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 ...

Microcontroller units (MCUs) are single-chip computers optimized for performing embedded computing tasks like controlling a ...

As a result, this project is set up as a how-to for others looking to dive further into the world of microcontrollers that don’t have the same hand-holding setup as the Arduino. To take care of the ...

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.

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 ...

Chipcon's CC2430 combines a 32-MHz 8051 microcontroller with an 802.15.4 transceiver. The combination can handle Chipcon's ZigBee stack. The chip is available in 32-, 64-, and 128-kbyte flash memory ...

The 8-bit C8051F064/5/6/7 microcontrollers are offered as the first to integrate a 25-MIPS 8051 MCU with dual 16-bit 1-Msample/s A/D converters (accurate to ±0.75 LSB). According to the company, the ...

The most efficient 8051 microcontroller core ever, is the claim of Polish intellectual property firm Digital Core Designs (DCD). Called DQ8051, the quad pipeline core benchmarks at 0.27292 DMips/MHz ...
