C51: ACCESSING REGISTER BANKS IN C

Information in this article applies to:

• C51 All Versions

QUESTION

Is there a way to access register bank registers in C rather than using assembly language?

ANSWER

Yes. You may use the using function attribute to specify a different register bank. For example:

void func (void) using 2
{
}

The above function declaration uses register bank 2.
