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 ...

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 ...

In this paper the authors give a novel idea about the design and implementation of a microcontroller based pulse counter. Intel 8051 is used as the main microcontroller unit and the system has been ...

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 ...

The daddy of them all, 1972’s Intel 4004 went out of production in 1981. Thomas Nguyen, CC BY-SA 4.0 There are a few obvious contenders that immediately come to mind, for example both the 6502 from ...

Microcontrollers continue to improve their networking capabilities. CMX's DHCP Client, one of these improvements, eliminates the need to use fixed IP addresses on a range of 8- and 16-bit ...

Atmel’s wireless and microcontrollers business unit has appointed DT Electronics as a design-in distributor for its RF devices and 8051 microcontrollers in the UK and Ireland. The division of Atmel, ...
