2.1.2 Vector Table Area
An area of 1 Kbyte beginning with the address shown in the table base register (TBR) is
used to store "EIT" vector addresses.
■ Overview of Vector Table Areas
An area of 1 Kbyte beginning with the address shown in the table base register (TBR) is used to store "EIT"
vector addresses. Data written to this area includes entry addresses for exception processing, interrupt
processing and trap processing.
The table base register (TBR) can be rewritten to allocate this area to any desired location within word
alignment limitations.
