The intel 8051 series 8bit microcontroller, originally introduced in 1980, remains popular and has had perhaps the longest product life of all such devices. It has become the industry standard for ...

This paper describes the design and implementation of a version of the 8051 microcontroller, one of the most commercially used microcontrollers in FPGA with reconfigurable instruction set.

Although 8051-compatible microcontrollers with SPI ports are available, a lower-cost device with an SPI port bit-banged through GPIO pins often suffices. The code shown here takes advantage of ...

Let’s say you’re working on a project, and you need a microcontroller. Which chip do you reach for? Probably the one you’re most familiar with, or at least the one whose programmer is hiding away in a ...

Bielsko-Biala/Poland, May 24th, 2010 - The silicon intellectual property (IP) provider, Evatronix SA, today announced the R80251XC – the high performance 32-bit Intel 80C251 compatible ...

A myriad of sophisticated control systems are emerging with demanding requirements for high-speed precision digital and analog performance. Cygnal Integrated Products addresses these demands with a ...

The 8051 8-bit microcontroller just keeps plugging away, adding new peripherals, speed grades, and packaging. Among the latest advances is Dallas Semiconductor's 8051 implementation that delivers a ...

At the introduction of the 12,000 gate 32bit ARM Cortex M0 recently, an ARM spokesman told EW the M0 was close to the 10,000 gates normally occupied by the 8bit 8051 microcontroller. Inspired by this, ...

Emulating older computers on microcontrollers has been a staple of retrocomputing for many years now, with most 8-bit and ...
