Specification.
• 1. The L field provides
an
eight-bit count specifying
the
number
of
scratch-pad memory locations to be loaded.
An
initial count
of
zero
specifies one word to be loaded.
2.
The first address specifies scratch-pad memory words 0
through
127
by
the
seven
rightmost
bits
of
the
address.
The
bits to
the
left
of
the
seven-bit address
must
be zero.
3. The second address
must
be on a word boundary.
(This
is a
program
restriction.)
4. The processor uses utility
registers
in scratch-pad memory to execute
this
instruction.
If
these
registers
are
included
in
the
range
of
this
instruction
results
are
unpredictable.
