When an ERF Bank is selected, register addresses 00h to 0Fh access those sixteen ERF
Bank registers—in effect replacing the first sixteen locations of the Z8
®
Standard Register
File.
For example, if ERF Bank C is selected, the Z8 Standard Registers
00h through 0Fh are
no longer accessible. Registers
00h through 0Fh are now the 16 registers from ERF Bank
C, Working Register Group 0. No other Z8 Standard Registers are affected because only
Working Register Group 0 is implemented in ERF Bank C.
Access to the ERF is accomplished through the Register Pointer (
FDh). The lower nibble
of the Register Pointer determines the ERF Bank while the upper nibble determines the
Working Register Group within the register file, as displayed in Figure 7.
The value of the lower nibble in the Register Pointer (
FDh) corresponds to the ERF Bank
identification. Table 4 lists the lower nibble value and the register file assigned to it.
