PIC16C556A
The PIC16C55X(A) has a 13-bit program counter capa-
ble of addressing an 8K x 14 program memory space.
Only the first 512 x 14 (0000h - 01FFh) for the
PIC16C554(A), 1K x 14 (0000h - 03FFh) for the
PIC16C556A and 2K x 14 (0000h - 07FFh) for the
PIC16C558(A) are physically implemented. Accessing
a location above these boundaries will cause a
