PIC16F872-I

28-Pin, 8-Bit CMOS FLASH Microcontroller

Microchip Technology 

2.0 MEMORY ORGANIZATION

There are three memory blocks in each of these

PICmicro® MCUs. The Program Memory and Data

Memory have separate buses, so that concurrent

access can occur, and is detailed in this section. The

EEPROM data memory block is detailed in

Section 4.0.

Additional information on device memory may be found

in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range Reference Manual,

(DS33023).

2.1 Program Memory Organization

The PIC16F872 devices have a 13-bit program counter

capable of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory

space. The PIC16F872 device has 2K x 14 words of

FLASH program memory. Accessing a location above

the physically implemented address will cause a wrap-

around.

The reset vector is at 0000h and the interrupt vector is

at 0004h.

2.2 Data Memory Organization

The data memory is partitioned into multiple banks

which contain the General Purpose Registers and the

Special Function Registers. Bits RP1(STATUS<6>)

and RP0 (STATUS<5>) are the bank select bits.

Each bank extends up to 7Fh (128 bytes). The lower

locations of each bank are reserved for the Special

Function Registers. Above the Special Function Regis-

ters are General Purpose Registers, implemented as

static RAM. All implemented banks contain Special

Function Registers. Some “high use” Special Function

Registers from one bank may be mirrored in another

bank for code reduction and quicker access.

Note: EEPROM Data Memory description can be

found in Section 4.0 of this Data Sheet

2.2.1 GENERAL PURPOSE REGISTER FILE

The register file can be accessed either directly, or indi-

rectly through the File Select Register FSR.
