The Program and Data Addressing Modes
The AVR Enhanced RISC microcontroller supports powerful and efficient addressing modes for access to the Program
memory (Flash) and Data memory (SRAM, Register file, I/O Memory, and Extended I/O Memory). This section describes
the various addressing modes supported by the AVR architecture. In the following figures, OP means the operation code
part of the instruction word. To simplify, not all figures show the exact location of the addressing bits. To generalize, the
abstract terms RAMEND and FLASHEND have been used to represent the highest location in data and program space,
respectively.
Note: Not all addressing modes are present in all devices. Refer to the device spesific instruction summary.
Register Direct, Single Register Rd
Figure 1. Direct Single Register Addressing
The operand is contained in register d (Rd).
Register Direct, Two Registers Rd and Rr
Figure 2. Direct Register Addressing, Two Registers
Operands are contained in register r (Rr) and d (Rd). The result is stored in register d (Rd).

I/O Direct
Figure 3. I/O Direct Addressing
Operand address is contained in 6 bits of the instruction word. n is the destination or source register address.
Note: Some complex AVR Microcontrollers have more peripheral units than can be supported within the 64 locations reserved in the
opcode for I/O direct addressing. The extended I/O memory from address 64 to 255 can only be reached by data addressing,
not I/O addressing.
Data Direct
Figure 4. Direct Data Addressing
A 16-bit Data Address is contained in the 16 LSBs of a two-word instruction. Rd/Rr specify the destination or source
register.

Data Indirect with Displacement
Figure 5. Data Indirect with Displacement
Operand address is the result of the Y- or Z-register contents added to the address contained in 6 bits of the instruction
word. Rd/Rr specify the destination or source register.
Data Indirect
Figure 6. Data Indirect Addressing
Operand address is the contents of the X-, Y-, or the Z-register. In AVR devices without SRAM, Data Indirect Addressing is
called Register Indirect Addressing. Register Indirect Addressing is a subset of Data Indirect Addressing since the data
space form 0 to 31 is the Register File.

Program Memory Constant Addressing using the LPM, ELPM, and SPM Instructions
Figure 9. Program Memory Constant Addressing
Constant byte address is specified by the Z-register contents. The 15 MSBs select word address. For LPM, the LSB selects
low byte if cleared (LSB = 0) or high byte if set (LSB = 1). For SPM, the LSB should be cleared. If ELPM is used, the
RAMPZ Register is used to extend the Z-register.
Program Memory with Post-increment using the LPM Z+ and ELPM Z+ Instruction
Figure 10. Program Memory Addressing with Post-increment
Constant byte address is specified by the Z-register contents. The 15 MSBs select word address. The LSB selects low byte
if cleared (LSB = 0) or high byte if set (LSB = 1). If ELPM Z+ is used, the RAMPZ Register is used to extend the Z-register.

Description:
The BREAK instruction is used by the On-chip Debug system, and is normally not used in the application software. When
the BREAK instruction is executed, the AVR CPU is set in the Stopped Mode. This gives the On-chip Debugger access to
internal resources.
If any Lock bits are set, or either the JTAGEN or OCDEN Fuses are unprogrammed, the CPU will treat the BREAK instruction
as a NOP and will not enter the Stopped mode.
This instruction is not available in all devices. Refer to the device specific instruction set summary.

DES – Data Encryption Standard
Description:
The module is an instruction set extension to the AVR CPU, performing DES iterations. The 64-bit data block (plaintext or
ciphertext) is placed in the CPU register file, registers R0-R7, where LSB of data is placed in LSB of R0 and MSB of data is
placed in MSB of R7. The full 64-bit key (including parity bits) is placed in registers R8-R15, organized in the register file
with LSB of key in LSB of R8 and MSB of key in MSB of R15. Executing one DES instruction performs one round in the
DES algorithm. Sixteen rounds must be executed in increasing order to form the correct DES ciphertext or plaintext. Intermediate
results are stored in the register file (R0-R15) after each DES instruction. The instruction’s operand (K) determines
which round is executed, and the half carry flag (H) determines whether encryption or decryption is performed.
The DES algorithm is described in “Specifications for the Data Encryption Standard” (Federal Information Processing Standards
Publication 46). Intermediate results in this implementation differ from the standard because the initial permutation
and the inverse initial permutation are performed each iteration. This does not affect the result in the final ciphertext or
plaintext, but reduces execution time.
Operation:
(i) If H = 0 then Encrypt round (R7-R0, R15-R8, K)
If H = 1 then Decrypt round (R7-R0, R15-R8, K)
Syntax: Operands: Program Counter:

ELPM – Extended Load Program Memory
Description:
Loads one byte pointed to by the Z-register and the RAMPZ Register in the I/O space, and places this byte in the destination
register Rd. This instruction features a 100% space effective constant initialization or constant data fetch. The Program
memory is organized in 16-bit words while the Z-pointer is a byte address. Thus, the least significant bit of the Z-pointer
selects either low byte (ZLSB = 0) or high byte (ZLSB = 1). This instruction can address the entire Program memory space.
The Z-pointer Register can either be left unchanged by the operation, or it can be incremented. The incrementation applies
to the entire 24-bit concatenation of the RAMPZ and Z-pointer Registers.
Devices with Self-Programming capability can use the ELPM instruction to read the Fuse and Lock bit value. Refer to the
device documentation for a detailed description.
This instruction is not available in all devices. Refer to the device specific instruction set summary.
The result of these combinations is undefined:

Let (N.Q) denote a fractional number with N binary digits left of the radix point, and Q binary digits right of the radix point. A multiplication between two numbers in the formats (N1.Q1) and (N2.Q2) results in the format ((N1+N2).(Q1+Q2)). For signal processing applications, the format (1.7) is widely used for the inputs, resulting in a (2.14) format for the product. A left shift is required for the high byte of the product to be in the same format as the inputs. The FMUL instruction incorporates the shift operation in the same number of cycles as MUL. The (1.7) format is most commonly used with signed numbers, while FMUL performs an unsigned multiplication. This instruction is therefore most useful for calculating one of the partial products when performing a signed multiplication with 16-bit inputs in the (1.15) format, yielding a result in the (1.31) format. Note: the result of the FMUL operation may suffer from a 2’s complement overflow if interpreted as a number in the (1.15) format. The MSB of the multiplication before shifting must be taken into account, and is found in the carry bit. See the following example. The multiplicand Rd and the multiplier Rr are two registers containing unsigned fractional numbers where the implicit radix point lies between bit 6 and bit 7. The 16-bit unsigned fractional product with the implicit radix point between bit 14 and bit 15 is placed in R1 (high byte) and R0 (low byte). This instruction is not available in all devices.

LD – Load Indirect from Data Space to Register using Index X
Description:
Loads one byte indirect from the data space to a register. For parts with SRAM, the data space consists of the Register
File, I/O memory and internal SRAM (and external SRAM if applicable). For parts without SRAM, the data space consists of
the Register File only. In some parts the Flash Memory has been mapped to the data space and can be read using this
command. The EEPROM has a separate address space.
The data location is pointed to by the X (16 bits) Pointer Register in the Register File. Memory access is limited to the current
data segment of 64K bytes. To access another data segment in devices with more than 64K bytes data space, the
RAMPX in register in the I/O area has to be changed.
The X-pointer Register can either be left unchanged by the operation, or it can be post-incremented or pre-decremented.
These features are especially suited for accessing arrays, tables, and Stack Pointer usage of the X-pointer Register. Note
that only the low byte of the X-pointer is updated in devices with no more than 256 bytes data space. For such devices, the
high byte of the pointer is not used by this instruction and can be used for other purposes. The RAMPX Register in the I/O
area is updated in parts with more than 64K bytes data space or more than 64K bytes Program memory, and the increment/
decrement is added to the entire 24-bit address on such devices.
Not all variants of this instruction is available in all devices. Refer to the device specific instruction set summary.
In the Reduced Core tinyAVR the LD instruction can be used to achieve the same operation as LPM since the program
memory is mapped to the data memory space.
The result of these combinations is undefined:

Notes: 1. IF the LD instruction is accessing internal SRAM, one extra cycle is inserted.

  1. LD instruction can load data from program memory since the flash is memory mapped. Loading data from the data memory
    takes 1 clock cycle, and loading from the program memory takes 2 clock cycles. But if an interrupt occur (before the last
    clock cycle) no additional clock cycles is necessary when loading from the program memory. Hence, the instruction takes
    only 1 clock cycle to execute.
    LD instruction with pre-decrement can load data from program memory since the flash is memory mapped. Loading data
    from the data memory takes 2 clock cycles, and loading from the program memory takes 3 clock cycles. But if an interrupt
    occur (before the last clock cycle) no additional clock cycles is necessary when loading from the program memory. Hence,
    the instruction takes only 1 clock cycle to execute.

    Loads one byte indirect with or without displacement from the data space to a register. For parts with SRAM, the data

    The data location is pointed to by the Y (16 bits) Pointer Register in the Register File. Memory access is limited to the current
    data segment of 64K bytes. To access another data segment in devices with more than 64K bytes data space, the
    RAMPY in register in the I/O area has to be changed.
    The Y-pointer Register can either be left unchanged by the operation, or it can be post-incremented or pre-decremented.
    These features are especially suited for accessing arrays, tables, and Stack Pointer usage of the Y-pointer Register. Note
    that only the low byte of the Y-pointer is updated in devices with no more than 256 bytes data space. For such devices, the
    high byte of the pointer is not used by this instruction and can be used for other purposes. The RAMPY Register in the I/O
    area is updated in parts with more than 64K bytes data space or more than 64K bytes Program memory, and the increment/
    decrement/displacement is added to the entire 24-bit address on such devices.
    Not all variants of this instruction is available in all devices. Refer to the device specific instruction set summary.

    LD (LDD) – Load Indirect From Data Space to Register using Index Z
    Description:
    Loads one byte indirect with or without displacement from the data space to a register. For parts with SRAM, the data
    space consists of the Register File, I/O memory and internal SRAM (and external SRAM if applicable). For parts without
    SRAM, the data space consists of the Register File only. In some parts the Flash Memory has been mapped to the data
    space and can be read using this command. The EEPROM has a separate address space.
    The data location is pointed to by the Z (16 bits) Pointer Register in the Register File. Memory access is limited to the current
    data segment of 64K bytes. To access another data segment in devices with more than 64K bytes data space, the
    RAMPZ in register in the I/O area has to be changed.
    The Z-pointer Register can either be left unchanged by the operation, or it can be post-incremented or pre-decremented.
    These features are especially suited for Stack Pointer usage of the Z-pointer Register, however because the Z-pointer
    Register can be used for indirect subroutine calls, indirect jumps and table lookup, it is often more convenient to use the X
    or Y-pointer as a dedicated Stack Pointer. Note that only the low byte of the Z-pointer is updated in devices with no more
    than 256 bytes data space. For such devices, the high byte of the pointer is not used by this instruction and can be used for
    other purposes. The RAMPZ Register in the I/O area is updated in parts with more than 64K bytes data space or more than
    64K bytes Program memory, and the increment/decrement/displacement is added to the entire 24-bit address on such
    devices.
    Not all variants of this instruction is available in all devices. Refer to the device specific instruction set summary.
    In the Reduced Core tinyAVR the LD instruction can be used to achieve the same operation as LPM since the program
    memory is mapped to the data memory space.
    For using the Z-pointer for table lookup in Program memory see the LPM and ELPM instructions.
    The result of these combinations is undefined:

    LPM – Load Program Memory
    Description:
    Loads one byte pointed to by the Z-register into the destination register Rd. This instruction features a 100% space effective
    constant initialization or constant data fetch. The Program memory is organized in 16-bit words while the Z-pointer is a
    byte address. Thus, the least significant bit of the Z-pointer selects either low byte (ZLSB = 0) or high byte (ZLSB = 1). This
    instruction can address the first 64K bytes (32K words) of Program memory. The Z-pointer Register can either be left
    unchanged by the operation, or it can be incremented. The incrementation does not apply to the RAMPZ Register.
    Devices with Self-Programming capability can use the LPM instruction to read the Fuse and Lock bit values. Refer to the
    device documentation for a detailed description.
    The LPM instruction is not available in all devices. Refer to the device specific instruction set summary.
