#190873 - 16 * 16 bit
Hi,
Here is a nice piece of code to multiply two 16 bit operands, signed and unsigned.
Can someone please explain me the methodology used in the calculation loop.
That is from label "M16_Loop:" to "M16_Calculations done".
All the rest of the code is clear to me except that part.
Thanks a lot!


;----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
;Function name: mul_16x16_signed
;Description..: Multiplies 2 signed 16-bit operands resulting in a signed 32-bit number.
;				Control flag MathLib_Res1Neg is set with negative result.
;
;
;Function name: mul_16x16_unsigned
;Description..: Multiplies 2 unsigned 16-bit operands resulting in a unsigned 32-bit number.
;
;
;Function name: mul_16x16_signed_op1
;Description..: Multiplies signed 16-bit operand (op1) by 
;				unsigned 16-bit operand (op2) resulting in a signed 32-bit number.
;				Control flag MathLib_Res1Neg is set with negative result.
;
;
;Inputs: Operand 1 HB = MathLib_Op1+0
;				   LB = MathLib_Op1+1
;
;		 Operand 2 HB = MathLib_Op2+0
;				   LB = MathLib_Op2+1
;
;Output:    Result HB = MathLib_Res1+0
;						MathLib_Res1+1
;						MathLib_Res1+2
;				   LB = MathLib_Res1+3
;
;	 Negative result: MathLib_Res1Neg = 1
