1. The VDP reports in a status register the number of the first dropped sprite. 2. The ALU status register is one possibility. 3. The status register is a hardware register that contains information about the state of the processor. 4. The status register lets an instruction take action contingent on the outcome of a previous instruction. 5. Typically, flags in the status register are modified as effects of arithmetic and bit manipulation operations. 6. An interrupt status register and interrupt mask register were provided in each of the four processor states. 7. The 8087 handles infinity values by either affine closure or projective closure ( selected via the status register ). 8. Each buffer had a control register and status register to monitor its state and configure the raising of interrupts. 9. The adapter also writes timing information into status registers such that a device driver can optimize for any latency. 10. When handling an interrupt, the processor saves the status register on the stack and clears the low-power bits.
