See Table Register, optionally shifted by constant
See Table Flexible Operand 2. Shift and rotate are only available as part of Operand2.
See Table PSR fields.
Either CPSR (Current Processor Status Register) or SPSR (Saved Processor Status Register)
Flag is unpredictable in Architecture v4 and earlier, unchanged in Architecture v5 and later.
Can be Rs or an immediate shift value. The values allowed for each shift type are the same as those
shown in Table Register, optionally shifted by constant.
x,y
B meaning half-register [15:0], or T meaning [31:16].
<imm8m>
ARM: a 32-bit constant, formed by right-rotating an 8-bit value by an even number of bits.
Thumb: a 32-bit constant, formed by left-shifting an 8-bit value by any number of bits, or a bit
pattern of one of the forms 0xXYXYXYXY, 0x00XY00XY or 0xXY00XY00.
<prefix>
See Table Prefixes for Parallel instructions
{IA|IB|DA|DB} Increment After, Increment Before, Decrement After, or Decrement Before.
IB and DA are not available in Thumb state. If omitted, defaults to IA.
<size>
B, SB, H, or SH, meaning Byte, Signed Byte, Halfword, and Signed Halfword respectively.
SB and SH are not available in STR instructions.

Notes
A
Not available in Thumb state.
B
Can be conditional in Thumb state without having to be in an IT block.
N
Some or all forms of this instruction are 16-bit (Narrow) instructions in Thumb-2 code. For details
see the Thumb 16-bit Instruction Set (UAL) Quick Reference Card.
P
Rn can be the PC in Thumb state in this instruction.
C
Condition codes are not allowed in ARM state.
C2
The optional 2 is available from ARMv5. It provides an alternative operation. Condition codes are not Q
allowed for the alternative form in ARM state.
Sets the Q flag if saturation (addition or substraction) or overflow (multiplication) occurs. Read and
reset the Q flag using MRS and MSR.
D
Deprecated. Use LDREX and STREX instead.
R
<sh> range is 1-32 in the ARM instruction.
G
Updates the four GE flags in the CPSR based on the results of the individual operations.
S
The S modifier is not available in the Thumb-2 instruction.
I
IA is the default, and is normally omitted.
T
Not available in ARM state.
L
ARM: <imm8m>. 16-bit Thumb: multiple of 4 in range 0-1020. 32-bit Thumb: 0-4095.
U
Not allowed in an IT block. Condition codes not allowed in either ARM or Thumb state.

Suffix
All ARM instructions (except those with Note C or Note U) can have any one of these condition codes after the
instruction mnemonic (that is, before the first space in the instruction as shown on this card). This condition is
encoded in the instruction.
All Thumb-2 instructions (except those with Note U) can have any one of these condition codes after the
instruction mnemonic. This condition is encoded in a preceding IT instruction (except in the case of
conditional Branch instructions). Condition codes in instructions must match those in the preceding IT
instruction.
On processors without Thumb-2, the only Thumb instruction that can have a condition code is B <label>.
