Abstract
A microprocessor for a vehicle control device includes: an instruction set; a register section with a status register, a first flag being provided in the status register for storing a logical result of a comparison operation; and an arithmetic logical unit. The status register comprises a second flag for storing the logical result of a second comparison operation. The instruction set comprises a first additional instruction, which performs a comparison among two handed-over operands, a result of the comparison being stored in the second flag. The instruction set comprises a second additional instruction, which selects and performs one of at least three pre-defined operations on a basis of a logic connection of values in the first flag and the second flag, for updating an upper boundary and/or a lower boundary of a search field in a binary search for a next iteration.
