CHAPTER 3 CPU

3.1.2Location of 16-bit Data on Memory

Upper digits of 16-bit data and stack data are stored in lower addresses on memory.

16-bit Data Storage State on RAM

When 16-bit data is written into RAM, the upper byte of the data is stored with a lower address and the lower byte of the data is stored with the next address. 16-bit data is read in the same manner.

Figure 3.1-2shows the location of 16-bit data on RAM.

16-bit Operand Storage State

When 16 bits are specified for operands in instructions, upper bytes are also stored in addresses close to operation codes (instructions) and lower bytes are stored in the following addresses.

Operands that indicate memory addresses and 16-bit immediate data are handled in the same manner as stated above.

Figure 3.1-3shows the locations of 16-bit data in instructions.

16-bit Data Storage State in Stack

The upper byte of data for a 16-bit register put in the stack due to an interrupt is also stored with a lower

address.
