the branch destination. If the tested
condition is not true, the program simply continues to the next instruction after the branch.

Description
Never branches. In effect, this instruction can be considered a 2-byte no operation (NOP)
requiring three cycles for execution. Its inclusion in the instruction set provides a complement for
the BRA instruction. The BRN instruction is useful during program debugging to negate the effect
of another branch instruction without disturbing the offset byte.
This instruction can be useful in instruction-based timing delays. Instruction-based timing delays
are usually discouraged because such code is not portable to systems with different clock speeds.

Push (PCH); SP (SP) $0001Push high half of return address
PC (PC) + rel Load PC with start address of
requested subroutine
Description
The program counter is incremented by 2 from the opcode address (so it points to the opcode of
the next instruction which will be the return address). The least significant byte of the contents of
the program counter (low-order return address) is pushed onto the stack. The stack pointer is then
decremented by 1. The most significant byte of the contents of the program counter (high-order
return address) is pushed onto the stack. The stack pointer is then decremented by 1. A branch
then occurs to the location specified by the branch offset. See the BRA instruction for further
details of the execution of the branch.

CBEQ Compare and Branch if Equal CBEQ
Operation
For DIR or IMM modes:if (A) = (M), PC (PC) + $0003 + rel
Or for IX+ mode: if (A) = (M); PC (PC) + $0002 + rel
Or for SP1 mode: if (A) = (M); PC (PC) + $0004 + rel
Or for CBEQX:if (X) = (M); PC (PC) + $0003 + rel
Description
CBEQ compares the operand with the accumulator (or index register for CBEQX instruction)
against the contents of a memory location and causes a branch if the register (A or X) is equal to
the memory contents. The CBEQ instruction combines CMP and BEQ for faster table lookup
routines and condition codes are not changed.
The IX+ variation of the CBEQ instruction compares the operand addressed by H:X to A and
causes a branch if the operands are equal. H:X is then incremented regardless of whether a
branch is taken. The IX1+ variation of CBEQ operates the same way except that an 8-bit offset is
added to H:X to form the effective address of the operand.

ROL Rotate Left through Carry ROL
Operation
Description
Shifts all bits of A, X, or M one place to the left. Bit 0 is loaded from the C bit. The C bit is loaded
from the most significant bit of A, X, or M. The rotate instructions include the carry bit to allow
extension of the shift and rotate instructions to multiple bytes. For example, to shift a 24-bit value
left one bit, the sequence (ASL LOW, ROL MID, ROL HIGH) could be used, where LOW, MID,
and HIGH refer to the low-order, middle, and high-order bytes of the 24-bit value, respectively.

instructions to multiple bytes. For example, to shift a 24-bit value right one bit, the sequence (LSR
HIGH, ROR MID, ROR LOW) could be used, where LOW, MID, and HIGH refer to the low-order,
middle, and high-order bytes of the 24-bit value, respectively.

RSP Reset Stack Pointer RSP
Operation
SPL $FF; SPH is unchanged
Description
For M68HC05 compatibility, the M68HC08 RSP instruction only sets the least significant byte of
SP to $FF. The most significant byte is unaffected.
In most M68HC05 MCUs, RAM only goes to $00FF. In most HC08s, however, RAM extends
beyond $00FF. Therefore, do not locate the stack in direct address space which is more valuable
for commonly accessed variables. In new HC08 programs, it is more appropriate to initialize the
stack pointer to the address of the last location (highest address) in the on-chip RAM, shortly after
reset. This code segment demonstrates a typical method for initializing SP.

Operation

Description
Sets the interrupt mask bit in the condition code register (CCR). The microprocessor is inhibited
from responding to interrupts while the I bit is set. The I bit actually changes at the end of the cycle
where SEI executed. This is too late to stop an interrupt that arrived during execution of the SEI
instruction so it is possible that an interrupt request could be serviced after the SEI instruction
before the next instruction after SEI is executed. The global I-bit interrupt mask takes effect before
the next instruction can be completed.

STOP Enable IRQ Pin, Stop Oscillator STOP
Operation
I bit 0; stop oscillator
Description
Reduces power consumption by eliminating all dynamic power dissipation. (See module
documentation for module reactions to STOP instruction.) The external interrupt pin is enabled
and the I bit in the condition code register (CCR) is cleared to enable the external interrupt. Finally,
the oscillator is inhibited to put the MCU into the STOP condition.
When either the RESET pin or IRQ pin goes low, the oscillator is enabled. A delay of 4095
processor clock cycles is imposed allowing the oscillator to stabilize. The reset vector or interrupt
request vector is fetched and the associated service routine is executed.
External interrupts are enabled after a STOP command.

index register, and accumulator are pushed onto the stack. The condition code register (CCR) bits
are then pushed onto the stack, with bits V, H, I, N, Z, and C going into bit positions 7 and 40. Bit
positions 6 and 5 contain 1s. The stack pointer is decremented by 1 after each byte of data is
stored on the stack. The interrupt mask bit is then set. The program counter is then loaded with
the address stored in the SWI vector located at memory locations $FFFC and $FFFD. This
instruction is not maskable by the I bit.

WAIT Enable Interrupts; Stop Processor WAIT
Operation
I bit 0; inhibit CPU clocking until interrupted
Description
Reduces power consumption by eliminating dynamic power dissipation in some portions of the
MCU. The timer, the timer prescaler, and the on-chip peripherals continue to operate (if enabled)
because they are potential sources of an interrupt. Wait causes enabling of interrupts by clearing
the I bit in the CCR and stops clocking of processor circuits.
Interrupts from on-chip peripherals may be enabled or disabled by local control bits prior to
execution of the WAIT instruction.
When either the RESET or IRQ pin goes low or when any on-chip system requests interrupt
service, the processor clocks are enabled, and the reset, IRQ, or other interrupt service request
is processed.

Glossary
$xxxx The digits following the $ are in hexadecimal format.
#xxxx The digits following the # indicate an immediate operand.
A Accumulator. See accumulator.
accumulator (A) An 8-bit general-purpose register in the CPU08. The CPU08 uses the accumulator
to hold operands and results of arithmetic and non-arithmetic operations.
address bus The set of conductors used to select a specific memory location so that the CPU can
write information into the memory location or read its contents.
addressing mode The way that the CPU obtains (addresses) the information needed to complete an
instruction. The M68HC08 CPU has 16 addressing modes.
algorithm A set of specific procedures by which a solution is obtained in a finite number of steps,
often used in numerical calculation.
ALU Arithmetic logic unit. See arithmetic logic unit.
arithmetic logic unit (ALU) The portion of the CPU of a computer where mathematical and logical
operations take place. Other circuitry decodes each instruction and configures the ALU to
perform the necessary arithmetic or logical operations at each step of an instruction.
assembly language A method used by programmers for representing machine instructions (binary
data) in a more convenient form. Each machine instruction is given a simple, short name, called
a mnemonic (or memory aid), which has a one-to-one correspondence with the machine
instruction. The mnemonics are translated into an object code program that a microcontroller can
use.
ASCII American Standard Code for Information Interchange. A widely accepted correlation between
alphabetic and numeric characters and specific 7-bit binary numbers.
asynchronous Refers to circuitry and operations without common clock signals.
BCD Binary-coded decimal. See binary-coded decimal.
binary The binary number system using 2 as its base and using only the digits 0 and 1. Binary is the
numbering system used by computers because any quantity can be represented by a series of
1s and 0s. Electrically, these 1s and 0s are represented by voltage levels of approximately V
DD

(input) and V
SS
(ground), respectively.
binary-coded decimal (BCD) A notation that uses binary values to represent decimal quantities.
Each BCD digit uses four binary bits. Six of the possible 16 binary combinations are considered
illegal.
bit A single binary digit. A bit can hold a single value of 0 or 1.
Boolean A mathematical system of representing logic through a series of algebraic equations that
can only be true or false, using operators such as AND, OR, and NOT.
Glossary
branch instructions Computer instructions that cause the CPU to continue processing at a memory
location other than the next sequential address. Most branch instructions are conditional. That is,
the CPU continues to the next sequential address (no branch) if a condition is false, or continue
to some other address (branch) if the condition is true.
bus A collection of logic lines (conductor paths) used to transfer data.
byte A set of exactly eight binary bits.
C Abbreviation for carry/borrow in the condition code register of the CPU08. The CPU08 sets the
carry/borrow flag when an addition operation produces a carry out of bit 7 of the accumulator or
when a subtraction operation requires a borrow. Some logical operations and data manipulation
instructions also clear or set the C flag (as in bit test and branch instructions and shifts and
rotates).
CCR Abbreviation for condition code register in the CPU08. See condition code register.
central processor unit (CPU) The primary functioning unit of any computer system. The CPU
controls the execution of instructions.
checksum A value that results from adding a series of binary numbers. When exchanging information
between computers, a checksum gives an indication about the integrity of the data transfer. If
values were transferred incorrectly, it is unlikely that the checksum would match the value that
was expected.
clear To establish logic 0 state on a bit or bits; the opposite of set.
clock A square wave signal used to sequence events in a computer.
condition code register (CCR) An 8-bit register in the CPU08 that contains the interrupt mask bit
and five bits (flags) that indicate the results of the instruction just executed.
control unit One of two major units of the CPU. The control unit contains logic functions that
synchronize the machine and direct various operations. The control unit decodes instructions and
generates the internal control signals that perform the requested operations. The outputs of the
control unit drive the execution unit, which contains the arithmetic logic unit (ALU), CPU registers,
and bus interface.
CPU Central processor unit. See central processor unit.
CPU08 The central processor unit of the M68HC08 Family.
CPU cycles A CPU clock cycle is one period of the internal bus-rate clock, normally derived by
dividing a crystal oscillator source by two or more so the high and low times are equal. The length
of time required to execute an instruction is measured in CPU clock cycles.
CPU registers Memory locations that are wired directly into the CPU logic instead of being part of the
addressable memory map. The CPU always has direct access to the information in these
registers. The CPU registers in an M68HC08 are:
A (8-bit accumulator)
H:X (16-bit accumulator)
SP (16-bit stack pointer)
PC (16-bit program counter)
CCR (condition code register containing the V, H, I, N, Z, and C bits)
Glossary
cycles See CPU cycles.
data bus A set of conductors used to convey binary information from a CPU to a memory location or
from a memory location to a CPU.
decimal Base 10 numbering system that uses the digits zero through nine.
direct address Any address within the first 256 addresses of memory ($0000$00FF). The
high-order byte of these addresses is always $00. Special instructions allow these addresses to
be accessed using only the low-order byte of their address. These instructions automatically fill in
the assumed $00 value for the high-order byte of the address.
direct addressing mode Direct addressing mode uses a program-supplied value for the low-order
byte of the address of an operand. The high-order byte of the operand address is assumed to be
$00 and so it does not have to be explicitly specified. Most direct addressing mode instructions
can access any of the first 256 memory addresses.
direct memory access (DMA) One of a number of modules that handle a variety of control functions
in the modular M68HC08 Family. The DMA can perform interrupt-driven and software-initiated
data transfers between any two CPU-addressable locations. Each DMA channel can
independently transfer data between any addresses in the memory map. DMA transfers reduce
CPU overhead required for data movement interrupts.
direct page The first 256 bytes of memory ($0000$00FF); also called page 0.
DMA Direct memory access. See direct memory access.
EA Effective address. See effective address.
effective address (EA) The address where an instruction operand is located. The addressing mode
of an instruction determines how the CPU calculates the effective address of the operand.
EPROM Erasable, programmable, read-only memory. A non-volatile type of memory that can be
erased by exposure to an ultraviolet light source.
EU Execution unit. See execution unit.
execution unit (EU) One of the two major units of the CPU containing the arithmetic logic unit (ALU),
CPU registers, and bus interface. The outputs of the control unit drive the execution unit.
extended addressing mode In this addressing mode, the high-order byte of the address of the
operand is located in the next memory location after the opcode. The low-order byte of the
operand address is located in the second memory location after the opcode. Extended
addressing mode instructions can access any address in a 64-Kbyte memory map.
H Abbreviation for the upper byte of the 16-bit index register (H:X) in the CPU08.
H Abbreviation for half-carry in the condition code register of the CPU08. This bit indicates a carry
from the low-order four bits of the accumulator value to the high-order four bits. The half-carry bit
is required for binary-coded decimal arithmetic operations. The decimal adjust accumulator
(DAA) instruction uses the state of the H and C flags to determine the appropriate correction
factor.
Glossary
hexadecimal Base 16 numbering system that uses the digits 0 through 9 and the letters A through F.
One hexadecimal digit can exactly represent a 4-bit binary value. Hexadecimal is used by people
to represent binary values because a 2-digit number is easier to use than the equivalent 8-digit
number.
high order The leftmost digit(s) of a number; the opposite of low order.
H:X Abbreviation for the 16-bit index register in the CPU08. The upper byte of H:X is called H. The
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.
I Abbreviation for interrupt mask bit in the condition code register of the CPU08. When I is set, all
interrupts are disabled. When I is cleared, interrupts are enabled.
immediate addressing mode In immediate addressing mode, the operand is located in the next
memory location(s) after the opcode. The immediate value is one or two bytes, depending on the
size of the register involved in the instruction.
index register (H:X) A 16-bit register in the CPU08. The upper byte of H:X is called H. The 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.
indexed addressing mode Indexed addressing mode instructions access data with variable
addresses. The effective address of the operand is determined by the current value of the H:X
register added to a 0-, 8-, or 16-bit value (offset) in the instruction. There are separate opcodes
for 0-, 8-, and 16-bit variations of indexed mode instructions, and so the CPU knows how many
additional memory locations to read after the opcode.
indexed, post increment addressing mode In this addressing mode, the effective address of the
operand is determined by the current value of the index register, added to a 0- or 8-bit value
(offset) in the instruction, after which the index register is incremented. Operands with variable
addresses can be addressed with the 8-bit offset instruction.
inherent addressing mode The inherent addressing mode has no operand because the opcode
contains all the information necessary to carry out the instruction. Most inherent instructions are
one byte long.
input/output (I/O) Input/output interfaces between a computer system and the external world. 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.
instructions Instructions are operations that a CPU can perform. Instructions are expressed by
programmers as assembly language mnemonics. A CPU interprets an opcode and its associated
operand(s) and instruction(s).
instruction set The instruction set of a CPU is the set of all operations that the CPU can perform. An
instruction set is often represented with a set of shorthand mnemonics, such as LDA, meaning
load accumulator (A). Another representation of an instruction set is with a set of opcodes that
are recognized by the CPU.
Glossary
interrupt Interrupts provide a means to temporarily suspend normal program execution so that the
CPU is freed to service sets of instructions in response to requests (interrupts) from peripheral
devices. Normal program execution can be resumed later from its original point of departure. The
CPU08 can process up to 128 separate interrupt sources, including a software interrupt (SWI).
I/O Input/output. See input/output.
IRQ Interrupt request. The overline indicates an active-low signal.
least significant bit (LSB) The rightmost digit of a binary value; the opposite of most significant bit
(MSB).
logic 1 A voltage level approximately equal to the input power voltage (V
DD
).
logic 0 A voltage level approximately equal to the ground voltage (V
SS
).
low order The rightmost digit(s) of a number; the opposite of high order.
LS Least significant.
LSB Least significant bit. See least significant bit.
M68HC08 The Motorola Family of 8-bit MCUs.
machine codes The binary codes processed by the CPU as instructions. Machine code includes both
opcodes and operand data.
MCU Microcontroller unit. See microcontroller unit.
memory location In the M68HC08, each memory location holds one byte of data and has a unique
address. To store information into a memory location, the CPU places the address of the location
on the address bus, the data information on the data bus, and asserts the write signal. To read
information from a memory location, the CPU places the address of the location on the address
bus and asserts the read signal. In response to the read signal, the selected memory location
places its data onto the data bus.
memory map A pictorial representation of all memory locations in a computer system.
memory-to-memory addressing mode In this addressing mode, the accumulator has been
eliminated from the data transfer process, thereby reducing execution cycles. This addressing
mode, therefore, provides rapid data transfers because it does not use the accumulator and
associated load and store instructions. There are four memory-to-memory addressing mode
instructions. Depending on the instruction, operands are found in the byte following the opcode,
in a direct page location addressed by the byte immediately following the opcode, or in a location
addressed by the index register.
microcontroller unit (MCU) A complete computer system, including a CPU, memory, a clock
oscillator, and input/output (I/O) on a single integrated circuit.
mnemonic Three to five letters that represent a computer operation. For example, the mnemonic
form of the load accumulator instruction is LDA.
most significant bit (MSB) The leftmost digit of a binary value; the opposite of least significant bit
(LSB).
MS Abbreviation for most significant.
Glossary
MSB Most significant bit. See most significant bit.
N Abbreviation for negative, a bit in the condition code register of the CPU08. The CPU sets the
negative flag when an arithmetic operation, logical operation, or data manipulation produces a
negative result.
nibble Half a byte; four bits.
object code The output from an assembler or compiler that is itself executable machine code or is
suitable for processing to produce executable machine code.
one A logic high level, a voltage level approximately equal to the input power voltage (V
DD
).
ones complement An infrequently used form of signed binary numbers. Negative numbers are
simply the complement of their positive counterparts. Ones complement is the result of a
bit-by-bit complement of a binary word: All 1s are changed to 0s and all 0s changed to 1s. Ones
complement is twos complement without the increment.
opcode A binary code that instructs the CPU to do a specific operation in a specific way.
operand The fundamental quantity on which a mathematical operation is performed. Usually a
statement consists of an operator and an operand. The operator may indicate an add instruction;
the operand therefore will indicate what is to be added.
oscillator A circuit that produces a constant frequency square wave that is used by the computer as
a timing and sequencing reference.
page 0 The first 256 bytes of memory ($0000$00FF). Also called direct page.
PC Program counter. See program counter.
pointer Pointer register. An index register is sometimes called a pointer register because its contents
are used in the calculation of the address of an operand, and therefore points to the operand.
program A set of computer instructions that cause a computer to perform a desired operation or
operations.
programming model The registers of a particular CPU.
program counter (PC) A 16-bit register in the CPU08. The PC register holds the address of the next
instruction or operand that the CPU will use.
pull The act of reading a value from the stack. In the M68HC08, a value is pulled by the following
sequence of operations. First, the stack pointer register is incremented so that it points to the last
value saved on the stack. Next, the value at the address contained in the stack pointer register is
read into the CPU.
push The act of storing a value at the address contained in the stack pointer register and then
decrementing the stack pointer so that it points to the next available stack location.
random access memory (RAM) A type of memory that can be read or written by the CPU. The
contents of a RAM memory location remain valid until the CPU writes a different value or until
power is turned off.
RAM Random access memory. See random-access memory.
read To transfer the contents of a memory location to the CPU.
Glossary
read-only memory A type of memory that can be read but cannot be changed (written) by the CPU.
The contents of ROM must be specified before manufacturing the MCU.
registers Memory locations wired directly into the CPU logic instead of being part of the addressable
memory map. The CPU always has direct access to the information in these registers. The CPU
registers in an M68HC08 are:
A (8-bit accumulator)
(H:X) (16-bit index register)
SP (16-bit stack pointer)
PC (16-bit program counter)
CCR (condition code register containing the V, H, I, N, Z, and C bits)
Memory locations that hold status and control information for on-chip peripherals are called
input/output (I/O) and control registers.
relative addressing mode Relative addressing mode is used to calculate the destination address for
branch instructions. If the branch condition is true, the signed 8-bit value after the opcode is
added to the current value of the program counter to get the address where the CPU will fetch the
next instruction. If the branch condition is false, the effective address is the content of the
program counter.
reset Reset is used to force a computer system to a known starting point and to force on-chip
peripherals to known starting conditions.
ROM Read-only memory. See read-only memory.
set To establish a logic 1 state on a bit or bits; the opposite of clear.
signed A form of binary number representation accommodating both positive and negative numbers.
The most significant bit is used to indicate whether the number is positive or negative, normally
zero for positive and one for negative, and the other seven bits indicate the magnitude.
SIM System integration module. See system integration module.
SP Stack pointer. See stack pointer.
stack A mechanism for temporarily saving CPU register values during interrupts and subroutines.
The CPU maintains this structure with the stack pointer (SP) register, which contains the address
of the next available (empty) storage location on the stack. When a subroutine is called, the CPU
pushes (stores) the low-order and high-order bytes of the return address on the stack before
starting the subroutine instructions. When the subroutine is done, a return from subroutine (RTS)
instruction causes the CPU to recover the return address from the stack and continue processing
where it left off before the subroutine. Interrupts work in the same way except that all CPU
registers are saved on the stack instead of just the program counter.
stack pointer (SP) A 16-bit register in the CPU08 containing the address of the next available
(empty) storage on the stack.
stack pointer addressing mode Stack pointer (SP) addressing mode instructions operate like
indexed addressing mode instructions except that the offset is added to the stack pointer instead
of the index register (H:X). The effective address of the operand is formed by adding the
unsigned byte(s) in the stack pointer to the unsigned byte(s) following the opcode.
Glossary
subroutine A sequence of instructions to be used more than once in the course of a program. The
last instruction in a subroutine is a return-from-subroutine (RTS) instruction. At each place in the
main program where the subroutine instructions are needed, a jump or branch to subroutine
(JSR or BSR) instruction is used to call the subroutine. The CPU leaves the flow of the main
program to execute the instructions in the subroutine. When the RTS instruction is executed, the
CPU returns to the main program where it left off.
synchronous Refers to two or more things made to happen simultaneously in a system by means of
a common clock signal.
system integration module (SIM) One of a number of modules that handle a variety of control
functions in the modular M68HC08 Family. The SIM controls mode of operation, resets and
interrupts, and system clock generation.
table A collection or ordering of data (such as square root values) laid out in rows and columns and
stored in a computer memory as an array.
twos complement A means of performing binary subtraction using addition techniques. The most
significant bit of a twos complement number indicates the sign of the number (1 indicates
negative). The twos complement negative of a number is obtained by inverting each bit in the
number and then adding 1 to the result.
unsigned Refers to a binary number representation in which all numbers are assumed positive. With
signed binary, the most significant bit is used to indicate whether the number is positive or
negative, normally 0 for positive and 1 for negative, and the other seven bits are used to indicate
the magnitude.
variable A value that changes during the course of executing a program.
word Two bytes or 16 bits, treated as a unit.
write The transfer of a byte of data from the CPU to a memory location.
X Abbreviation for the lower byte of the index register (H:X) in the CPU08.
Z Abbreviation for zero, a bit in the condition code register of the CPU08. The CPU08 sets the zero
flag when an arithmetic operation, logical operation, or data manipulation produces a result of
$00.
zero A logic low level, a voltage level approximately equal to the ground voltage (V
SS
).
