4.2.3 Memory map for V-RAM accessing state
Memory addresses are changed when the V-RAM
is
accessed. The
RAM
addresses in the normal
state range from
$0000
to
$7FFF
for RAM (1), and from $8000
to
$FFFF
for
RAM
(II). When the
V-RAM is accessed, addresses
$DOOO
to
$FFFF
of
RAM (II) are disabled so
that
the
V-RAM will be
access object.
This changeover is effected
by
A
7
of
PIO. When
two
pages
of
graphic V-RAM are used, selection
of
graphic pages
(I)
and (II)
is
made
by
OUT
port
$F4. This operation
is
shown in FIGURE 4.4.
