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 ...

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 ...

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.

Woodcliff Lake, NJ, January 28, 2014 -- An 8051-compatible microcontroller core with 26.85 times the performance per MHz of the original 8051 chip is now available from semiconductor intellectual ...

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 ...

SST (Silicon Storage Technology), a leader in flash memory technology, has announced a new addition to the company’s popular SuperFlash-based FlashFlex family of 8-bit, 8051-compatible ...

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, ...

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML), announced today the addition of three ROM devices to its family of standard 8051-based USB microcontrollers. Complementing the available Flash versions, the new ...

For many years, the 8-bit microcontroller has been the workhorse of embedded systems. Design teams favor the size and power benefits that a tightly coupled processor, such as the 8051 microcontroller, ...
