Abstract
A processor which executes positive conversion processing, which converts coded data into uncoded data, and saturation calculation processing, which rounds a value to an appropriate number of bits, at high speed. When a positive conversion saturation calculation instruction 'MCSST D' is decoded, the sum-product result registeroutputs its held value to the path P. The comparatorcompares the magnitude of the held value of the sum-product result registerwith the coded 32-bit integer '0x0000_00FF'. The polarity judging unitjudges whether the eighth bit of the value held by the sum-product result registeris “ON”. The multiplexeroutputs one of the maximum value “0x0000_00FF” generated by the constant generator, the zero value “0x0000_0000” generated by the zero generator, and the held value of the sum-product result registerto the data bus
