3.3.8 Input/Output Instructions
The Rabbit uses an entirely different scheme for accessing input/output devices. Any
memory access instruction may be prefixed by one of two prefixes, one for internal I/O
space and one for external I/O space. When so prefixed, the memory instruction is turned
into an I/O instruction that accesses that I/O space at the I/O address specified by the 16-
bit memory address used. For example
memory access instruction may be prefixed by one of two prefixes, one for internal I/O
space and one for external I/O space. When so prefixed, the memory instruction is turned
into an I/O instruction that accesses that I/O space at the I/O address specified by the 16-
bit memory address used. For example
IOI LD A,(0x85) ; loads A register with contents
; of internal I/O register at location 0x85.
LD IY,0x4000
IOE LD HL,(IY+5) ; get word from external I/O location 0x4005
By using the prefix approach, all the 16-bit memory access instructions are available for
reading and writing I/O locations. The memory mapping is bypassed when I/O operations
are executed.

I/O writes to the internal I/O registers require only two clocks, rather than the minimum of
three clocks required for writes to memory or external I/O devices.
