To determine the amount of internal RAM and internal nonvolatile memory available for
the specific device and for details about the available option bits and vectors, refer to the
ZNEO product specification that is specific to your device .

Internal Nonvolatile Memory

Internal nonvolatile memory consists of executable program code, constants, and data.
The ZNEO CPU assembler provides configurable address range mnemonics (ROM and
EROM) that can be specified to locate data and program elements in nonvolatile memory.
ROM selects nonvolatile memory in the 16-bit address space, while EROM selects non-
volatile memory in the 32-bit address space. For more details about data space and seg-
ment definitions, refer to the assembler documentation.

For each product within the ZNEO CPU family, a block of memory beginning at address

00_0000H

is reserved for option bits and system vectors (RESET, trap, interrupts, System

Exceptions; etc.). Table 5 provides an example reserved memory map for a ZNEO CPU
product with 24 interrupt vectors.

Internal RAM

Internal RAM is employed for data and stacks. However, internal RAM can also contain
program code for execution. Most ZNEO CPU devices contain some internal RAM. The
base (lowest address) and top (highest address) of internal RAM are a function of the
amount of internal RAM available.

To determine the amount and location of internal RAM, refer to the ZNEO product specifi-
cation that is specific to your device .
