6. Address Spaces
The TSC80251G2D derivatives implement four different address spaces:
6.1 Program/Code Memory
The TSC83251G2D and TSC87251G2D implement 32 Kbytes of on-chip program/code memory. Figure 5 shows
the split of the internal and external program/code memory spaces. If EA# is tied to a high level, the 32-Kbyte
on-chip program memory is mapped in the lower part of segment FF: where the C251 core jumps after reset. The
rest of the program/code memory space is mapped to the external memory. If EA# is tied to a low level, the
internal program/code memory is not used and all the accesses are directed to the external memory.
The TSC83251G2D products provide the internal program/code memory in a masked ROM memory while the
TSC87251G2D products provide it in an EPROM memory. For the TSC80251G2D products, there is no internal
program/code memory and EA# must be tied to a low level.
Notes:
Special care should be taken when the Program Counter (PC) increments:
1. If the program executes exclusively from on-chip code memory (not from external memory), beware of executing code from the upper eight

bytes of the on-chip ROM (FF:7FF8h-FF:7FFFh). Because of its pipeline capability, the TSC80251G2D derivative may attempt to prefetch
code from external memory (at an address above FF:7FFFh) and thereby disrupt I/O Ports 0 and 2. Fetching code constants from these

increments beyond the end of segment FE:, it continues at the reset address FF:0000h (linearity). When PC increments beyond the end of
segment 01:, it loops to the beginning of segment 00: (this prevents from its going into the reserved area).
