 Overflow flag
• Overflag is checked only for signed numbers.
• Unsigned 8 bit data ranges from 00H to FFH
• Signed 8 bit data
• Positive number ranges from 00H to 7FH
• Negative number ranges from 80H to FFH
• 7F(H)(0111 1111)BMSB is zero positive
number
• 80(H)(1000 0000)B MSB is one negative
number
 Parity flag
• When Accumulator has odd number of ones
parity flag will set.

• Eg. A (0010 1010)B; P1
