Math Instructions
This chapter covers output instructions that allow you to perform
computation and math operations on individual words.
Instructions for use with fixed, SLC 5/01, and SLC 5/02 processors:
•
Add (ADD)
•
Subtract (SUB)
•
Multiply (MUL)
•
Divide (DIV)
•
Double Divide (DDV)
•
Negate (NEG)
•
Clear (CLR)
•
Convert to BCD (TOD
)
•
Convert from BCD (FRD)
•
Decode (DCD)
Instructions for use with SLC 5/02 processors only:
•
Square Root (SQR)
•
Scale (SCL)
Application techniques possible with Series C and later SLC 5/02 processors:
•
32-bit addition and subtraction
All application examples shown are in the HHT zoom display.
The following general information applies to math instructions.
Entering Parameters
•
Source – address(es) of the value(s) on which the mathematical, logical,
or move operation is to be performed; can be word addresses or program
constants. An instruction that has two source operands will not accept
program constants in both operands.
•
Destination – the address (destination) of the result of the operation.
Signed integers are stored in two’s complementary form. Refer to appendix
B for more information regarding two’s complement form.
