CPU
The RXv2 instruction set architecture (RXv2) has upward compatibility with the RXv1 instruction set architecture
(RXv1).
Adoption of variable-length instruction format
As with RXv1, the RXv2 CPU has short formats for frequently used instructions, facilitating the development of
efficient programs that take up less memory.
Powerful instruction set
The RXv2 supports 109 selected instructions. Moreover, DSP instructions and floating-point operation instructions
are added, thus realizing high-speed arithmetic processing.
Versatile addressing modes
The RXv2 CPU has 11 versatile addressing modes, with register-register operations, register-memory operations,
and bitwise operations included. Data transfer between memory locations is also possible.
