Using the Z8 Encore!® Linker White Paper

2022-06-09

●Abstract
■The ZiLOG Z8 Encore! Linker takes object files and libraries as input and links them together to generate an executable load file. This document provides an overview of the functionality of the linker and how it can be used along with the compiler/assembler provided in ZDSII to generate an output load file which can be downloaded into the target system. Please refer to the ZDSII User's Manual wher-ever details of the linker command syntax are needed.The linker performs two major functions:
◆Links together object modules and libraries into one executable load file by resolving external references.
◆Locates the relocatable segments and assigns absolute addresses to them.
■ZiLOG microcontrollers, including the Z8 Encore!, support multiple address spaces. The ZiLOG Xtools C compiler, assembler and linker together provide a mechanism to use these address spaces. The compiler provides language exten-sions to declare variables in different address spaces. The assembler provides a means to associate a segment with an address space, and the linker has the abil-ity to link multiple segments associated with an address space and locate them.
