SCLIP8 (SIMD 8-bit Signed Clip Value)

Type: SIMD

Syntax:

SCLIP8 Rd, Rs1, imm3u[2:0]

Purpose

:

Limit the 8-bit signed integer elements of a register into a signed range simultaneously.

Description

:

This instruction limits the 8-bit signed integer elements stored in Rs1 into a signed integer range between 2^imm3u-1 and -2^imm3u, and writes the limited results to Rd. For example, if imm3u is 3, the 8-bit input values should be saturated between 7 and -8. If saturation is performed, set OV bit to 1.

Operations:

src = Rs1.B[x];
if (src > (2^imm3u)-1) {
  src = (2^imm3u)-1;
  OV = 1;
} else if (src < -2^imm3u) {
  src = -2^imm3u;
  OV = 1;
}
Rd.B[x] = src
