Opcode PACKSSWB


CPU: all which supported IA MMX:
Pentium (P55C only), Pentium (tm) Pro (P6) future models
Type of Instruction: User

Instruction: PACKSSWB dest,src

Description:

dest[7..0] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte dest[15..0]
dest[15..8] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte dest[31..16]
dest[23..16] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte dest[47..32]
dest[31..24] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte dest[63..48]
dest[39..32] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte src[15..0]
dest[47..40] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte src[31..16]
dest[55..48] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte src[47..32]
dest[63..56] <- SaturateSignedWordToSignedByte src[63..48]

Note: This instruction packs and saturates signed data from src and dest to
dest
