CPU
The MSP430 CPU has a 16-bit RISC architecture
that is highly transparent to the application. All
operations, other than program-flow instructions, are
performed as register operations in conjunction with
seven addressing modes for source operand and four
addressing modes for destination operand.
The CPU is integrated with 16 registers that provide
reduced instruction execution time. The register-to-
register operation execution time is one cycle of the
CPU clock.
Four of the registers, R0 to R3, are dedicated as
program counter, stack pointer, status register, and
constant generator, respectively. The remaining
registers are general-purpose registers.
Peripherals are connected to the CPU using data,
address, and control buses, and can be handled with
all instructions.
Instruction Set
The instruction set consists of 51 instructions with
three formats and seven address modes. Each
instruction can operate on word and byte data.
Table 3 shows examples of the three types of
instruction formats; Table 4 shows the address
modes.
