2.3.1 Standalone Instructions and Restrictions

Following are the restrictions:

  • Discontinuity instructions cannot be included in delay slots. No hardware check. But, assembler shall flag this error.
  • IDLE instruction cannot be executed in delay slots.
  • IDLE instruction cannot be placed in packets covered by XC
  • IDLE instruction packet cannot be parallelized.
  • PRESERVE instructions can only be executed in parallel to Protected call or Protected branch or Protected return. No hardware check. But, assembler shall flag this error.
  • EMUSTOP0 cannot be included in delay slots.
  • XC packets consisting of more than one instruction packet are not allowed in delay slots.
  • ECCSELFTEST cannot be parallelized and executed as standalone only.
  • MOV Ax,RPC and LD.32 RPC, @MEM is not allowed in delay slot of CALL instruction. RPC load with Return address in delay slot 3 is not protected.
  • XC/XCP instructions cannot be executed in parallel to ISRn.PROT/ENTRYn.PROT/EXITn.PROT
