Code page 897

Code page 897 (CCSID 897)[1] is IBM's implementation of the 8-bit form of JIS X 0201. It includes several additional graphical characters in the C0 control characters area, and the code points in question may be used as control characters or graphical characters depending on the context,[2] similarly in concept to OEM-US, but with different graphical characters. The C0 rows are shown below.[2][3]

Amongst IBM's code pages, it accompanies code page 895, which encodes the ISO 646 set of JIS X 0201, and code page 896 (half-width katakana), which encodes the Kana set (upper half) of JIS X 0201 with extensions. When combined with the double-byte code page 301, it makes up the two code-sets of IBM code page 932 (IBM PC Japan MIX). When combined with the double-byte code page 941, it makes up code page 943 (equivalent to Windows-932, although Microsoft uses ASCII mappings for 0x00 though 0x7F). When combined with the double-byte code page 1393, it makes up code page 1394.
