Arithmetic Instructions - Intel 80C186XL User Manual

OVERVIEW OF THE 80C186 FAMILY ARCHITECTURE
Table 2-5 shows the interpretations of various bit patterns according to number type. Binary num-
bers can be 8 or 16 bits long. Decimal numbers are stored in bytes, two digits per byte for packed
decimal and one digit per byte for unpacked decimal. The processor assumes that the operands in
arithmetic instructions contain data that represents valid numbers for that instruction. Invalid data
may produce unpredictable results. The Execution Unit analyzes the results of arithmetic instruc-
tions and adjusts status flags accordingly.
