PIC16F630/676
A simple program to clear RAM location 20h-2Fh using
indirect addressing is shown in Example 2-1.
2.4
Indirect Addressing, INDF and
FSR Registers
The INDF register is not a physical register. Addressing
the INDF register will cause indirect addressing.
EXAMPLE 2-1:
INDIRECT ADDRESSING

0x20
;initialize pointer
;to RAM
Indirect addressing is possible by using the INDF
register. Any instruction using the INDF register
actually accesses data pointed to by the File Select
register (FSR). Reading INDF itself indirectly will
produce 00h. Writing to the INDF register indirectly
results in a no operation (although STATUS bits may be
affected). An effective 9-bit address is obtained by
concatenating the 8-bit FSR register and the IRP bit
(STATUS<7>), as shown in Figure 2-4.
