The method by which the processor transfers control to the entry address of a previously-loaded program.
Industry:Semiconductors
A constant given as an operand in an instruction that is using immediate addressing.
Industry:Semiconductors
A register in the asynchronous serial port that provides status information about signals IO0–IO3 and about transfers in progress.
Industry:Semiconductors
Bit-aligned block transfer. Transfer of a block of pixels from one location in a bitmap to another.
Industry:Semiconductors
The mixing together of two digital signals into one; the algebraic sum of two digital signals.
Industry:Semiconductors
A contiguous block in data memory. Fixed-point devices contain a block of 128 words in data memory. Data memory contains 512 data pages. Data page 0 is the first page of data memory (addresses 0000h–007Fh); data page 511 is the last page (addresses FF80h–FFFFh). In floating-point devices, data pages are 64K words long. The ’C3x has a total of 256 pages; the ’C4x has a total of 64K (65,536) pages. See also direct addressing.
Industry:Semiconductors
A register in the asynchronous serial port that writes the data to transmit and reads the data received. See also asynchronous serial port receive shift register.
Industry:Semiconductors
Bits 0–3 of the IOSR. When pins IO0–IO3 are configured as inputs, these bits reflect the current logic levels on the pins. For example, the IO0 bit reflects the level on the IO0 pin. See also CIO0–CIO3 bits; DIO0–DIO3 bits.
Industry:Semiconductors
The mode in which the processor enters a dormant state and dissipates considerably less power than during normal operation.
This mode is initiated by the execution of an IDLE instruction. During a power-down mode, all internal contents are maintained so that operation continues unaltered when the power-down mode is terminated. The contents of all on-chip RAM also remains unchanged.
Industry:Semiconductors
A continuous test used by the program until a desired condition is met.
