Description: This instruction uses the 3 LSBs of
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 8.0 “Flash Pro-
gram 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-Mbyte 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

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 = 0x55
TBLPTR = 0x00A356
HOLDING REGISTER
(0x00A356) = 0xFF
After Instructions (table write completion)
TABLAT = 0x55
TBLPTR = 0x00A357
HOLDING REGISTER
(0x00A356) = 0x55
Example 2:
TBLWT +*;
Before Instruction
TABLAT = 0x34
TBLPTR = 0x01389A
HOLDING REGISTER
(0x01389A) = 0xFF
HOLDING REGISTER
(0x01389B) = 0xFF
After Instruction (table write completion)
TABLAT = 0x34
TBLPTR = 0x01389B
HOLDING REGISTER
(0x01389A) = 0xFF
HOLDING REGISTER
(0x01389B) = 0x34
