2.1

Automatic Interrupt Context

Saving

During interrupts, certain registers are automatically

saved in shadow registers and restored when returning

from the interrupt. This saves stack space and user

code. See Section 7.5 “Automatic Context Saving”,

for more information.

2.2

16-Level Stack with Overflow and

Underflow

These devices have a hardware stack memory 15 bits

wide and 16 words deep. A Stack Overflow or Under-

flow will set the appropriate bit (STKOVF or STKUNF)

in the PCON register, and if enabled, will cause a soft-

ware Reset. See Section 3.5 “Stack” for more details.

2.3

File Select Registers

There are two 16-bit File Select Registers (FSR).

FSRs can access all file registers and program mem-

ory, which allows one Data Pointer for all memory.

When an FSR points to program memory, there is one

additional instruction cycle in instructions using INDF

to allow the data to be fetched. General purpose mem-

ory can now also be addressed linearly, providing the

ability to access contiguous data larger than 80 bytes.

There are also new instructions to support the FSRs.

See Section 3.6 “Indirect Addressing” for more

details.

2.4

Instruction Set

There are 49 instructions for the enhanced mid-range

CPU to support the features of the CPU. See Section

24.0 “Instruction Set Summary”

for more details.
