XADRS3 register

On previous ST10 devices, this register was already present but its value was mask

programmed. On the ST10F272Z2 this register has been made available to the user. In this

way the address range of the XRAM2 memory is now user-programmable.

The register functionality is the same as that of ADDRSELx registers used for external

address range selection, with some limitations:

●

The address window can only be located in the first megabyte of addressable space,

that is, in the 00’0000h-0F’FFFFh range

●

The window start address must be aligned to a Range Size boundary
