Description

This instruction is used to call a subroutine. First PC is pushed onto the stack. The high-order byte of PC is pushed first, then the low-order byte. PC is then loaded with the value in HL, IX or IY, the 16-bit address of the first instruction of the subroutine. SP is updated to reflect the two bytes pushed onto the stack.
