Instructions

Instruction mnemonics are shown in uppercase. When you are

programming, instructions are not case-sensitive. You may use

either uppercase or lowercase.

Numbers

Hexadecimal numbers are represented by a string of

hexadecimal digits followed by the character H. A zero prefix is

added to numbers that begin with A through F. (For example, FF

is shown as 0FFH.) Decimal and binary numbers are

represented by their customary notations. (That is, 255 is a

decimal number and 1111 1111 is a binary number. In some

cases, the letter B is added for clarity.)

measure:

A amps,

pF

picofarads

W watts
V volts
µA microamps,

µW microwatts

Signal Names

Signal names are shown in uppercase. When several signals

share a common name, an individual signal is represented by

the signal name followed by a number, while the group is

represented by the signal name followed by a variable (n). For

example, the lower chip-select signals are named CS0#, CS1#,

CS2#, and so on; they are collectively called CSn#. A pound

symbol (#) appended to a signal name identifies an active-low

signal. Port pins are represented by the port abbreviation, a

period, and the pin number (e.g., P1.0).
