The XRAM bytes can be accessed by indirect addressing, with EXTRAM bit cleared and MOVX instructions.
This part of memory which is physically located on-chip, logically occupies the first bytes of external data
memory. The bits XRS0 and XRS1 are used to hide a part of the available XRAM as explained in Table . This
can be useful if external peripherals are mapped at addresses already used by the internal XRAM.

With EXTRAM = 0, the XRAM is indirectly addressed, using the MOVX instruction in combination with any
of the registers R0, R1 of the selected bank or DPTR. An access to XRAM will not affect ports P0, P2, P3.6
(WR) and P3.7 (RD)
. For example, with EXTRAM = 0, MOVX @R0, # data where R0 contains 0A0H,
accesses the XRAM at address 0A0H rather than external memory. An access to external data memory locations
higher than the accessible size of the XRAM will be performed with the MOVX DPTR instructions in the
same way as in the standard 80C51, so with P0 and P2 as data/address busses, and P3.6 and P3.7 as write and
read timing signals. Accesses to XRAM above 0FFH can only be done thanks to the use of DPTR.

With EXTRAM = 1, MOVX @Ri and MOVX @DPTR will be similar to the standard 80C51. MOVX @ Ri
will provide an eight-bit address multiplexed with data on Port0 and any output port pins can be used to output
higher order address bits. This is to provide the external paging capability. MOVX @DPTR will generate a
sixteen-bit address. Port2 outputs the high-order eight address bits (the contents of DPH) while Port0 multiplexes
the low-order eight address bits (DPL) with data. MOVX @ Ri and MOVX @DPTR will generate either read
or write signals on P3.6 (WR) and P3.7 (RD).

The stack pointer (SP) may be located anywhere in the 256 bytes RAM (lower and upper RAM) internal data
memory. The stack may not be located in the XRAM.

The M0 bit allows to stretch the XRAM timings; if M0 is set, the read and write pulses are extended from 6 to
30 clock periods. This is useful to access external slow peripherals.

User software should not write 1s to reserved bits. These bits may be used in future 8051 family products to invoke new features. In
that case, the reset or inactive value of the new bit will be 0, and its active value will be 1. The value read from a reserved bit is
indeterminate.
