Given the following code segment, with all numbers being in hexadecimal values. All arithmetic and branch instructions are shown. Each arithmetic operation takes 4
clock cycles. All other types of operations take 3 cycles each. A "branch is taken" means program branches to the target address:
Instruction
Code
X, X
Y, X
BRZ
PROC CE_AQU
SUB
MOV Y,5//move 5 to Y
SUB
328//Branch if 0
Instruction
Address
300
302
304
306
308
.
MOV X, Y
32A
.
.
INC X //increment
ENDP
32E
330
When the branch instruction is executed and the "branch is taken", the new PC counter value will be
30A O
310 O
328
32A
