Preface

The H8/300 CPU forms the common core of all chips in the H8/300 Series. Featuring a

Hitachi-original, high-speed, RISC-like architecture, it has eight 16-bit (or sixteen 8-bit)

general registers and a concise, optimized instruction set.

This manual gives detailed descriptions of the H8/300 instructions. The descriptions apply to

all chips in the H8/300 Series. Assembly-language programmers should also read the separate

H8/300 Series Cross Assembler User's Manual.

For hardware details, refer to the hardware manual of the specific chip.
