Operands AX Accumulator high (AH) or accumulator low (AL) register
loc16 Addressing modes (see Chapter 5)
Description Compare the signed contents of the specified AX register (AH or AL) with the
signed content of the location pointed to by the “loc16” addressing mode and
load the AX register with the larger of these two values:
if(AX < [loc16]), AX = [loc16];
if(AX >= [loc16]), AX = unchanged;
Flags and
Modes
N
If AX is less then the contents of the addressed location (AX < [loc16]) then
the negative flag bit will be set; otherwise, it will be cleared.
Z
If AX and the contents of the addressed location are equal (AX = [loc16]) then
the zero flag bit will be set; otherwise, it will be cleared.
V
If AX is less then the contents of the addressed location (AX < [loc16]) then
the overflow flag bit will be set. This instruction cannot clear the V flag.
Repeat If the operation is follows a RPT instruction, the instruction will be executed
N+1 times. The state of the N, Z, and V flags will reflect the final result.
Example
; Saturate VarA as follows:
; if(VarA > 2000) VarA = 2000;
; if(VarA < −2000) VarA = −2000;
MOV AL,@VarA ; Load AL with contents of VarA
MOV @AH,#2000 ; Load AH with the value 2000
MIN AL,@AH ; if(AL > AH) AL = AH
NEG AH ; AH = −2000
MAX AL,@AH ; if(AL < AH) AL = AH
MOV @VarA,AL ; Store result into VarA
