CPU core
An 8-bit accumulator based CPU core can directly address up to 64 x 16K byte addressing
space. Most of the instructions are executed in two cycles. Instruction is generally one byte
and will have an extra byte for some addressing modes.
CPU Registers:
Program Counter (PC)
The 14-bit Program Counter stores address for instruction fetch during program
execution. It makes up a page size of 16K bytes. Together with the Program Page
Register (iPAGE), it becomes a 20-bit address that can access up to 1,048,576 bytes.
When the CPU resets, the content of the iPAGE:PC will be 00:0000. If interrupt
occurs, the type of interrupt will then determine its content. PC will automatically be
incremented to the next instruction after an instruction fetch.

Page Register (PAGE)
An 8-bit Page Register is used to change the program flow. The most significant two
bits are always set to zero.
Data Bank Register (BANK)
An 8-bit Bank Register is used to access data memory. The most significant two bits
are always set to zero.
Program Page Register (iPAGE)
An 8-bit Program Page Register is combined with PC for instruction fetch. The most
significant two bits are always set to zero.
Accumulator (A)
An 8-bit Accumulator is used for arithmetic, logical and data movement operation.
Temporary Register (B)
An 8-bit temporarily storage is used for accumulator.
Index Registers (X, Y)
These two 8-bit registers can be used for general registers and index registers of the
indirect addressing mode. They can also be used as pointer for table read and
memory write instructions.
