Program Plan Intro

Math instruction:

  • Math instructions refer to all output instructions that uses the data of two words or registers and perform the desired function.
  • Math instructions are program based on the type of processor used.
  • The data manipulation instructions are almost similar to math instructions.
  • The math instruction allows the PLC to take more of conventional computer qualities.
  • Math instructions are normally used to perform arithmetic functions on the values stored in memory words or registers.

Math functions:

The basic math functions performed by PLCs are as follows:

  • Addition
    • This function is used to add one piece of data to another.
    • It is also called as ADD.
  • Subtraction
    • This function is used to subtract one piece of data from another.
    • It is also called as SUB.
  • Multiplication
    • This function is used to multiply one piece of data by another.
    • It is also called as MUL.
  • Division
    • This function is used to divide one piece of data from another.
    • It is also called as DIV.

Terms used:

The following terms are used in the instruction.

  • Source A
    • Source A refers to the address of the first piece of data that is used in the instruction.
  • Source B:
    • Source B refers to the address of the second piece of data that is used in the instruction.
  • Destination
    • Destination refers to the address where the results of the instruction are stored.

answer with proper explanation and step by step solution. The instruction is to use a "loop" to write the MIPS code for this.
The instruction that moves each bit to the right, copies the lowest bit into the Carry flag, and copies the Carry flag into the highest bit position is the one that does this.
26. Find the time delay in the following program if the crystal frequency is 1 MHz. Do not ignore the time delay due to the first and last instruction. DELAY: LDI R16, 30 AGAIN: LDI R17, 35 HERE: NOP NOP DEC R17 BRNE HERE DEC R16 BRNE AGAIN RET
