SAM4S Series [DATASHEET]

Atmel-11100G-ATARM-SAM4S-Datasheet_27-May-14

Signed Bit Field Extract and Unsigned Bit Field Extract.
Syntax

SBFX{cond} Rd, Rn, #lsb, #width

UBFX{cond} Rd, Rn, #lsb, #width

where:
condis an optional condition code, see 

.

Rdis the destination register.
Rnis the source register.
lsbis the position of the least significant bit of the bitfield. lsb must be in the range

0 to 31.
widthis the width of the bitfield and must be in the range 1 to 32-lsb.
Operation
SBFX extracts a bitfield from one register, sign extends it to 32 bits, and writes the result to the destination register. 
UBFX extracts a bitfield from one register, zero extends it to 32 bits, and writes the result to the destination 

register. 
Restrictions
Do not use SP and do not use PC

Condition Flags
These instructions do not affect the flags.
Examples

SBFX

R0, R1, #20, #4

; Extract bit 20 to bit 23 (4 bits) from R1 and sign 

; extend to 32 bits and then write the result to R0. 

UBFX

R8, R11, #9, #10 ; Extract bit 9 to bit 18 (10 bits) from R11 and zero 

; extend to 32 bits and then write the result to R8.
