The APSR contains the current state of the condition flags from previous instruction executions.
• N: Negative Flag
0: Operation result was positive, zero, greater than, or equal
1: Operation result was negative or less than.
1: Operation result was negative or less than.
• Z: Zero Flag
0: Operation result was not zero
1: Operation result was zero.
1: Operation result was zero.
• C: Carry or Borrow Flag
Carry or borrow flag:
0: Add operation did not result in a carry bit or subtract operation resulted in a borrow bit
1: Add operation resulted in a carry bit or subtract operation did not result in a borrow bit.
0: Add operation did not result in a carry bit or subtract operation resulted in a borrow bit
1: Add operation resulted in a carry bit or subtract operation did not result in a borrow bit.
• V: Overflow Flag
0: Operation did not result in an overflow
1: Operation resulted in an overflow.
1: Operation resulted in an overflow.
• Q: DSP Overflow and Saturation Flag
Sticky saturation flag:
0: Indicates that saturation has not occurred since reset or since the bit was last cleared to zero
1: Indicates when an SSAT or USAT instruction results in saturation.
This bit is cleared to zero by software using an MRS instruction.
0: Indicates that saturation has not occurred since reset or since the bit was last cleared to zero
1: Indicates when an SSAT or USAT instruction results in saturation.
This bit is cleared to zero by software using an MRS instruction.
• GE[19:16]: Greater Than or Equal Flags
