7.6.4
An overflow flag is provided for some exceptions during MDU calculations. There are three cases
where flag MDOV ARCON.6 is set by hardware:
Any operation of the MDU which does not match the above conditions clears the overflow flag. Note
that the overflow flag is exclusively controlled by hardware. lt cannot be written to.
7.6.5
An error flag, bit MDEF in register ARCON (figure 7-56), is provided to indicate whether one of the
arithmetic operations of the MDU (multiplication, division, normalize, shift left/right) has been
restarted or interrupted by a new operation.
This can possibly happen e.g. when an interrupt service routine interrupts the writing or reading
sequence of the arithmetic operation in the main program and starts a new operation. Then the
contents of the corresponding registers are indeterminate (they would normally show the result of
the last operation executed).

– Division by zero
– Multiplication with a result greater then 0000 FFFF H
– Start of normalizing if the most significant bit of MD3 is set (MD3.7 = 1).
