DIV

SYNTAX:

DIV[32|64] {@}R

1

, {@}R

2

{Index16|Immed16}

DESCRIPTION:

Performs a divide operation on two signed operands and stores the result to Operand 1. The
operation can be performed on either 32-bit (DIV32) or 64-bit (DIV64) operands.

OPERATION:

Operand 1 <= Operand 1 / Operand 2

Optional 16-bit immediate data/index

BEHAVIORS AND RESTRICTIONS:

• If Operand 2 is indirect, then the immediate data is interpreted as an index, and the Operand 2

value is fetched from memory as a signed value at address [R

2

+ Index16].

• If Operand 2 is direct, then the immediate data is considered a signed value and is added to the

register contents such that Operand 2 = R

2

+ Immed16

• If the instruction is DIV32 form, and Operand 1 is direct, then the upper 32 bits of the result are

set to 0 before storing to the Operand 1 register.

• A divide-by-0 exception occurs if Operand 2 = 0.
