INSTRUCTION SET REFERENCE, A-M
CVTPI2PD—Convert Packed Doubleword Integers to Packed Double-
Precision Floating-Point Values
Description
Converts two packed signed doubleword integers in the source operand (second
operand) to two packed double-precision floating-point values in the destination
operand (first operand).
The source operand can be an MMX technology register or a 64-bit memory location.
The destination operand is an XMM register. In addition, depending on the operand
configuration:
For operands xmm, mm: the instruction causes a transition from x87 FPU to
MMX technology operation (that is, the x87 FPU top-of-stack pointer is set to 0
and the x87 FPU tag word is set to all 0s [valid]). If this instruction is executed
while an x87 FPU floating-point exception is pending, the exception is handled
before the CVTPI2PD instruction is executed.
For operands xmm, m64: the instruction does not cause a transition to MMX
technology and does not take x87 FPU exceptions.
In 64-bit mode, use of the REX.R prefix permits this instruction to access additional
registers (XMM8-XMM15).

DEST[63:0] Convert_Integer_To_Double_Precision_Floating_Point(SRC[31:0]);
