TABLE READS AND TABLE
WRITES
The PIC17C75X has four instructions that allow the
processor to move data from the data memory space
to the program memory space, and vice versa. Since
the program memory space is 16-bits wide and the
data memory space is 8-bits wide, two operations are
required to move 16-bit values to/from the data mem-
ory.

The TLWT t,fand TABLWT t,i,finstructions are
used to write data from the data memory space to the
program memory space. The TLRD t,fand TABLRD
t,i,finstructions are used to write data from the pro-
gram memory space to the data memory space.

PROGRAM MEMORY
The program memory can be internal or external. For
the program memory access to be external, the device
needs to be operating in extended microcontroller or
microprocessor mode.

Figure 8-1 through Figure 8-4 show the operation of
these four instructions.
