MOTOROLA
Part II. PowerPC Microprocessor Module
5.1.1 PowerPC RegistersÑUser Registers
The MPC860 implements the user-level registers defined by the PowerPC architecture
except those required for supporting ßoating-point operations (the ßoating-point register
Þle (FPRs) and the ßoating-point status and control register (FPSCR)). User-level,
PowerPC registers are listed in Table 5-1 and Table 5-2. Table 5-2 lists user-level
special-purpose registers (SPRs).
Table 5-2 lists SPRs deÞned by the PowerPC architecture implemented on the MPC860.
5.1.1.1 PowerPC User-Level Register Bit Assignments
This section describes bit assignments of PowerPC registers implemented by the MPC860.
For more details, see the Programming Environments Manual for 32-Bit Processors.
5.1.1.1.1 Condition Register (
CR)
The condition register (CR) is a 32-bit register that reßects the result of certain operations
and provides a mechanism for testing and branching. The bits in the CR are grouped into
eight 4-bit Þelds, CR0ÐCR7, as shown in Figure 5-1.
