NOP
No Operation. An instruction that has no effect when executed except to
advance the program counter.
Object Code
The intermediate code that is produced from the source code after it is
processed by an assembler or compiler. Relocatable code is code produced
by MPASM or MPLAB-C17/C18 that can be run through MPLINK to create
executable code. Object code is contained in an object file.
Object File
A module which may contain relocatable code or data and references to
external code or data. Typically, multiple object modules are linked to form a
single executable output. Special directives are required in the source code
when generating an object file. The object file contains object code.
Object File Directives
Directives that are used only when creating an object file.
Off-Chip Memory (PIC17CXXX and PIC18CXXX Devices Only)
Off-chip memory refers to the memory selection option for the PIC17CXXX or
PIC18CXXX device where memory may reside on the target board, or where
all program memory may be supplied by the Emulator. The Memory tab
accessed from Options > Development Mode provides the Off-Chip Memory
selection dialog box.
Opcodes
Operational Codes. See Mnemonics.
Operators
Arithmetic symbols, like the plus sign ‘+’ and the minus sign ‘-’, that are used
when forming well-defined expressions. Each operator has an assigned
precedence.
OTP
One Time Programmable. EPROM devices that are not in windowed
packages. Since EPROM needs ultraviolet light to erase its memory, only
windowed devices are erasable.
Pass Counter
A counter that decrements each time an event (such as the execution of an
instruction at a particular address) occurs. When the pass count value
reaches zero, the event is satisfied. You can assign the Pass Counter to break
and trace logic, and to any sequential event in the complex trigger dialog.
PC
Personal Computer or Program Counter.
