2.5.1
The H8SX CPU has eight 32-bit general registers. These general registers are all functionally alike
and can be used as both address registers and data registers. When a general register is used as a
data register, it can be accessed as a 32-bit, 16-bit, or 8-bit register. Figure 2.10 illustrates the
usage of the general registers.
When the general registers are used as 32-bit registers or address registers, they are designated by
the letters ER (ER0 to ER7).
When the general registers are used as 16-bit registers, the ER registers are divided into 16-bit
general registers designated by the letters E (E0 to E7) and R (R0 to R7). These registers are
functionally equivalent, providing a maximum sixteen 16-bit registers. The E registers (E0 to E7)
are also referred to as extended registers.
When the general registers are used as 8-bit registers, the R registers are divided into 8-bit general
registers designated by the letters RH (R0H to R7H) and RL (R0L to R7L). These registers are
functionally equivalent, providing a maximum sixteen 8-bit registers.
The general registers ER (ER0 to ER7), R (R0 to R7), and RL (R0L to R7L) are also used as index
registers. The size in the operand field determines which register is selected.
The usage of each register can be selected independently.
General register ER7 has the function of stack pointer (SP) in addition to its general-register
function, and is used implicitly in exception handling and subroutine branches. Figure 2.11 shows
the stack.
