2.2.8 Register Stack Pointer (RSP) and Register Stack
The register stack pointer (RSP) is a pointer that indicates the register stack address for
saving various registers.
RSP is a 4-bit up/down counter that is incremented during stack saves (execution of PUSH
instructions) and is decremented during stack restores (execution of POP instructions).
The register stack has 16 levels from address 0H to address 0FH. The contents of the register
stack cannot be read or written by the program.
Figure 2-4 shows the relation between RSP and the register stack.

Figure 2-4 Relation Between RSP and Register Stack
The various registers shown in Figure 2-5 are saved onto and restored from the register stack
by PUSH and POP instructions.
At system reset, RSP is initialized to "0" and points to address "0H" of the register stack.
