| Short Description | Base address of the tiles' graphics. |
- bits 7-6 = Read back as zero, write values ignored
- bits 5-0 = MSB of address of the tile definitions in Bank 5
The value written is an offset into Bank 5 allowing tile definitions to be placed at any multiple of 256 bytes.
Writing a physical MSB address as $40-$7F or $C0-$FF range is permitted (the top bits will be ignored).
The value read back may be treated as a full 8-bit value (with the top two bits equal to zero), i.e. upon writing value $EB the read of this register will produce value $2B (contrary to "reserved" bits in other registers, where read-value should be not assumed by code using it and masking by AND is recommended).
Default value after soft reset corresponds to the address $4C00, i.e. default value is $0C.
