8051 Basics
Introduction to 8051 Controller
8051 is an 8-bit microcontroller of the MCS-51 family first introduced by Intel, it is on-chip computer with 4 Kbytes of ROM and 128 Bytes of RAM
Getting Started with 8051 and Keil IDE
8051 microcontroller programming using Keil µVision IDE
8051 UART
8051 has an inbuilt UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) which is used to transmit and receive data bit by bit serially.
8051 Power down and Idle mode
8051 microcontroller provides features of power down and Idle mode to improve power consumption efficiency.
8051 Timers
8051 microcontrollers have two timers/counters, which can be used as either timer to generate delay or counter to count external events.
8051 Interrupts
8051 has an interrupt system which can handle internal as well as external interrupts with priority.
