AAA
Logic: If (AL & 0Fh) > 9 or (AF = 1) then
AL AL + 6
AH AH + 1
AF 1; CF 1
else
AF 0; CF 0
AL AL & 0Fh
Converts the number in the lower 4 bits (nibble) of AL to an unpacked
BCD number (high-order nibble of AL is zeroed).

If the lower 4 bits of the number in AL is greater than 9, or the
auxiliary carry flag is set, this instruction converts AL to its
unpacked BCD form by adding 6 (subtracting 10) to AL; adding 1 to AH;
and setting the auxiliary flag and carry flags. This instruction will
always leave 0 in the upper nibble of AL.
Note: Unpacked BCD stores one digit per byte; AH contains
the most-significant digit and AL the least-
significant digit.
