Instructions by Opcode

Legend
Mnemonic Description
b Identifies a one-bit expression in the range (0 to 7). The most-significant bit to the left is bit 7 and the least-significant bit to the right is bit 0.
cc Identifies the status of the Flag Register as any of (NZ, Z, NC, C, PO, PE, P, or M) for the conditional jumps, calls, and return instructions.
Cy Identifies the value of the Carry flag.
d Identifies a one-byte signed integer expression in the range ( -128 to +127).
e Identifies a one-byte signed integer expression in the range (-126 to +129) for relative jump offset from current location.
m Identifies any one of r, (HL), (IX+d) or (IY+d).
n Identifies a one-byte unsigned integer expression in the range (0 to 255).
nn Identifies a two-byte unsigned integer expression in the range (0 to 65535).
(nn) Identifies a two-byte unsigned integer expression in the range (0 to 65535) which points to an address in memory.
pp Identifies any one of the 16-bit registers BC, DE, IX, SP.
qq Identifies any one of the 16-bit registers BC, DE, HL, AF.
r Identifies any one of the 8-bit registers A, B, C, D, E, H, L.
rr Identifies any one of the 16-bit registers BC, DE, IY, SP.
(rr) Identifies the contents of the memory location, whose address is specified by the contents of any one of the 16-bit registers BC or DE.
ss Identifies any one of the 16-bit registers BC, DE, HL, SP.
(HL) Identifies the contents of the memory location, whose address is specified by the contents of the register pair HL.
(IX+d) Identifies the contents of the memory location, whose address is specified by the contents of the IX Index Register plus the signed displacement d.
(IY+d) Identifies the contents of the memory location, whose address is specified by the contents of the IY Index Register plus the signed displacement d.
x0 Identifies a single bit of the mnemonic.
x0-2 Identifies a range of bits of the mnemonic.
nlo Identifies the low-order byte of a 16-bit word.
nhi Identifies the high-order byte of a 16-bit word.
A′ Identifies a shadow register, which are not directly accessible.
Identifies an assignment to a target such as a register or memory location.

∧ &

AND Operation
+

∨ ||

OR Operation

Exclusive OR (XOR) Operation
¬

~

Negation
<< Bitwise left-shift operation
>> Bitwise right-shift operation
Port(y:x) Identifies the operation of reading or writing to an I/O port, with y denoting the upper byte and x denoting the lower byte of the I/O address. The upper byte of the I/O address is never able to be directly provided, it either is the value of the A register or 00h in the case of IN0/OUT0 on the Z180 processor.
