4.8. FP Control and Status Registers
The tables below list the registers which are currently
defined. Electrically, all of the registers in the FP subad-
dress space are both readable and writeable. Function-
ally, they are intended for either read or write (as shown
in the ‘mode’ column)
Warning:
The FP subaddress space accesses the RAM
of the fast processor. It is therefore very sensitive to
unintended access. In particular, the user must be sure
not to overwrite reserved areas.
