Description
PCMSB
12 Most significant bit in the Program Counter.
(The Program Counter is 13 bits PC[12:0])
PAGEM SB
5 Most significant bit which is used to address the
words within one page (64 words in a page
requires 6 bits PC [5:0]).
ZPCMSB
Z13 Bit in Z-register that is mapped to PCMSB.
Because Z0 is not used, the ZPCMSB equals
PCMSB + 1.
ZPAGEMSB
Z6 Bit in Z-register that is mapped to PAGEMSB.
Because Z0 is not used, the ZPAGEMSB
equals PAGEMSB + 1.
PCPAGE

PCWORD
PC[5:0] Z6:Z1 Program Counter word address: Word select,
