This page documents all Motorola 68000‏ instructions, as well as their execution times. When instruction timings are shown, they are usually in the format of x(r/w), where x is the total number of processor cycles required for the instruction, and r/w is the total read and write cycles required for the instruction.

Instruction timings include instruction fetches, operand reads, as well as operand writes.

Address Calculation Times

It is important to remember that most instructions alter some form of memory, and thus, must calculate the address that will be accessed, which usually incurs extra processor cycles. The two columns "Byte/Word" and "Long" contain a number followed by two numbers in parenthesis. The number outside the parenthesis indicates the total number of processor cycles required, while the two numbers inside the parenthesis indicate the number of read and write cycles are required.

Timings include fetching of extension words, address computation, as well as fetching of memory operands.

Standard Instruction Execution Times

The number of processor clocks shown in this table indicate the time required to perform the operations, store the results, and to read the next instruction. When indicated by a +, the effective address calculation time must be added to the time required for the instruction itself.

Headings in the table have the following meanings:

  • An = Address register operand
  • Dn = Data register operand
  • ea = Operand specified by effective address
  • M = Memory operand
Size op<ea>, An^ op<ea>, Dn op Dn, <M>
ADD B, W 8(1/0)+ 4(1/0)+ 8(1/1)+
L 6(1/0)+** 6(1/0)+** 12(1/2)+
AND B, W - 4(1/0)+ 8(1/1)+
L - 6(1/0)+** 12(1/2)+

L 6(1/0)+** 6(1/0)+** 12(1/2)+
  • +: Add effective address calculation time to specified instruction execution time.
  • ^: Word or long only
  • *: Maximum value (worst case)
  • **: Base time of six clocks is increased to eight if the effective address mode is register direct or immediate (effective address calculation time should also be added)
  • ***: The only available effective address mode is data register direct

DIVS and DIVU

The divide algorithm that is implemented in the 68000 gives a less than 10% time difference between best and worst case timings.

MULS and MULU

The multiplication algorithm implemented requires 38+2n clocks, where n is defined as:

  • MULU: n = the number of ones in the <ea>
  • MULS: n = concatanate the <ea> with a zero as the LSB; n is the resultant number of 10 or 01 patterns in the 17-bit source; i.e., worst case happens when the source is $5555

Immediate Instruction Execution Times

The number of processor clocks shown in this table indicate the time required to fetch the immediate operands, perform the operations, store the results, and to read the next instruction. When indicated by a +, the effective address calculation time must be added to the time required for the instruction itself.

  • n is the number of registers to move.
  • *: The size of the index register does not affect execution time of the instruction.

Multi-Precision Instruction Execution Times

The number of processor clocks shown in this table indicate the time required to fetch both operands, perform the multi-precision operations, store the results, and to read the next instruction.

Miscellaneous Instruction Execution Times

The number of processor clocks shown in this table indicate the time required for the shift and rotate instructions. When indicated by a +, the effective address calculation time must be added to the time required for the instruction itself.

Exception Processing Execution Times

This table indicates the amount of processor cycles required for the processor to process an exception and begin executing it's handler. Clock periods include the time required for all stacking, the vector fetch, as well as the fetch of the first two instruction words of the handler routine.

Exception Cycles
Address error 50(4/7)
Bus error 50(4/7)
CHK instruction (trap taken) 44(5/3) +
Divide by Zero 42(5/3)
illegal instruction 34(4/3)
interrupt 44(5/3) *
privilege violation 34(4/3)
RESET ** 40(6/0)
Trace 34(4/3)
TRAP instruction 38(4/3)
TRAPV instruction (trap taken) 34(4/3)
  • +: Add effective address calculation time to execution time.
  • *: The interrupt acknowledge cycle is assumed to take four clock periods.
  • ** indicates the time from when RESET and HALT are first sampled as negated to when instruction execution starts.
