Started to separate the machine from the processor into separate sections. Should we do an all-in listing of opcodes for all processors, like for the 6502? • Removed malformed coments examples as they are no longer applicable • Added link to bugs/issue reporting 2020.09.09 • Correction to how the -m option actually works • Examples for good/bad comment formats added • Notes about SI unit usage • Added the -m (Maximum Output File Size) option • Added the -R (Remove Output File) option 2020.09.08 • Added a new Chapter - Source Code, and inside a description of the source code format, including line ending format,and the various commenting styles. • Clarified the difference in usage of brackets on F8/6502 • Fixed some errors in the Atari 2600 section. Switched to SI standard units for describing powers of 2 sizes. I suspect people may not like that! 2020.09.07 • Added the really unusal (and deprecated) definition for labels... "[ ]...^[ ]...label". This is a suppored/valid format, but it is likely to be removed.

  • The Unofficial History of 8051. by Jan Waclawek (Wek at Efton.Sk)
    The unofficial history of 8051. by Jan Waclawek (wek at efton.sk) Preface In 2005, the 8051 microcontroller celebrated it's 25th anniversary. I thought Intel will grab on the opportunity and perhaps add an item to their "museum" site, or remember in other way - but they did not. When I asked for some historical recollections on those days, I received a copy of a 8051 datasheet, dated 1980 and marked "preliminary". Well, I expected something else - but thanks for that, too. But, also in 2005, Intel notified they discontinue all automotive versions of their microcontrollers, including 8051. Car engine control units were once perhaps the most prominent application for 8051s. This means only one thing, Intel gives up the microcontrollers for good. This is confirmed by product change notification published in early 2006, announcing that Intel drops its whole microcontroller business. So, it is not too likely Intel will ever write up the history of 8051. It seems it is up to the volunteers, then. I came to 8051's quite late, so I can't remember most of its history. I just collected a couple of facts I found interesting, fascinating. My thanks go to the 8052.com1 discussion forum, where the idea of this document came from, and the forum users, contributing and correcting many of the details. I invite any correction, being it spelling, wording or factual; and of course additions and ideas to this document. Chapter -1 8048: Prehistory. In fact, it should have started with chapter -2, the invention of microprocessor. Intel introduced a single-chip processor, the 4004, in 1971.

  • Overview of Microprocessors
    C HAPTER – 1 OVERVIEW OF MICROPROCESSORS 1.1 GENERAL A microprocessor is one of the most exciting technological innovations in electronics since the appearance of the transistor in 1948. This wonder device has not only set in the process of revolutionizing the field of digital electronics, but it is also getting entry into almost every sphere of human life. Applications of microprocessors range from the very sophisticated process controllers and supervisory control equipment to simple game machines and even toys. It is, therefore, imperative for every engineer, specially electronics engineer, to know about microprocessors. Every designer of electronic products needs to learn how to use microprocessors. Even if he has no immediate plans to use a microprocessor, he should have knowledge of the subject so that he can intelligently plan his future projects and can make sound engineering judgements when the time comes. The subject of microprocessors is overviewed here with the objective that a beginner gets to know what a microprocessor is, what it can do, how it fits in a system and gets an overall idea of the various components of such a system. Once he has understood signam of each component and its place in the system, he can go deeper into the working details and design of individual components without difficulty. 1.2 WHAT IS A MICROCOMPUTER? To an engineer who is familiar with mainframe and mini computers, a microcomputer is simply a less powerful mini computer. Microcomputers have smaller instruction sets and are slower than mini computers, but then they are far less expensive and smaller too.
