PIC24FJ256DA210 FAMILY
4.2.5 EXTENDED DATA SPACE (EDS)
The enhancement of the data space in
PIC24FJ256DA210 family devices has been
accomplished by a new technique, called the Extended
Data Space (EDS).
The EDS includes any additional internal extended
data memory not accessible by the lower 32 Kbytes
data address space, any external memory through
EPMP and the Program Space Visibility (PSV).
The extended data space is always accessed through
the EDS window, the upper half of data space. The
entire extended data space is organized into EDS
pages, each having 32 Kbytes of data. Mapping of the
EDS page into the EDS window is done using the Data
Space Read register (DSRPAG<9:0>) for read opera-
tions and Data Space Write register (DSWPAG<8:0>)
for write operations. Figure 4-4 displays the entire EDS
space.

Note: Accessing Page 0 in the EDS window will
generate an address error trap as Page 0
is the base data memory (data locations,
0x0800 to 0x7FFF, in the lower data
space).

memory using EPMP.
