Program Memory Program Memory OrganizationOrganization

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.

What are the two/four banksfor?

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. 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.

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)

Direct/Indirect Addressing

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) : ; BSF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank1 : ; BCF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank0 : ; MOVLW 0x60 ; Set RP0 and RP1 in STATUS register, other XORWF STATUS, F ; bits unchanged (Bank3) : ; BCF STATUS, RP0 ; Bank2 : ; BCF STATUS, RP1 ; Bank0

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 MOVWF FSR ;to RAM NEXT: CLRF INDF ;clear INDF register INCF FSR,F ;inc pointer BTFSS FSR,4 ;all done? (to 0x2F) GOTO NEXT ;no clear next CONTINUE:

;yes continue

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.

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 ;
