CHAPTER 1 Create a machine code function that returns the score to BASIC Machine code programs are a series of bytes in the Spectrums memory.

55 205 Dec 2004 04 Corrected discrepancies in the bit patterns for IM. I read that the Sargon chess engine was very well suited for the 6502 due. Z80 Explorer is a tool I wished I had a few years ago when I first started looking at the photos of Z80 chip die and was learning to reverse-engineer its features.

Suggestions including a correction to the Z80 Status Indicator Flags table bit 4 and a correction to the EXX instruction at bit 0. Very interesting as it pointed out that C which was designed to be an abstraction of a CPU for porting Unix was not a very easy language to create efficient machine code from for the Z80. You can quickly understand it with the comments.

Nonetheless there are a few peculiarities of this code. In assembly language this would be written as DEC B. In cc out cc.

I found Why do C to Z80 compilers produce poor code. UM008004-1204 Z80 CPU Instruction Description. Simple sample code on a variety of Z80 machines.

By default its ROM - we need to turn of that and set it as RAM with bit 5. In Solution Explorer right-click the Codez80asm file and invoke the Run Z80 program command. Write a BASIC program to run the machine code and print the score we have obtained from it.

The MIPS architecture provides a specific example for a machine code. 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F. Otherwise the code would finish its operation with a JP instruction for example with jp 12ac to enter into the.

The first code that tniASM looks at is cpu Z80 which tells it that it is compiling code for the Z80 processor. Still this book was obviously hurried and its never a good idea to rush machine code mcode for short. 0 246 12133 5 The Dragon 32 and How to Make the Most of It Ian Sinclair 0 246 121149 Z80 Machine Code for Humans Alan Tootill and David Barrow 0 246 12031 2 6502 Machine Code for Humans Alan Toothill and David Barrow 0 246 12076 2.

Z80 instructions are powerful but simple in structure designed to take up as little memory as possible. For example on the Zilog Z80 processor the machine code 00000101 which causes the CPU to decrement the B processor register would be represented in assembly language as DEC B. This displacement can be in the range of 129 to -126 and is measured from the address of the instruction Op Code.

Address AOp Code A1 A2 C3 32 3E Low Order Address High Order Address. Z80 Explorer is a Zilog Z80 netlist-level simulator capable of running Z80 machine code and also an educational tool with features that help reverse engineer and understand this chip better. You can use the CtrlM CtrlR double shortcut keys to execute the Run Z80 program.

For example on the Zilog Z80 processor the machine code 00000101 causes the CPU to decrement the B processor register. The next line is org 0x0000 which tells it where our program will sit in the memory remember our ROM goes from 0x0000 to 0x00FF. This code is simple.

Extend to the code with a few lines. We do this with port 252 We need to configure the low area. Apparently the same for 6502 where many dive directly in machine code.

65 126 Feb 2005 05 Corrected the hex code for the RLCA instruction. Whatever we decide to put in n is known as the operand. The injectopt subroutine pragma instructs the IDE that the code can be executed by calling it as a subroutine that returns with a RET Z80 instruction.

Jumpstart Z80 Machine Code. These lines are not code that the Z80 will see but configuration data for the assembler. We also need to set the.

In bc out cb. The MIPS architecture provides a specific example for a machine code whose instructions are always 32 bits long. Note that we dont have separate machine code numbers for LD A and the comma.

The entire instruction LD A n is a single machine code number 62 known as an opcode. The last two banks of a 256k machine the minimum spec for the SAM. This is why programmers of Z80 desktop computers like my TRS-80 use special programs called ASSEMBLERs to create Z80 mcode.

One tiny mistake can and most likely will crash your computer and possibly destroy data. In this chapter we will Use the Spin assembler to write a few bytes into the memory generating a score for our game.
