4.6.4 Address Instructions
MSP430X address instructions are instructions that support 20-bit operands but have restricted
addressing modes. The addressing modes are restricted to the register mode and the immediate mode,
except for the MOVA instruction. Restricting the addressing modes removes the need for the additional
extension-word op-code improving code density and execution time. The MSP430X address instructions
are listed and described in the following pages.
