Hi.

I think there are defaults for both the W and the A bit.
So, as long as the defaults match your needs, technically
you should not need to specify them. But of course, the
code gets clearer if they are spelled out...

=C4mne: [PIC] 18Fxxxx Instructions

 Hi all,

It's been a long time since asking a question here :-)

I've started to use a 18F47K40 chip for a project and I'm still using
assembler for it.

In the other PIC families you could omit the destination bit (F) from an
instruction as the assembler sets it as default.

I gather this is not the case for 18F series when you can have a destinatio=
n
and RAM access bit

Eg.  ADDWF MyReg,W,A

Do all instructions have to be fully written in this way?

I am porting a 16F application to 18F because I need the extra ROM space. I=
f
this is the case then I will have to rewrite and qualify every instruction.

cheers

Tony
