MEMORY ORGANIZATION
PIC12C5XX memory is organized into program mem-
ory and data memory. For devices with more than 512
bytes of program memory, a paging scheme is used.
Program memory pages are accessed using one STA-
TUS register bit. For the PIC12C509, PIC12C509A,
PICCR509A and PIC12CE519 with a data memory
register file of more than 32 registers, a banking
scheme is used. Data memory banks are accessed
using the File Select Register (FSR).

a
location above these boundaries will cause a wrap-
around within the first 512 x 12 space (PIC12C508,
PIC12C508A and PIC12CE518) or 1K x 12 space
(PIC12C509, PIC12C509A, PIC12CR509A and
PIC12CE519). The effective reset vector is at 000h,
(see Figure 4-1). Location 01FFh (PIC12C508,
PIC12C508A and PIC12CE518) or location 03FFh
(PIC12C509, PIC12C509A, PIC12CR509A and
PIC12CE519) contains the internal clock oscillator
calibration value. This value should never be
overwritten.
