3.10 DIRECT ADDRESS (DA) MODE

In Direct Address (DA) mode, the instruction provides an operand's 16-bit memory address. Jump (JP) and Call
(CALL) instructions use this addressing mode to specify the 16-bit destination address loaded into the PC
whenever a JP or CALL instruction is executed.
The LDC and LDE instructions can use Direct Address mode to specify the source or destination address for Load
operations to program memory (LDC) or external data memory (LDE), if implemented.
