8051 Architecture Fundamentals and Programming

Course id: 0056

Synopsis

It is widely recognized that where cost is a significant factor, 8-bit microcontrollers provide the most economical solution for embedded devices, and the 8051 family of microcontroller is one of the best-supported available today. This course is intended to prepare you to take the full advantage of 8051 microcontrollers for embedded system design.

Course Highlight
Participants will use the industrial standard Keil C51 compiler and simulator to gain in-depth knowledge of the processor core and develop real-world application code.

What you will learn

This course concentrates on the theoretical and practical knowledge to allow participants to achieve the following learning outcomes. Upon completing the course, participants would be able to:
  • Gain in-depth knowledge of the 8051 architecture
  • Understand the relationship between the instruction set and processor architecture
  • Understand the interaction between programming languages and machine code
  • Know how peripherals are controlled
  • Understand interrupts and how they are configured and used
  • Configure and use standard peripherals such as the I/O ports and timers

Who should attend

Engineers and technicians who are involved in 8051-based system design.

Prerequisite

Participants are required to have a background in electronics.

Course methodology

This course is presented in a workshop style with example-led lectures interlaced with hands-on practical for maximum understanding.

Course duration

4 days.
