OPERATION
These instructions allow multiple loading and storing of Lo registers. The THUMB assembler syntax is shown in the
following table.
Table 4-16. The Multiple Load/Store Instructions
L THUMB assembler ARM equivalent Action
0 STMIA Rb!, { Rlist } STMIA Rb!, { Rlist } Store the registers specified by Rlist, starting
at the base address in Rb. Write back the
new base address.
1 LDMIA Rb!, { Rlist } LDMIA Rb!, { Rlist } Load the registers specified by Rlist, starting
at the base address in Rb. Write back the
new base address.
INSTRUCTION CYCLE TIMES
All instructions in this format have an equivalent ARM instruction as shown in Table 4-16. The instruction cycle times
for the THUMB instruction are identical to that of the equivalent ARM instruction.
EXAMPLES
STMIA R0!, {R3-R7} ; Store the contents of registers R3-R7
; starting at the address specified in
; R0, incrementing the addresses for each word.
; Write back the updated value of R0.
