REGISTER FILE
Figure 3-1 compares the register file addresses of the 8XC196Lx and 8XC196Kx. The register
file in Figure 3-1 is divided into an upper register file and a lower register file. The upper register
file consists of general-purpose register RAM. The lower register file contains general-purpose
register RAM along with the stack pointer (SP) and the CPU special-function registers (SFRs).
Table 3-2 lists the register file memory addresses. The RALU accesses the lower register file di-
rectly, without the use of the memory controller. It also accesses a windowed location directly
(see “Windowing” on page 3-6). The upper register file and the peripheral SFRs can be win-
dowed. Registers in the lower register file and registers being windowed can be accessed with
register-direct addressing.
NOTE
The register file must not contain code. An attempt to execute an instruction
from a location in the register file causes the memory controller to fetch the
instruction from external memory.

NOTES:
1.
After a reset, the device fetches its first instruction from 2080H.
2.
The content or function of these locations may change in future device revisions, in which case
a program that relies on a location in this range might not function properly.
