Is there an "End" for assembly?

I have an assembly routine that I want to·run on a new cog and to end as soon as the last ASM command completes.· Is there an "END" to put into the ASM, or does the cog stop automatically when it runs the last ASM command?

The reason I ask is because I remember seeing that once your ASM routine finishes, it goes into an endless loop.

    No there is no end; the COG is filled after what you think is the last instruction with arbitrary data!
    You can either go into an "endless loop" - add WAITCNT to reduce power consumption! - or stop the COG, fetching your own COG number and kill it. Consult the manual smile.gif

    Steel,
    deSilva is referring to this code fragment: 
              cogid      temp
          cogstop  temp
temp  long       0


    This effective resets the cog, shutting it down.
