2.3.3  RAM
The user RAM consists of 352 bytes of a shared stack area. The RAM
starts at address $0020 and ends at address $017F. The stack begins
at address $00FF. The stack pointer can access 64 bytes of RAM in the
range $00FF to $00C0.
NOTE:
Using the stack area for data storage or temporary work locations
requires care to prevent it from being overwritten due to stacking from an
interrupt or subroutine call.
2.4  Input/Output Programming
In user mode, 20 lines (28-pin PDIP or 28-pin SOIC) or 24 lines (44-lead
PLCC) are arranged as three 8-bit I/O ports. These ports are
programmable as either inputs or outputs under software control of the
data direction registers. For detailed information, refer to
