PIC24F16KA102 FAMILY
4.0
MEMORY ORGANIZATION
As with Harvard architecture devices, the PIC24F
microcontrollers feature separate program and data
memory space and busing. This architecture also
allows the direct access of program memory from the
data space during code execution.
4.1
Program Address Space
The program address memory space of the PIC24F
devices is 4M instructions. The space is addressable by
a 24-bit value derived from either the 23-bit Program
Counter (PC) during program execution, or from a table
operation or data space remapping, as described in
The user access to the program memory space is
restricted to the lower half of the address range
(000000h to 7FFFFFh). The exception is the use of
TBLRD/TBLWT
 operations, which use TBLPAG<7> to
permit access to the Configuration bits and Device ID
sections of the configuration memory space. 
Memory maps for the PIC24F16KA102 family of
devices are displayed in
