TBLWT Table Write
Syntax: TBLWT ( *; *+; *-; +*)
Operands: None
Operation: if TBLWT*,
(TABLAT) → Holding Register,
TBLPTR – No Change;
if TBLWT*+,
(TABLAT) → Holding Register,
(TBLPTR) + 1 → TBLPTR;
if TBLWT*-,
(TABLAT) → Holding Register,
(TBLPTR) – 1 → TBLPTR;
if TBLWT+*,
(TBLPTR) + 1 → TBLPTR,
(TABLAT) → Holding Register
Status Affected: None

Description: This instruction uses the 3 LSBs of the
TBLPTR to determine which of the
8 holding registers the TABLAT is written to.
The holding registers are used to program
the contents of Program Memory (P.M.).
(Refer to Section 6.0 “Flash Program
Memory” for additional details on
programming Flash memory.)
The TBLPTR (a 21-bit pointer) points to
each byte in the program memory. TBLPTR
has a 2-MBtye address range. The LSb of
the TBLPTR selects which byte of the
program memory location to access.
TBLPTR[0] = 0: Least Significant Byte
of Program Memory

TBLPTR[0] = 1: Most Significant Byte of
Program Memory Word
The TBLWT instruction can modify the
value of TBLPTR as follows:
• no change
• post-increment
• post-decrement
• pre-increment

Example 1:
TBLWT *+;
Before Instruction
TABLAT = 55h
TBLPTR = 00A356h
HOLDING REGISTER
(00A356h) = FFh
After Instructions (table write completion)
TABLAT = 55h
TBLPTR = 00A357h
HOLDING REGISTER
(00A356h) = 55h
Example 2:
TBLWT +*;
Before Instruction
TABLAT = 34h
TBLPTR = 01389Ah
HOLDING REGISTER
(01389Ah) = FFh
HOLDING REGISTER
(01389Bh) = FFh
After Instruction (table write completion)
TABLAT = 34h
TBLPTR = 01389Bh
HOLDING REGISTER
(01389Ah) = FFh
HOLDING REGISTER
(01389Bh) = 34h
