4.6 ACCUMULATOR
In the µPD750008, the A register and XA register pair function as accumulators. The A register is mainly
used for 4-bit data processing instructions, and the XA register pair is mainly used for 8-bit data processing
instructions.
For a bit manipulation instruction, the carry flag (CY) functions as a bit accumulator.
