  1. Microcontroller Fundamentals & Programming Stack and its Applications

  2. Stack Memory Stack or stack memory • occupied a small section of RAM • reserved for saving or retrieving of temporary data by CPU registers. • uses LIFO (last in, first out) stack memory or Push down, Pop up stack operation

  3. Stack Memory • Application of stack memory e.g. Executing of subroutine instructions that pushes CPU registers into the stack. • Stack Pointer (SP) • a 16-bit CPU register • holds the address of the next free location of the stack memory.

  4. Stack Memory Instructions PUSH Executing this instruction: • save CPU register contents to stack. • decrement SP register values by one or two depend on register; an 8-bit or a 16-bit type being saved into the stack.

  5. Stack Memory Instructions PULL Executing this instruction will: • retrieve data from stack and place them onto the register. • increment the stack pointer (SP) register values by one or two depend on register is an 8-bit or a 16-bit type.

  6. Example of PUSH Instructions LDS #$01FF ; SP = $01FF PSHA ; SP = SP - 1 = $01FE ; ($01FF) = contents of ACCA PSHB ; SP = SP - 1 = $01FD ; ($01FE) = contents of ACCB PSHX ; SP = SP – 2 = $01FB ; ($01FD&C) = contents of IX PSHY ; SP = SP – 2 = $01F9 ; ($01FB&A) = contents of IY WAI

  7. Example of PULL Instructions LDS #$01F0 ; SP = $01F0 PULA ;ACCA = contents of $01F0 ; SP = SP + 1 = $01F1 PULB ;ACCB = contents of $01F1 ; SP = SP + 1 = $01F2 PULX ;IX = contents of $01F2 & $01F3 ; SP = SP + 2 = $01F4 PULY ; IY = contents of $01F4 & $01F5 ; SP = SP + 2 = $01F6 WAI

  8. PUSH operation LDS #$01FF LDAA #$22 LDAB #$33 LDX #$8899 PSHA PSHB PSHX - - - - - PULX PULB PULA - - - - - WAI 01FF SP Address Data $0100 - - - - - - - - PUSH$01FA SP-2 IX $8899 $01FB $01FC 88 SP-1 ACCB $33 $01FD 99 SP-1 ACCA $22 $01FE 33 SP $01FF 22

  9. PULL operation LDS #$01FF LDAA #$22 LDAB #$33 LDX #$8899 PSHA PSHB PSHX - - - - - PULX PULB PULA - - - - - WAI • Address Data • $0100 • - - - • - - - - • $01FA • $01FB SP • $01FC 88 $8899 IXSP+2 • $01FD 99 • $01FE 33 $33 ACCBSP+1 • $01FF 22 $22 ACCA SP+1 PULL

  10. Stack Application – Subroutine • A small sequence of instructions written to perform a specified task. • Called from different location of program – BSR, JSR. • Return to the right location upon completion of subroutine – RTS 15

  11. Subroutine Operation • On calling subroutine, BSR/JSR, the next PC value is saved onto stack. • Upon completing the subroutine, RTS, retrieved return address stored in stack and loaded into PC • Subroutine example: ORG $0100 $0100 LDS #$DFFF $0103 LDAA #$55 $0105 BSR TOGGLE $0107 STAA PORTB TOGGLE: …… ...… …… RTS

  19. Summary • Dedicated First-In-Last-Out memory for storing and retrieving of data. • Use of stack pointer to keep track of stack. • Push and Pull instructions. • PSHA/PSHB – 1 memory address • PSHX/PSHY – 2 memory address • Operation of Subroutine.
