ARM INSTRUCTION SET S3C2440A RISC MICROPROCESSOR
3-34
HALFWORD AND SIGNED DATA TRANSFER (LDRH/STRH/LDRSB/LDRSH)
The instruction is only executed if the condition is true. The various conditions are defined in Table 3-2. The
instruction encoding is shown in Figure 3-16.
These instructions are used to load or store half-words of data and also load sign-extended bytes or half-words of
data. The memory address used in the transfer is calculated by adding an offset to or subtracting an offset from a
base register. The result of this calculation may be written back into the base register if auto-indexing is required.
