Operands:
S
1
: Base S
2
: Antilogarithm D: Operation result
Explanations:
1. Perform logarithm operation with S
1
as the base and S
2
as the antilogarithm and save the result
in D.
2. Only a positive number is 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
logarithm operation.
3. Logarithm operation: S

Example: Assume S

= 5, S

= 125, S

4. 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) and (D3, D2) to binary floating value and save the result in
register (D11, D10) and (D13, D12) individually.
2. When M1= ON, perform logarithm operation with (D11, D10) as base and (D13, D12) as
antilogarithm. The results are 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)
