PIC10f222 Calls Must Be In Lower Half of Page

[nickelflippr]

With assembler not being my native language , how do you make your calls to be in the lower half of the page. Would you start your program code at say 0x100, then what? The code has been abbreviated, so please ignore the unused memory locations for now.

 LIST p=10F222, r=DEC
#include <P10F222.inc>
 __CONFIG _IOSCFS_4MHZ & _MCPU_ON & _WDT_ON & _MCLRE_OFF

You could define the location the subroutine is located so you could intentionally place it in the lower half of the page.

Or if it must be in the upper half, you could use a goto jump.
Basically you call a goto instruction that points to the subroutine

The goto is placed in the lower half of the page and only takes one line while the actual subroutine it jumps to is located in the upper half.

Alright, using the goto trick does the job, thanks! I saw earlier in the datasheet that the goto's can address the whole page.

As far as the subs go, I'm a little dense on how you define code, or call location. I moved the subs up before Main, if that's what you mean? The disassembler listing seems to show the subs starting at 0x001, which is what I wanted. After a little fiddling with the simulator, the project builds O.K. now, and the blinky program is now working on the 10f222.

Any other comments regarding where ORG and goto 0x100 are in the program?

That looks about right.

I would just say that line 256 is referred to as

0x100
256
BASPROGRAMSTART

It can be confusing to call one thing, in this case an address, by three different names.

If you want to start the code at 256 you should just put

goto BASPROGRAMSTART

(subroutines)

Org 256
BASPROGRAMSTART

but really there is no need for the Org 256

You can just write

goto BASPROGRAMSTART

(subroutines)

BASPROGRAMSTART

and as long as your subroutines are short enough that the start of the last one is at an address <256, and there is room after the subroutines for the main code, you don't need to worry about where they are. If you don't keep the code or the subroutines short enough, the compiler will tell you anyhow.

Got it, thanks a bunch. The light bulb finally went off. I've got a couple of short subs, and one pretty long one (over 256 words), so now I know how to line things up.
