From Learn @ Cemetech
Jump to navigationJump to searchThe values of the two operands are added together, and the result is written back to the first one.

Syntax
add a,op8 ;8 bits add op16,op16 ;16 bits
Allowed instructions
add a,a add a,b add a,c add a,d add a,e add a,h add a,l add a,ixh add a,ixl add a,iyh add a,ixl add a,(hl) add a,(ix+n) add a,(iy+n) add a,n ;8-bit constant add hl,bc add hl,de add hl,hl add hl,sp add ix,bc add ix,de add ix,ix add ix,sp add iy,bc add iy,de add iy,iy add iy,sp
Effects
8-bit arithmetic
N flag is reset, P/V is interpreted as overflow. Rest of the flags is modified by definition.
16-bit arithmetic
preserves the S, Z and P/V flags, and H is undefined. Rest of flags modified by definition.
Uses
Obviously used to add two numbers together. However, you can add 16-bit numbers to sp, giving you control of where the stack pointer is pointing to.
T-States
r denotes 8-bit register. rr represents a two byte register pair: BC, DE, HL, SP

| X | 7 |
| (hl) | 7 |
| (ix+X) | 19 |
| (iy+X) | 19 |
| hl, rr | 11 |
| ix, rr | 15 |
