NOTE:
V — Overflow Flag
H — Half-Carry Flag
I — Interrupt Mask
To maintain M6805 compatibility, the upper byte of the index register (H)
is not stacked automatically. If the interrupt service routine modifies H,
then the user must stack and unstack H using the PSHH and PULH
instructions.
The CPU sets the overflow flag when a two's complement overflow
occurs. The signed branch instructions BGT, BGE, BLE, and BLT use
the overflow flag.
The CPU sets the half-carry flag when a carry occurs between
accumulator bits 3 and 4 during an add-without-carry (ADD) or
add-with-carry (ADC) operation. The half-carry flag is required for
binary-coded decimal (BCD) arithmetic operations. The DAA
instruction uses the states of the H and C flags to determine the
appropriate correction factor.
When the interrupt mask is set, all maskable CPU interrupts are
disabled. CPU interrupts are enabled when the interrupt mask is
cleared. When a CPU interrupt occurs, the interrupt mask is set
automatically after the CPU registers are saved on the stack, but
before the interrupt vector is fetched.
After the I bit is cleared, the highest-priority interrupt request is
serviced first.
A return-from-interrupt (RTI) instruction pulls the CPU registers from
the stack and restores the interrupt mask from the stack. After any
reset, the interrupt mask is set and can be cleared only by the clear
interrupt mask software instruction (CLI).
1 = Overflow
0 = No overflow
1 = Carry between bits 3 and 4
0 = No carry between bits 3 and 4
1 = Interrupts disabled
0 = Interrupts enabled
