Homework Assignment 3
Due Feb. 7, 2001

1. Dissassemble the following machine code into 68HC12 assembly instructions. Use Table A-2 of the CPU Reference Guide.
   96 80 7A FA 84 40 C3 7A FA FA 97 41

2. Repeat Problem 1 for the following machine code:
   CF 0C 00 D6 6F C4 03 C1 03 26 02

3. Which of the conditional branch instructions in the following list will cause a branch to be taken if the condition flags N = C = 1 and Z = V = 0?
   1. BCC label
   2. BNE label
   3. BGE label
   4. BGT label
   5. BHI label
   6. BMI label

4. The contents of a 68HC12's registers are:

    A   B     X     Y    SP    PC  CCR
   12  34  ABCD  5678  0A20  0800   F5
   

   Consider the following instruction sequence:

       org   $0800
       PSHX
       PSHY
       PULA
       PULB
   

   What will be in the registers after the four instructions have been executed?

5. Write a program to swap the last element of an array with the first element, the next-to-last element with the second, etc. Assume the array has 0x20 8-bit numbers, and that the array starts at address 0x0900.

6. Write a program to determine the number of non-negative numbers in a table. The starting address of the table is 0xa000 and the ending address is 0xdFFF. Each element in the table should be considered to be an eight-bit signed number. Save the answer at address 0x0900. (Do you need an eight-bit or 16-bit variable to store the answer?)
