(d) Auxiliary carry flag (AC)
If the operation result has a carry from bit 3 or a borrow at bit 3, this flag is set (1). It is reset (0) in all other cases.
(e) In-service priority flags (ISP1, ISP0)
This flag manages the priority of acknowledgeable maskable vectored interrupts. Vectored interrupt requests
specified lower than the value of ISP0 and ISP1 flags by the priority specification flag registers (PRn0L, PRn0H,
PRn1L, PRn1H, PRn2L) (see 17.3.3) can not be acknowledged. Actual vectored interrupt request
acknowledgment is controlled by the interrupt enable flag (IE).
Remark n = 0, 1
(f) Carry flag (CY)
This flag stores overflow and underflow upon add/subtract instruction execution. It stores the shift-out value upon
rotate instruction execution and functions as a bit accumulator during bit operation instruction execution.
(3) Stack pointer (SP)
This is a 16-bit register to hold the start address of the memory stack area. Only the internal RAM area can be set as
the stack area.

In stack addressing through a stack pointer, the SP is decremented ahead of write (save) to the stack memory and is
incremented after read (restore) from the stack memory.
Cautions 1. Since reset signal generation makes the SP contents undefined, be sure to initialize the SP
before using the stack.
2. It is prohibited to use the general-purpose register (FFEE0H to FFEFFH) space as a stack area.
3. The internal RAM in the following products cannot be used as stack area when using the self-
programming function and data flash function.

R5F10RxA (x = B, F, G, J, L): FFB00H to FFC89H
