6. Program Memory Organization  The PIC16F87X devices have a 13-bit program counter capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory space.  The PIC16F877/876 devices have 8K x 14 words of FLASH program memory.  Accessing a location above the physically implemented address will cause a wraparound.  The RESET vector is at 0000h and the interrupt vector is at 0004h.

7. Data Memory Organization  The data memory is partitioned into multiple banks which contain the General Purpose Registers and the Special Function Registers. Bits RP1 (STATUS ) and RP0 (STATUS ) are the bank select bits.  Each bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes).  The lower locations of each bank are reserved for the Special Function Registers.  Above the Special Function Registers are General Purpose Registers, implemented as static RAM.  All implemented banks contain Special Function Registers.  Some frequently used Special Function Registers from one bank may be mirrored in another bank for code reduction and quicker access.

9. What are the two/four banks for?  Memory space is organized in 128Byte banks.  PIC 16F684 has two banks - Bank 0 and Bank 1.  Bank 1 is used to control the actual operation of the PIC for example to tell the PIC which bits of Port A are input and which are output.  Bank 0 is used to manipulate the data.  An example is as follows: Let us say we want to make one bit on Port A high. Let us say we want to make one bit on Port A high. First we need to go to Bank 1 to set the particular bit, or pin, on Port A as an output. First we need to go to Bank 1 to set the particular bit, or pin, on Port A as an output. We then come back to Bank 0 and send a logic 1 (bit 1) to that pin. We then come back to Bank 0 and send a logic 1 (bit 1) to that pin.

10. Special Function Registers  W, the working register. To move values from one register to another register, the value must pass through the W register.  FSR (04h,84h,104h,184h), File Select Register  Indirect data memory addressing pointer INDF (00h,80h,100h,180h) accessing INDF accesses the location pointed by IRP+FSR  PC, the Program Counter, PCL (02h, 82h, 102h, 182h) and PCLATH (0Ah, 8Ah, 10Ah, 18Ah)

12. Direct/Indirect Addressing

13. Direct Addressing  Use only 7 bits of instruction to identify a register file address.  The other two bits of register address come from RP0 and RP1 bits in the STATUS register  Example: Bank switching (Note: case of 4 banks) CLRF STATUS ; Clear STATUS register (Bank0) CLRF STATUS ; Clear STATUS register (Bank0) : ; : ; BSF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank1 BSF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank1 : ; : ; BCF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank0 BCF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank0 : ; : ; MOVLW 0x60 ; Set RP0 and RP1 in STATUS register, other MOVLW 0x60 ; Set RP0 and RP1 in STATUS register, other XORWF STATUS, F ; bits unchanged (Bank3) XORWF STATUS, F ; bits unchanged (Bank3) : ; : ; BCF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank2 BCF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank2 : ; : ; BCF STATUS, RP1 ; Bank0 BCF STATUS, RP1 ; Bank0

14. Indirect Addressing  The INDF register is not a physical register. Addressing the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.  Any instruction using the INDF register actually access the register  pointed to by the File Select Register (FSR).  The effective 9-bit address is obtained by concatenating the 8-bit  FSR register and the IRP bit in STATUS register.  Example MOVLW 0x20 ;initialize pointer MOVLW 0x20 ;initialize pointer MOVWF FSR ;to RAM MOVWF FSR ;to RAM NEXT: CLRF INDF ;clear INDF register NEXT: CLRF INDF ;clear INDF register INCF FSR,F ;inc pointer INCF FSR,F ;inc pointer BTFSS FSR,4 ;all done? (to 0x2F) BTFSS FSR,4 ;all done? (to 0x2F) GOTO NEXT ;no clear next GOTO NEXT ;no clear next CONTINUE: CONTINUE:  ;yes continue

15. I/O Ports  General I/O pins are the simplest of peripherals used to monitor and control other devices.  For most ports, the I/O pin’s direction (input or output) is controlled by the data direction register TRISx (x=A,B,C,D,E).  A ‘1’ in the TRIS bit corresponds to that pin being an input, while a ‘0’ corresponds to that pin being an output  The PORTx register is the latch for the data to be output. Reading PORTx register read the status of the pins, whereas writing to it will write to the port latch.

16. Example: Initializing PORTD  bcf STATUS, RP0 ; bank0  bcf STATUS, RP1  clrf PORTD ; initializing PORTD by clearing output data latches  bsf STATUS, RP0 ; select bank1  movlw 0xCF ; value used to initialize data direction (1100 1111)  movwf TRISD ; PORTD =inputs, ;PORTD =outputs, PORTD =inputs
