CHAPTER 3 CPU ARCHITECTURE
3.2 Processor Registers
The 78K0R/Lx3 microcontrollers products incorporate the following processor registers.
3.2.1 Control registers
The control registers control the program sequence, statuses and stack memory. The control registers consist of a
program counter (PC), a program status word (PSW) and a stack pointer (SP).
(1) Program counter (PC)
The program counter is a 20-bit register that holds the address information of the next program to be executed.
In normal operation, PC is automatically incremented according to the number of bytes of the instruction to be fetched.
When a branch instruction is executed, immediate data and register contents are set.
Reset signal generation sets the reset vector table values at addresses 0000H and 0001H to the program counter.

(2) Program status word (PSW)
The program status word is an 8-bit register consisting of various flags set/reset by instruction execution.
Program status word contents are stored in the stack area upon interrupt request generation or PUSH PSW
instruction execution and are restored upon execution of the RETB, RETI and POP PSW instructions.
Reset signal generation sets PSW to 06H.

(a) Interrupt enable flag (IE)
This flag controls the interrupt request acknowledge operations of the CPU.
When 0, the IE flag is set to the interrupt disabled (DI) state, and all maskable interrupt requests are disabled.
When 1, the IE flag is set to the interrupt enabled (EI) state and interrupt request acknowledgment is controlled
with an in-service priority flag (ISP1, ISP0), an interrupt mask flag for various interrupt sources, and a priority
specification flag.
The IE flag is reset (0) upon DI instruction execution or interrupt acknowledgment and is set (1) upon EI
instruction execution.
(b) Zero flag (Z)
When the operation result is zero, this flag is set (1). It is reset (0) in all other cases.
(c) Register bank select flags (RBS0, RBS1)
These are 2-bit flags to select one of the four register banks.
In these flags, the 2-bit information that indicates the register bank selected by SEL RBn instruction execution is
stored.
