USING THE REGISTER POINTERS
Register pointers RP0 and RP1, mapped to addresses D6H and D7H in set 1, are used to select two movable
8-byte working register slices in the register file. After a reset, they point to the working register common area:
RP0 points to addresses C0H–C7H, and RP1 points to addresses C8H–CFH.
To change a register pointer value, you load a new value to RP0 and/or RP1 using an SRP or LD instruction (see
Figures 2-6 and 2-7).
With working register addressing, you can only access those two 8-bit slices of the register file that are currently
pointed to by RP0 and RP1. You cannot, however, use the register pointers to select a working register space in
set 2, C0H–FFH, because these locations can be accessed only using the Indirect Register or Indexed
addressing modes.
The selected 16-byte working register block usually consists of two contiguous 8-byte slices. As a general
programming guideline, we recommend that RP0 point to the "lower" slice and RP1 point to the "upper" slice (see
Figure 2-6). In some cases, it may be necessary to define working register areas in different (non-contiguous)
areas of the register file. In Figure 2-7, RP0 points to the "upper" slice and RP1 to the "lower" slice.
Because a register pointer can point to the either of the two 8-byte slices in the working register block, you can
define the working register area very flexibly to support program requirements.
