Description

The carry bit (C) is added to the destination operand. The previous contents

 

of the destination are lost.

 

Status Bits

N: Set if result is negative, reset if positive

 

Z: Set if result is zero, reset otherwise

 

C: Set if dst was incremented from 0FFFFh to 0000, reset otherwise

 

Set if dst was incremented from 0FFh to 00, reset otherwise

 

V: Set if an arithmetic overflow occurs, otherwise reset

Mode Bits

OSCOFF, CPUOFF, and GIE are not affected.

Example

The 16-bit counter pointed to by R13 is added to a 32-bit counter pointed to
