RET
Return from Subroutine
Operation
PC ← (SP)
Description
The RET instruction returns program control back to the point in the user’s application
code that had reached the current subroutine via a
CALL instruction. The return address
pops from the stack and is written to the Program Counter. The MADL control bit must be
set to 1 to enable mixed-ADL mode code and interrupts. If the MADL is reset to 0, the suf-
fixed instructions do not operate correctly. More detailed operation is provided in
Table 83.
