Conditional Mnemonics (Flags)
Table 17 lists mnemonics used in conditional execution of special function and control instructions.
Notes:
Testing the state of the counters (c0 or c1) automatically increments the counter by one.
The heads or tails condition is determined by a randomly set or cleared bit, respectively. The bit is randomly set with a probability of 0.5. A random
rounding function can be implemented with either heads or tails. The random bit is generated by a ten-stage pseudorandom sequence generator
(PSG) that is updated after either a heads or tails test. The pseudorandom sequence may be reset by writing any value to the pi register, except
during an interrupt service routine (ISR). While in an ISR, writing to the pi register updates the register and does not reset the PSG. If not in an
ISR, writing to the pi register resets the PSG. (The pi register is updated, but will be written with the contents of the PC on the next instruction.)
Interrupts must be disabled when writing to the pi register.
If an interrupt is taken after the pi write, but before pi is updated with the PC
value, the
ireturn
instruction will not return to the correct location. If the RAND bit in the auc register is set, however, writing the pi register never
resets the PSG.
