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

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.

As you may recall, in my previous column, I started to consider why the 30-year-old eight-bit 8051 microcontroller remains a valuable player in the embedded systems game. The days, months, and years ...

Editor's Note: View the Fundamentals of Microcontrollers to catch up on the architectural differences, selection, set up and programming of today's micros. To work through the thicket of choices, it's ...

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 31, 2003--Data I/O(R) Corporation (Nasdaq:DAIO), the leading provider of manual and automated programming systems today announced support for Flash-based ...

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 ...

For years it was a given that it was impossible to run a Linux based operating system on a less powerful computer whose architecture lacked a memory management unit. There were projects such as ...

US-based e2v aerospace and defense is offering a qualified family of re-engineered 8-bit 80C51 microcontrollers. Manufactured on a mainstream CMOS process, and compliant to Defense Logistics Agency ...

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 ...
