SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← ACCB
SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← ACCA
SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← CCR
Condition Codes:Affected according to the operation.
Description:This instruction ANDs an immediate byte with the condition code register which may clear the interrupt mask bits I and F, stacks the entire machine state on the hardware stack and then looks for an interrupt. When a non-masked interrupt occurs, no further machine state information need be saved before vectoring to the interrupt handling routine. This instruction replaced the MC6800 CLI WAI sequence, but does not place the buses in a high-impedance state. A FIRQ (fast interrupt request) may enter its interrupt handler with its entire machine state saved. The RTI (return from interrupt) instruction will automatically return the entire machine state after testing the E (entire) bit of the recovered condition code register.
Addressing Mode:Immediate
Comments:The following immediate values will have the following results:
FF = enable neither
EF = enable IRQ
BF = enable FIRQ
AF = enable both
DAADecimal Addition AdjustDAA

C-Set if a carry is generated or if the carry bit was set before the operation; cleared otherwise.
Description:The sequence of a single-byte add instruction on accumulator A (either ADDA or ADCA) and a following decimal addition adjust instruction results in a BCD addition with an appropriate carry bit. Both values to be added must be in proper BCD form (each nibble such that: 0 ≤ nibble ≤ 9). Multiple-precision addition must add the carry generated by this decimal addition adjust into the next higher digit during the add operation (ADCA) immediately prior to the next decimal addition adjust.

LEAS, LEAU: Not affected.
V-Not affected.
C-Not affected.
Description:Calculates the effective address from the indexed addressing mode and places the address in an indexable register.

LEAX and LEAY affect the Z (zero) bit to allow use of these registers as counters and for MC6800 INX/DEX compatibility.

LEAU and LEAS do not affect the Z bit to allow cleaning up the stack while returning the Z bit as a parameter to a calling routine, and also for MC6800 INS/DES compatibility.
Addressing Mode:Indexed
Comments:Due to the order in which effective addresses are calculated internally, the LEAX ,X++ and LEAX ,X+ do not add 2 and 1 (respectively) to the X register; but instead leave the X register unchanged. This also applies to the Y, U, and S registers. For the expected results, use the faster instruction LEAX 2,X and LEAX 1,X.

Some examples of LEA instruction uses are given in the following table.
InstructionOperationComment
LEAX10,XX+10 → XAdds 5-bit constant 10 to X
LEAX500,XX+500 → XAdds 16-bit constant 500 to X
LEAYA,YY+A → YAdds 8-bit accumulator to Y
LEAYD,YY+D → YAdds 16-bit D accumulator to Y
LEAU-10,UU-10 → USubtracts 10 from U
LEAS-10,SS-10 → SUsed to reserve area on stack
LEAS10,SS+10 → SUsed to 'clean up' stack

SYNCSynchronize to External EventSYNC
Source Form:SYNC
Operation:Stop processing instructions
Condition Codes:Not affected.
Description:When a SYNC instruction is excuted, the processor enters a synchronizing state, stops processing instructions, and waits for an interrupt. When an interrupt occurs, the synchronizing state is cleared and processing continues. If the interrupt is enabled, and it lasts three cycles or more, the processor will perform the interrupt routine. If the interrupt is masked or is shorter than three cycles, the processor simply continues to the next instruction. While in the synchronizing state, the address and data buses are in the high-impedance state.

This instruction provides software synchronization with a hardware process. Consider the following example for high-speed acquisition of data:
FASTSYNCWAIT FOR DATA
Interrupt!
LDADISCDATA FROM DISC AND CLEAR INTERRUPT
STA,X+PUT IN BUFFER
DECBCOUNT IT, DONE?
BNEFASTGO AGAIN IF NOT.
The synchronizing state is cleared by any interrupt. Of course, enabled interrupts at this point may destroy the data transfer and, as such, should represent only emergency conditions.

The same connection used for interrupt-driven I/O service may also be used for high-speed data transfers by setting the interrupt mask and using the SYNC instruction as the above example demonstrates.
Addressing Mode:Inherent
TFRTransfer Register to RegisterTFR
Source Form:TFR R1, R2
Operation:R1 → R2
Condition Codes:Not affected unless R2 is the condition code register.
Description:Transfers data between two designated registers. Bits 7-4 of the postbyte define the source register, while bits 3-0 define the destination register, as follows:
0000 =A:B   1000 =A
0001 =X1001 =B
0010 =Y1010 =CCR
0011 =US1011 =DPR
0100 =SP1100 =Undefined
0101 =PC1101 =Undefined
0110 =Undefined1110 =Undefined
0111 =Undefined1111 =Undefined
Only like size registers may be transferred. (8-bit to 8-bit, or 16-bit to 16-bit.)

Operation:TEMP ← M - 0
Condition Codes:
H-Not affected.
N-Set if the result is negative; cleared otherwise.
Z-Set if the result is zero; cleared otherwise.
V-Always cleared.
C-Not affected.
Description:Set the N (negative) and Z (zero) bits according to the contents of memory location M, and clear the V (overflow) bit. The TST instruction provides only minimum information when testing unsigned values; since no unsigned value is less than zero, BLO and BLS have no utility. While BHI could be used after TST, it provides exactly the same control as BNE, which is preferred. The signed branches are available.

FIRQFast Interrupt Request (Hardware Interrupt)FIRQ
Operation:
IFF F bit clear, then:SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← PCL
SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← PCH
Clear E (subset state is saved)
SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← CCR
Set F, I (mask further interrupts)
PC' ← (FFF6):(FFF7)
Condition Codes:Not affected.
Description:A FIRQ (fast interrupt request) with the F (fast interrupt request mask) bit clear causes this interrupt sequence to occur at the end of the current instruction. The program counter and condition code register are pushed onto the hardware stack. Program control is transferred through the fast interrupt request vector. An RTI (return from interrupt) instruction returns the processor to the original task. It is possible to enter the fast interrupt request routine with the entire machine state saved if the fast interrupt request occurs after a clear and wait for interrupt instruction. A normal interrupt request has lower priority than the fast interrupt request and is prevented from interrupting the fast interrupt request routine by automatic setting of the I (interrupt request mask) bit. This mask bit could then be reset during the interrupt routine if priority was not desired. The fast interrupt request allows operations on memory, TST, INC, DEC, etc. instructions without the overhead of saving the entire machine state on the stack.

Set E (entire state saved)
SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← CCR
Set I (mask further IRQ interrupts)
PC' ← (FFF8):(FFF9)
Condition Codes:Not affected.
Description:If the I (interrupt request mask) bit is clear, a low level on the IRQ input causes this interrupt sequence to occur at the end of the current instruction. Control is returned to the interrupted program using a RTI (return from interrupt) instruction. A FIRQ (fast interrupt request) may interrupt a normal IRQ (interrupt request) routine and be recognized anytime after the interrupt vector is taken.

Set E (entire state save)
SP' ← SP-1, (SP) ← CCR
Set I, F (mask interrupts)
PC' ← (FFFC):(FFFD)
Condition Codes:Not affected.
Description:A negative edge on the NMI (non-maskable interrupt) input causes all of the processor's registers (except the hardware stack pointer) to be pushed onto the hardware stack, starting at the end of the current instruction. Program control is transferred through the NMI vector. Successive negative edges on the NMI input will cause successive NMI operations. Non-maskable interrupt operation can be internally blocked by a RESET operation and any non-maskable interrupt that occurs will be latched. If this happens, the non-maskable interrupt operation will occur after the first load into the stack pointer (LDS; TFR r,s; EXG r,s; etc.) after RESET.
