Product Description
Product Description
This book is for work or fun - projects, exercises, and insights of the world's most popular microcontroller. Over 30 experiments and 13 complete projects demonstrate 8051 capabilities. CD-ROM gives you all the software you need to begin developing 8051 applications. This is a volume in TAB's hit "Microcontroller Series". This tutorial/disk package is unique in providing you with a complete understanding of the 8051 chip compatibles along with all the information needed to design and debug tailor-made applications using. "Programming and Customizing the 8051 Microcontroller" details the features of the 8051 and demonstrates how to use these embedded chips to access and control many different devices. This book shows you what happens within the 8051 when an instruction is executed, and it demonstrates how to interface 8051's with external devices.Giving you a wide range of experiments and exercises that provide hands-on experience with the 8051, this book also features: clear explanations of how the devices are electronically programmed, along with a design for Atmel 2010 microcontroller programmer that you build; tools for developing 8051 applications; two sample 8051 real time operating systems; help in programming both assembly language and high-level applications; and, tips to make code development and debugging easier. In addition, extensive appendices give you even more resources for help in developing and debugging 8051 applications, as well as expert tips on avoiding typical application problems.

Format:Paperback
This is really a brilliant book on the family of 8051 microcontrollers. Myke covers the different architectures by manufacturer and then goes on to focus on assembly language authoring.
Lots of practical examples of hardware design. Also, lots and lots of example programmes which develop the readers knowledge of assembly language.
I recommend this book very highly. Great projects!

This book explains the architecture of the 8051 microcontroller in a structured manner with plenty of good diagrams to clarify. There are many examples of how the 8051 may by interfaced to various common (and some more unusual) external devices. Each example discusses the relevant issues from both a hardware and a software viewpoint.
The author has taken time to ensure that all of the items necessary to get your first 8051 project up & running are included. For example, there is a circuit which shows how to make up simple power supply unit for an 8051 and details of how to reliably reset the device.
I especially liked the fact that the popular I2C and CAN busses were covered and that an example of a simple Real Time Op System was built up from first principles.
The appendix lists many contact points where a reader can find out more about the 8051, some frequently used software routines, a discussion of the popular simmstick format and other handy resources.
The accompanying CD ROM containes a demo copy of the popular UMPS assembler/debug environment as well as data sheets for many of the devices used in the book.
I'd recommend this book to anyone who has thought about using a microcontroller device, but hasn't had the necessary hardware and/or software know-how to get started. It would also be a good reference volume and source of new ideas for existing 8051 users.

Format:Paperback
This book will be of interest to enthusiasts, having numerous projects that can be built and coded. It is of little use to a professional developer using these products and cannot be regarded as a "serious" treatment of this subject. By and large it has some interesting features but it is marred by poor grammar, a rambling style (what he did next and why he thought such and such was a good solution), missing sentences and a lack of a clear conceptualisation of what he hoped to achieve. The
RTOS material could have done with a diagram of his system's architecture, or at least a readable description. Instead, he waffles around the subject and presents code which is almost as incomprehensible as his prose.
