Question

EA.1 Assuming that we have the following instruction sequence to be executed by the HCS12, what will be the contents of the topmost 4 bytes of the stack after the execution of these lds #$1500 ldaa #$56 staa 1.-SP ldab #22 staa 1-SP sty 2,-SP EA.2 Write instructions to perform the following operation: 1) Push the value $2301 (word value) onto the stack 2] Push the value $34 (byte value) onto the stack 3 Pop the top word of the stack and save it at memory location $1000-$1001 4) Push the 16-bit value stored at $1000-$1001 into the stack E4.3 Revise the subroutine in Example 4.2 so that it can convert a 16-bit signed integer toa BCD string. E4.4 Write a subroutine to find the greatest common divisor of two 16-bit unsigned integers These two 16-bit numbers are passed in the stack. The subroutine returns the gcd in double accumulator D EA.5 Write a subroutine to convert all the lowercase letters in a string to uppercase. The pointer to the string is passed to this subroutine in X E4.6 The label array,x is the starting address of an array of 100 8-bit elements. Trace the fol lowing code sequence and describe what the subroutine sub x does: array x #100 ldaa sub dab O.x bne loop

Explanation / Answer

E4.1)ldx #$0800

ldaa #5

ldab #0

loop stab 0,x

incb

inx

dbne a,loop

E4.2) 1)pushw $2301

2)push $2301

3)000H
MOV 00H, $1000H
MOV 01H, $1001H
POP 1FH
POP 0EH
END

4)0000h
MOV 08h, $1000h
MOV 09h, $1001h
PUSH 00h
PUSH 01h
END
