fr  (decrement  file  register  and  skip  if  zero),  INCSZ  fr
(increment file register and skip if zero), SNB bit (bit test
file register and skip if bit clear), and SB bit (bit test file
register and skip if bit set). These instructions will cause
the next instruction to be skipped if the tested condition is
true.  If  a  skip  instruction  is  immediately  followed  by  a
PAGE  or  BANK  instruction  (and  the  tested  condition  is
true) then two instructions are skipped and the operation
consumes  three  cycles.  This  is  useful  for  conditional
branching  to  another  page  where  a  PAGE  instruction
precedes a JMP. If several PAGE and BANK instructions
immediately  follow  a  skip  instruction  then  they  are  all
skipped plus the next instruction and a cycle is consumed
for each. 15.14    Logical Instruction The instruction set contain a full complement of the logi-
cal  instructions  (AND,  OR,  Exclusive  OR),  with  the  W
register  and  a  selected  memory  location  (using  either
direct  or  indirect  addressing)  serving  as  the  two  oper-
ands. 15.15    Shift and Rotate Instructions The  instruction  set  includes  instructions  for  left  or  right
rotate-through-carry. 15.16    Complement and SWAP The device can perform one’s complement operation on
the  file  register  (fr)  and  W  register.  The  MOV  W,<>fr
instruction  performs  nibble-swap  on  the  fr  and  puts  the
value into the W register. 15.17    Key to Abbreviations and Symbols PC<10:0> STACK 1 STACK 2 STACK 3 STACK 4 STACK 5 STACK 6 STACK 7 STACK 8 Symbol Description W Working register fr File register (memory-mapped register in the
