Name Label Operation
Error Flag ER • ON if the base (B+1 and B) or exponent (E+1 and E) is not recognized as floating-point data.
• ON if the base (B+1 and B) or exponent (E+1 and E) is not a number (NaN).
• ON if the base (B+1 and B) is 0 and the exponent (E+1 and E) is less than 0. (Division by 0)
• ON if the base (B+1 and B) is negative and the exponent (E+1 and E) is non-integer. (Root of a neg-
ative number)
• OFF in all other cases.
Equals Flag
=
• ON if both the exponent and mantissa of the result are 0.
• OFF in all other cases.
Overflow Flag OF • ON if the absolute value of the result is too large to be expressed as a 32-bit floating-point value.
• OFF in all other cases.
Underflow Flag UF • ON if the absolute value of the result is too small to be expressed as a 32-bit floating-point value.
• OFF in all other cases.
Negative Flag N • ON if the result is negative.
• OFF in all other cases.
