S12Z Addressing Modes (Using as)

9.24.2.2 Addressing Modes

The following addressing modes are understood for the S12Z.

#number

#width:offset

Bit field instructions in the immediate mode require the width and offset to be specified. The width parameter specifies the number of bits in the field. It should be a number in the range [1,32]. Offset determines the position within the field where the operation should start. It should be a number in the range [0,31].

Relative

*symbol, or *[+-]digits

Program counter relative addresses have a width of 15 bits. Thus, they must be within the range [-32768, 32767].

Register

reg

Some instructions accept a register as an operand. In general, reg may be a data register (D0, D1 D7), the X register or the Y register.

A few instructions accept as an argument the stack pointer register (S), and/or the program counter (P).

Some very special instructions accept arguments which refer to the condition code register. For these arguments the syntax is CCR, CCH or CCL which refer to the complete condition code register, the condition code register high byte and the condition code register low byte respectively.

Absolute Direct

symbol, or digits

Absolute Indirect

[symbol, or digits]

Constant Offset Indexed

(number,reg)

Reg may be either X, Y, S or P or one of the data registers D0, D1 D7. If any of the registers D2 D5 are specified, then the register value is treated as a signed value. Otherwise it is treated as unsigned. Number may be any integer in the range [-8388608,8388607].

Offset Indexed Indirect

[number,reg]

Reg may be either X, Y, S or P. Number may be any integer in the range [-8388608,8388607].

Auto Pre-Increment/Pre-Decrement/Post-Increment/Post-Decrement

-reg, +reg, reg- or reg+

This addressing mode is typically used to access a value at an address, and simultaneously to increment/decrement the register pointing to that address. Thus reg may be any of the 24 bit registers X, Y, or S. Pre-increment and post-decrement are not available for register S (only post-increment and pre-decrement are available).

Register Offset Direct

(data-reg,reg)

Reg can be either X, Y, or S. Data-reg must be one of the data registers D0, D1 D7. If any of the registers D2 D5 are specified, then the register value is treated as a signed value. Otherwise it is treated as unsigned.

Register Offset Indirect

[data-reg,reg]

Reg can be either X or Y. Data-reg must be one of the data registers D0, D1 D7. If any of the registers D2 D5 are specified, then the register value is treated as a signed value. Otherwise it is treated as unsigned.

For example:

      trap    #197        ;; Immediate mode
        bra     *+49        ;; Relative mode
        bra     .L0         ;;     ditto
        jmp     0xFE0034    ;; Absolute direct mode
        jmp     [0xFD0012]  ;; Absolute indirect mode
        inc.b   (4,x)       ;; Constant offset indexed mode
        jsr     (45, d0)    ;;     ditto
        dec.w   [4,y]       ;; Constant offset indexed indirect mode
        clr.p   (-s)        ;; Pre-decrement mode
        neg.l   (d0, s)     ;; Register offset direct mode
        com.b   [d1, x]     ;; Register offset indirect mode
        psh     cch         ;; Register mode
