PIC18F6585/8585/6680/8680
6.2
The external memory interface implemented in
PIC18F8X8X devices operates only in 16-bit mode.
The mode selection is not software configurable but is
programmed via the configuration bits.
The WM<1:0> bits in the MEMCON register determine
three types of connections in 16-bit mode. They are
referred to as:
• 16-bit Byte Write
• 16-bit Word Write
• 16-bit Byte Select
These three different configurations allow the designer
maximum flexibility in using 8-bit and 16-bit memory
devices.

For all 16-bit modes, the Address Latch Enable (ALE)
pin indicates that the Address bits (A<15:0>) are avail-
able on the external memory interface bus. Following
the address latch, the Output Enable signal (OE ) will
enable both bytes of program memory at once to form
a 16-bit instruction word.
In Byte Select mode, JEDEC standard Flash memories
will require BA0 for the byte address line, and one I/O
line to select between Byte and Word mode. The other
16-bit modes do not need BA0. JEDEC standard static
RAM memories will use the UB or LB signals for byte
selection.
