Subtract (SUB)

Use the SUB instruction to subtract one value (Source B) from another (source A)
and place the result in the destination. Source A and B can either be a word address
or constant.

Updates to Arithmetic Status Bits

With this Bit:

The Controller:

S:0/0

Carry (C)

sets if borrow is generated; otherwise resets.

S:0/1

Overflow (V)

sets if underflow; otherwise reset. On underflow, the minor
error flag is also set. The value –32,768 or 32,767 is placed in
the destination. If S:2/14 (math overflow selection bit) is set,
then the unsigned, truncated overflow remains in the
destination.

S:0/2

Zero (Z)

sets if result is zero; otherwise resets.

S:0/3

Sign (S)

sets if result is negative; otherwise resets.
