PMINUB - Minimum of Packed Unsigned Byte Integers

Opcode Mnemonic Description
0F DA /r PMINUB mm1, mm2/m64 Compare unsigned byte integers in mm2/m64 and mm1 and return minimum values.
66 0F DA /r PMINUB xmm1, xmm2/m128 Compare unsigned byte integers in xmm2/m128 and xmm1 and return minimum values.
Description

Performs an SIMD compare of the packed unsigned byte integers in the destination operand (first operand) and the source operand (second operand), and returns the minimum value for each pair of byte integers to the destination operand. The source operand can be an MMX technology register or a 64-bit memory location, or it can be an XMM register or a 128-bit memory location. The destination operand can be an MMX technology register or an XMM register.
