Operands:
S: Exponent D: Operation result
Explanations:
1. The base is e = 2.71828 and exponent is S
2. EXP
[ S +1, S ] = [ D +1, D ]
3. Both positive and negative values are valid for S. Register D has to be 32-bit format. Operation
is conducted in floating point value, so the value in S needs to be converted into floating value
before exponent operation.
4. The content in D: e
S
, e =2.71828 and S is the specified exponent..
5. Flags: M1020 (Zero flag), M1021 (Borrow flag) and M1022 (Carry flag).
If absolute value of the result is larger than max. floating value, carry flag M1022 = ON.
If absolute value of the result is smaller than min. floating value, borrow flag M1021 = ON.
If the conversion result is 0, zero flag M1020 = ON.
Program Example:
1. When M0 = ON, convert (D1, D0) to binary floating value and save the result in (D11, D10).
2. When M1= ON, perform exponent operation with (D11, D10) as the exponent. The value is
saved in register (D21, D20) in binary floating format.
3. When M2 = ON, convert the value in (D21, D20) into decimal floating point value and save the
result in (D31, D30). (At this time, D31 indicates powers of 10 for D30)
