3.1.1

READING PROGRAM MEMORY AS

DATA

There are two methods of accessing constants in

program memory. The first method is to use tables of

RETLW instructions. The second method is to set an

FSR to point to the program memory.

3.1.1.1

RETLW Instruction

The RETLW instruction can be used to provide access

to tables of constants. The recommended way to create

such a table is shown in Example 3-1.

EXAMPLE 3-1:

RETLW INSTRUCTION

The BRW instruction makes this type of table very

simple to implement. If your code must remain portable

with previous generations of microcontrollers, then the

BRW instruction is not available so the older table read

method must be used.

3.1.1.2

Indirect Read with FSR

The program memory can be accessed as data by

setting bit 7 of the FSRxH register and reading the

matching INDFx register. The MOVIW instruction will

place the lower eight bits of the addressed word in the

W register. Writes to the program memory cannot be

performed via the INDF registers. Instructions that

access the program memory via the FSR require one

extra instruction cycle to complete. Example 3-2

demonstrates accessing the program memory via an

FSR.

The HIGH directive will set bit<7> if a label points to a

location in program memory.
