LDB(U) Load Byte From Memory With a 5-Bit Unsigned Constant Offset or Register Offset

Execution

Pipeline

The addressing arithmetic that performs the additions and subtractions defaults to linear mode. However, for A4−A7 and for B4−B7, the mode can be changed to circular mode by writing the appropriate value to the AMR (see section 2.7.3, page 2-10).

For LDB(U), the values are loaded into the 8 LSBs of dst. For LDB, the upper 24 bits of dst values are sign-extended; for LDBU, the upper 24 bits of dst are zero-filled. The s bit determines which file dst will be loaded into: s = 0 indicates dst will be loaded in the A register file and s = 1 indicates dst will be loaded in the B register file. The r bit should be cleared to 0.

Increments and decrements default to 1 and offsets default to 0 when no bracketed register or constant is specified. Loads that do no modification to the baseR can use the syntax *R. Square brackets, [ ], indicate that the ucst5 offset is left-shifted by 0. Parentheses, ( ), can be used to set a nonscaled, constant offset. You must type either brackets or parentheses around the specified offset, if you use the optional offset parameter.
