Q.1 (a) While processing an interrupt for HS12 microcontroller, what will be the time taken to branch to the ISR, if the microcontroller is operating at 8 MHz? [3]
Q.1 (b) Machine A is a non-pipelined machine, whereas machine B is a 4-stage pipeline machine. If the cycle time for both the machines is 12 nsec, what will be the MIPS for both machines? [3]
Q.1 (c) Assume the contents of the HC12 registers as below:
X = $0FFF, Y = $320E D = $0214 SP = $1FFF
Write instructions for each of the following
i. Copy the contents of register B into the memory location $3210 using accumulator offset indexed addressing mode ii. Adds the contents of memory location $2005 with the A register using indexed addressing with auto increment/decrement addressing mode. iii. Move a word from location $2000 to location $1000 iv. Convert the number in location $2000 into its two’s complement. [8]
Q.2 The condition of the following pins of MC9S12C32 after reset is BKGD=1; MODB=0;
MODA=0.
(a) What will be the mode in which MC9S12C32 is functioning?
(b) If the mode is to be changed to Normal Expanded Wide with a memory map as shown below:
Registers ; $4000 to the allowed space (2K)
RAM ; Just after the new allocated space for Registers
EEPROM ; unchanged
(i) List what registers have to be
