MAPPING THE ACCESS BANK IN
INDEXED LITERAL OFFSET MODE
The use of Indexed Literal Offset Addressing mode
effectively changes how the lower part of Access RAM
(00h to 5Fh) is mapped. Rather than containing just the
contents of the bottom part of Bank 0, this mode maps
the contents from Bank 0 and a user-defined “window”
that can be located anywhere in the data memory
space. The value of FSR2 establishes the lower
boundary of the addresses mapped to the window,
while the upper boundary is defined by FSR2, plus 95
(5Fh). Addresses in the Access RAM above 5Fh are
mapped as previously described (see Section 6.3.3
“Access Bank”). Figure 6-10 provides an example of
Access Bank remapping in this addressing mode.
Remapping of the Access Bank applies only to opera-
tions using the Indexed Literal Offset mode. Operations
that use the BSR (Access RAM bit is ‘1’) will continue
to use Direct Addressing as before. Any Indirect or
Indexed Addressing operation that explicitly uses any
of the indirect file operands (including FSR2) will con-
tinue to operate as standard Indirect Addressing. Any
instruction that uses the Access Bank, but includes a
register address of greater than 05Fh, will use Direct
Addressing and the normal Access Bank map.
6.6.4
BSR IN INDEXED LITERAL OFFSET
MODE
Although the Access Bank is remapped when the
extended instruction set is enabled, the operation of the
BSR remains unchanged. Direct Addressing, using the
BSR to select the data memory bank, operates in the
same manner as previously described.
FIGURE 6-10:
REMAPPING THE ACCESS BANK WITH INDEXED LITERAL OFFSET ADDRESSING
Example Situation:
ADDWF f, d, a
FSR2H:FSR2L = 120h
Locations in the region
from the FSR2 Pointer
(120h) to the pointer plus
05Fh (17Fh) are mapped
to the bottom of the
Access RAM (000h-05Fh).
Special Function Registers
at F60h through FFFh are
mapped to 60h through
FFh, as usual.
Bank 0 addresses below
5Fh are not available in
this mode. They can still
be addressed by using the
BSR.
