The Intel x86 (and thus also Pentium) opcodes like "AAD" ("ASCII adjust before division"), etc., suggest some dependency, but I admit that I didn't try to analyze what results it would have with EBCDIC.
BCD values are stored as "nibbles" (4 bit binary values), which are independent from character codes. A nibble happens to represent the low 4 bits of the digits, in both ASCII and EBCDIC.
