words, it always points to the top of the stack.

Data Pointer
The data pointer (DPTR) is 2-bytes wide. The lower part is DPL, and the highest is DPH. It can be loaded as a 2-
byte register (e.g. MOV DPTR, #data16) or as two separate registers (e.g. MOV DPL,#data8). It is generally used
to access the external code or data space (e.g. MOVC A,@A+DPTR or MOVX A,@DPTR respectively).
