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 ...

Some people think that programs for microcontrollers like the 8051 that have limited program memory must be written in assembly language rather than a high-level language like C. The executable code ...

Suppose for a moment that you're an engineer designing a new 8051-based product. Not unexpectedly, the application's code size will greatly exceed the 64KB architectural limit of the 8051's program ...

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 ...

Adding to the SuperFlash-based FlashFlex family of eight-bit, 8051-compatible microcontrollers, the SST89V54RD-33-C-QIF is available in a 6 mm x 6 mm x 0.8 mm WQFN package standing 0.7 mm in height, ...
