Dear Bill,

The combination                 MACSU Y0,X0,B   is invalid
the correct form is     MACSU X0,Y0,B

also be carefull when using the code warrior assembler, because
in this case Code Warrior changed the order without telling you.
Allways select the mix code option to verify that the code
was assembled in the correct form.

Subject: [motoroladsp] DSP56807 MACSU instruction operation

I am executing the following instruction on the DSP56807:

MACSU Y0,X0,B

Where, before execution:
Y0 = 0xFFF9
X0 = 0x041E
B = 0

After:
B = B2:B1:B0 = 0x00 083B C65C  (it is treating Y0 as unsigned)

Why doesn't this instruction treat Y0 as a two's-compliment signed
number? (ie. Y0 = -6), in which case the result would be:

B = 0xFF FFFF CE98

There has to be a simple explanation - someone please set me
straight...
Thank you - Bill Schintler
