 +Comparison Table: AVR Registers R0–R15 vs. R16–R31
 +
 +^  Feature                      R0–R15                                                            ^  R16–R31                                        ^
 +|  Instruction compatibility    Cannot be used with immediate instructions (LDI, CPI, ORI, ANDI)  |  Fully compatible with immediate instructions   |
 +|  Opcode encoding              Not encodable in 4‑bit register fields                            |  Encodable in all immediate‑type formats        |
 +|  Typical compiler usage      |  Less preferred; used for temporary or special roles                Preferred for arithmetic and logic operations  |
 +|  Special-purpose roles        R0: scratch<br>R1: constant zero                                  |  R26–R31 used as X/Y/Z pointer registers        |
 +|  Pointer support              No                                                                |  Yes: X, Y, Z pointers                          |
 +|  Efficiency                  |  Less efficient for immediate operations                            More efficient due to shorter opcodes          |
 +|  Multiplication involvement  |  R0/R1 used implicitly for results                                  Not used by multipliers                        |
 +|  Suitability in ASM          |  Limited; avoid with immediates; R0/R1 have special rules          |  Recommended for general ALU operations         |
 +|  GCC policy                  |  R1 must remain 0; R0 is volatile                                  |  Treated as normal general-purpose registers    |

 +All of the registers RAMPX, RAMPY, RAMPZ, RAMPD, and EIND are located in the extended I/O space of AVR microcontrollers. This area typically occupies addresses 0x3B–0x3F, although the exact address of each register depends on the specific AVR device. The precise locations can always be found in the Register Summary section of the device datasheet.
