TRB & TSB

Test & Set/Reset Memory Bits against Accumulator

TRB - Test & Reset memory against Accumulator

TRB logically AND's the complement of the accumulator with the data at an address and stores the result in that address.

This has the effect of clearing each memory bit which is set in the accumulator, leaving the other bits unchanged.

The z flag is set based on a different operation. It's set if the memory location once set logically AND the accumulator (not it's compliment) is zero.

For 8-bit processors or when m=1, the values in the accumulator & memory are 8-bit.

For 16-bit processors, when m=0, the values in the accumulator & memory are 16-bit.

TSB - Test & Set memory against Accumulator

TSB is identical to TRB except it sets the bits defined in the Accumulator not reset them.

Flags Affected

Flags

Set if logical AND of memory & accumulator is zero, otherwise clear
