The Intel 8051 C


In 1981, Intel came out with an 8-bit uC called 8051 This uC had 128 bytes of RAM, 4K (4096) bytes of on-chip ROM, 2 timers, 1 serial port, and 4 8bit wide I/O ports all on a single chip The 8051 is an 8-bit processor, meaning that the CPU can work on only 8 bits of data at a time. Data larger than 8 bits has to be broken into 8bit pieces to be processed by the CPU.

Although the 8051 can have a maximum of 64K bytes of on-chip ROM, many manufacturers have put only 4K bytes or 4096 bytes on the chip. The 8051 became widely popular after Intel allowed other manufacturers to make and market any flavors of the 8051 they please with the condition that they remain code-compatible with the 8051. This has led to many versions of the 8051 with different speeds and amounts of on-chip ROM marketed by more than half a dozen manufacturers.

JUMP AND LOOP INSTRUCTIONS

LOOP AND JUMP INSTRUCTIONS


Repeating a sequence of instructions a certain number of times is called a loop. The loop action is performed by the instruction
DJNZ reg, label.

In this instruction, the register is decremented; if it is not zero, it jumps to the target address referred to by the label. Prior to the start of the loop the register is loaded with the counter for the number of repetitions. In this instruction both the register decrement and the decision to jump arc combined into a single instruction. The registers can be any of R0 - R7. The counter can also be a RAM location

Loop inside a loop


What happens if we want to repeat an action more times than 256?
Write a program to (a) load the accumulator with the value 55H, and (b) complement the ACC 700 times. Since 700 is larger than 255 (the maximum capacity of any register), we use two registers to hold the count. The following code shows how to use R2 and R3 for the count. MOV A,#55H ;A=55H NEXT: MOV R3,#10 ;R3=10, the outer loop count AGAIN: CPL A MOV R2,#70 ;complement ;R2=70, the inner loop count

LOOP AND JUMP INSTRUCTIONS


Other conditional jumps

Other conditional jumps


JZ (jump if A = 0)
In this instruction the content of register A is checked. If it is zero, it jumps to the target address. JZ instruction can be used only for register A. It can only check to see whether the accumulator is zero, and it does not apply to any other register. Don't have to perform an arithmetic instruction such as decrement to use the JZ instruction.

Other conditional jumps


JNZ (jump if A 0)
In this instruction the content of register A is checked. If it is not zero, it jumps to the target address.

Other conditional jumps


JNC Jump if no carry, jumps if CY = 0)
carry flag bit in the flag (PSW) register is used to make the decision whether to jump "JNC label", the processor looks at the carry flag to see if it is raised (CY = 1). if it is not, the CPU starts to fetch and execute instructions from the address of the label. if CY = 1, it will not jump but will execute the next instruction below JNC.

Other conditional jumps


JC Jump if carry, jumps if CY = 1)
if CY = l it jumps to the target address

JB (jump if bit is high) JNB (jump if bit is low)

LOOP AND JUMP INSTRUCTIONS


All conditional jumps are short jumps

Table 31 8051 Conditional Jump Instructions

Unconditional jump instructions


There are two unconditional jumps: LJMP (long jump) and SJMP (short jump).
LJMP is 3-byte instruction in which the first byte is the op-code, and the second and third bytes represent the 16-bit address of the target location. The 2-byte target address allows a jump to any memory loca-tion from 0000 to FFFFH.

Unconditional jump instructions


SJMP (short jump)
2-byte instruction, the first byte is the op-code and the second byte is the relative address of the target location. The relative address range of 00 FFH is divided into forward and backward jumps; that is, within -128 to +127 bytes of memory relative to the address of the current PC (program counter). If the jump is forward, the target address can be within a space of 127 bytes from the current PC. If the target address is backward, the target address can be within -128 bytes from the current PC.

Calculating the short jump address


Using the following list tile, verify the jump forward address calculation.

Part 5
CALL INSTRUCTIONS

CALL INSTRUCTIONS
CALL is used to call a subroutine. Subroutines are often used to perform tasks that need to be performed frequently. This makes a program more structured in addition to saving memory space. There are two instructions : LCALL (long call) and ACALL (absolute call). Deciding which one to use depends on the target address.

CALL INSTRUCTIONS
LCALL (long call)
3-byte instruction, the first byte is the op-code and the second and third bytes are used for the address of the target subroutine. LCALL can be used to call subroutines located anywhere within the 64K-byte address space of the 8051. To make sure that after execution of the called subroutine the 8051 knows where to come back to, the processor automatically saves on the stack the address of the instruction immediately below the LCALL. When a subroutine is called, control is transferred to that subroutine, and the processor saves the PC (program counter) on the stack and begins to fetch instructions from the new location. After finishing execution of the subroutine, the instruction RET (return) transfers control back to the caller. Every subroutine needs RET as the last instruction.

TIMING CALCULATIONS

TIME DELAY FOR VARIOUS 8051 CHIPS


Machine cycle for the 8051
The MCU takes a certain number of clock cycles to execute an instruction. These clock cycles are referred to as machine cycles. In the 8051 family, the length of the machine cycle depends on the frequency of the crystal oscillator. The frequency of the crystal connected to the 8051 family can vary from 4 MHz to 30 MHz. In the original 8051, one machine cycle lasts 12 oscillator periods. Therefore, to calculate the machine cycle for the 8051, we take 1/12 of the crystal frequency, then take its inverse.

8051 I/O PORT PROGRAMMING

WHAT ARE I/O PORTS?


I/O Ports are basically the interfaces which connect the 8051 uC to external devices After basic connection, that is, after setting up the hardware connection, I/O ports can read, that is, receive data from those devices and can also write, that is, send data to them Inputs can be read/received from ports and outputs can be written/sent to the I/O ports by writing suitable programs for the 8051 uC.

This is a very useful function because the 8051 uC can then be used for monitoring real world processes as we see in digital instruments where different parameters like Pressure, Temperature, Speed of Rotation, etc can be acquired and displayed

This is also very useful because microcontrollers have data processing capability (though limited) which can be used for processing these signals through programs (which we write), and based on the result perform some control function by sending data to the device through the output ports or pins of the microcontroller.

So for example, we can use the input port/pin of the 8051 uC to keep reading the temperature of an oven, and when the temperature exceeds a certain value, we can use the output port/pin of the 8051 uC to either turn-off the switch of the oven automatically or to activate a sound alarm (for manual intervention) and to once again turn it on when the temperature falls below a specified value or to activate a sound alarm.

ANALOGY OF PORTS
We have got sea ports, air ports, bus ports (what are called bus terminals) and rail ports (railway stations) in a city. These ports are used for connecting the city with the rest of the world for bringing people and cargo inside the city (Input Port) They are also used for sending people and cargo outside the city (Output Port) Generally we do not see separate physical ports in cities for Input and Output Functions Now this analogy pretty much applies for the 8051 uC as well

4 I/O Ports in the 8051 are like the 4 railway stations of a big city Individual Pins are like Platforms of the Railway Station You got 8 platforms (pins) per I/O port in 8051!

8051 Pin Diagram

8051 I/O PORT You have got 4 I/O ports in the 8051 uC. They are PROGRAMMING
named as P0, P1, P2, and P3. You have to always keep in mind that each of these 4 ports have 8 pins each. Individual pins of these ports are named as P0.1, P0.2, P0.3, and so on (Port 0 Platform No.1, Port 0 Platform No.2, and so on) When you RESET the 8051 uC then all the ports of the 8051 are configured as input ports, and are ready to read data, that is, take data inside, that is, all stations and all platforms of the stations are ready for receiving incoming trains!

8051 I/O PORT PROGRAMMING


And how do you reset the 8051 uC?
This is done by holding the RST pin (pin no. 9 in the 8051 pin diagram) at Logic 1 for 2 consecutive machine cycles. In practice, it means that you apply the voltage level corresponding to Logic 1 (+5V) to the RST pin of the 8051 uC for a very short time interval corresponding to 2 machine cycles of the 8051 uC.

8051 I/O PORT PROGRAMMING


When you write the first 0 to a port, then that port becomes an output port and can be used for writing data or sending data outside. For reconfiguring (phir se configuring ya dobara se configuring) the port (which you have made output port) as an input port, you have to move 1 to that port. For using any of these 4 uC ports for data input or output, you have to write programs in Assembly or C language.

Port 0
You can use this port as either an input port or an output port. Before using port 0 as an input or an output port, you have to connect each pin of port 0 to 10 Kilo ohm resistors as shown in the diagram on next slide. This is because the port P0 has no internal resistors. The other ports P1, P2, and P3 have internal or builtin resistors on the 8051 chip itself. So external resistors should not be connected to the pins of P1, P2, and P3 ports.

8051 I/O PROGRAMMING


Port 0

Port 0 with External Resistors

Port 0 as input
After connecting 10Kohm external resistors to all pins of port 0, in the manner shown earlier, in order to make port 0 an input port, the port must be programmed by writing 1 to all its bits.

Dual role of port 0


Port 0 is also designated as AD0 AD7, allowing it to be used for both address and data. When connecting an 8051/31 to an external memory, port 0 provides both address and data. The 8051 multiplexes address and data through port 0 to save pins.

8051 I/O PROGRAMMING


Port 1 It can be used as input or output. This port does not need any resistors since it already has resistors internally. Upon reset, port I is configured as an input port.

Port 1 as input
If port 1 has been configured as an output port, to make it an input port again, it must programmed as such by writing 1 to all its bits.

Port 1 as input
In the following code, port 1 is configured first as an input port by writing 1 s to it, then data is received from that port and saved in R7, R6, and R5.

DELAY SUBROUTINE
. . MOV R0, #30H . . ORG 300H DELAY: NOP AGAIN: DJNZ R0, AGAIN RET END

Port 2 Port 2 occupies a total of 8 pins (pins 21 through 28). It can be used as input or output. Port 2 does not need any external resistors since it already has external resistors internally. Upon reset, port 2 is configured as an input port.

Port 2 as input
To make port 2 an input, it must programmed as such by writing 1 to all its bits. In the following code, port 2 is configured first as an input port by writing is to it.

Dual role of port 2


In 8031-based systems, port 2 must be used along with P0 to provide the 16-bit address for external memory. Port 2 is also designated as A8 - A15, indicating its dual function. Since an 8051/31 is capable of accessing 64K bytes of external memory, it needs a path for the 16 bits of the address. P0 provides the lower 8 bits via AD0 - AD7 P2 provides bits A8 - A 15 of the address. When the 8051 /31 is connected to external memory, P2 is used for the upper 8 bits of the 16-bit address, and it cannot be used for I/O.

Port 3
Port 3 can be used as input or output. P3 does not need any external resistors. Port 3 is configured as an input port upon reset. Port 3 has the additional function of providing some extremely important signals such as interrupts, serial I/O, timer/counter and read/write control for external memory.

PROGRAMMING INDIVIDUAL I/O PINS BY BIT MANIPULATION


A powerful feature of 80511/0 ports is their capability to access individual bits of the port without altering the rest of the bits in that port. Of the four 8051 ports, we can access either the entire 8 bits or any single bit without altering the rest. "SETB X. Y" where X is the port number 0, 1, 2, or 3, and Y is the desired bit number from 0 to 7 for data bits DO to D7. "SETB P1.5" sets bit 5 of port 1 high.

The following code toggles bit P1.2 continuously.

Instructions for reading input ports


To make any bit of any 8051 port an input port, we must write 1 (logic high) to that bit. After we configure the port bits as input, we can use only certain instructions in order to get the external data present at the pins into the CPU.

Pin & Latch


Port Pins
Current state of port pin

Reading from Port: Data is read directly from port pins in case the port is configured as input. Writing to Port: Writes to an internal register (called latch reg) which is reflected to pin if port is configured as output.

Serial versus Parallel Data Transfer

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


serial communication uses single data line making it much cheaper enables two computers in different cities to communicate over the telephone byte of data must be converted to serial bits using a parallel-in-serialout register and transmitted over a single data line receiving end there must be a serial-in-parallel-out shift register if transferred on the telephone line, it must be converted to audio tones by modem for short distance the signal can be transferred using wire how PC keyboards transfer data to the motherboard

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


2 methods, asynchronous and synchronous synchronous method transfers a block of data (characters) at a time asynchronous method transfers a single byte at a time Uses special IC chips called UART (universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter) and USART (universal synchronous-asynchronous receivertransmitter) 8051 chip has a built-in UART

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION

Simplex, Half-, and Full-Duplex Transfers

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


Half- and full-duplex transmission if the data can be transmitted and received, it is a duplex transmission simplex transmissions the computer only sends data duplex transmissions can be half or full duplex depends on whether or not the data transfer can be simultaneous If one way at a time, it is half duplex If can go both ways at the same time, it is full duplex full duplex requires two wire conductors for the data lines (in addition to the signal ground)

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


Asynchronous serial communication and data framing
data coming in 0s and 1s to make sense of the data sender and receiver agree on a set of rules Protocol
how the data is packed how many bits/character when the data begins and ends

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


Start and stop bits
asynchronous method, each character is placed between start and stop bits called framing start bit is always one bit stop bit can be one or two bits start bit is always a 0 (low) stop bit(s) is 1 (high) LSB is sent out first

SECTION 10.1: BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION

Figure 3

Framing ASCII A (41H)

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


in modern PCs one stop bit is standard when transferring a text file of ASCII characters using 1 stop bit there is total of 10 bits for each character 8 bits for the ASCII code (1 parity bit), 1 bit each for the start and stop bits for each 8-bit character there are an extra 2 bits, which gives 20% overhead

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


Data transfer rate
rate of data transfer bps (bits per second) widely used terminology for bps is baud rate baud and bps rates are not necessarily equal baud rate is defined as the number of signal changes per second

BASICS OF SERIAL COMMUNICATION


RS232 standards
most widely used serial I/O interfacing standard input and output voltage levels are not TTL compatible 1 bit is represented by -3 to -25 V 0 bit is +3 to +25 V -3 to +3 is undefined to connect RS232 to a microcontroller system must use voltage converters such as MAX232 to convert the TTL logic levels to the RS232 voltage levels, and vice versa MAX232 IC chips are commonly referred to as line drivers

RxD and TxD pins in the 8051
8051 has two pins used for transferring and receiving data serially TxD and RxD are part of the port 3 group pin 11 (P3.1) is assigned to TxD pin 10 (P3.0) is designated as RxD these pins are TTL compatible require a line driver to make them RS232 compatible driver is the MAX232 chip

8051 CONNECTION TO RS232


MAX232
converts from RS232 voltage levels to TTL voltage levels uses a +5 V power source MAX232 has two sets of line drivers for transferring and receiving data line drivers used for TxD are called T1 and T2 line drivers for RxD are designated as R1 and R2 T1 and R1 are used together for TxD and RxD of the 8051 second set is left unused

8051 SERIAL PORT PROGRAMMING IN ASSEMBLY


Baud rate in the 8051
baud rate in the 8051 is programmable done with the help of Timer 1 relationship between the crystal frequency and the baud rate in the 8051 8051 divides the crystal frequency by 12 to get the machine cycle frequency XTAL = 11.0592 MHz, the machine cycle frequency is 921.6 kHz 8051's UART divides the machine cycle frequency of 921.6 kHz by 32 once more before it is used by Timer 1 to set the baud rate 921.6 kHz divided by 32 gives 28,800 Hz Timer 1 must be programmed in mode 2, that is 8-bit, auto-reload

SBUF (serial buffer) register
a byte of data to be transferred via the TxD line must be placed in the SBUF register SBUF holds the byte of data when it is received by the RxD line can be accessed like any other register
MOV SBUF,#'D' MOV SBUF,A MOV A,SBUF ;load SBUF=44H, ASCII for 'D ;copy accumulator into SBUF ;copy SBUF into accumulator

when a byte is written, it is framed with the start and stop bits and transferred serially via the TxD pin when the bits are received serially via RxD, it is deframe by eliminating the stop and start bits, making a byte out of the data received, and then placing it in the SBUF

8051 SERIAL PORT PROGRAMMING IN ASSEMBLY


TI (transmit interrupt)
when 8051 finishes the transfer of the 8-bit character, it raises the TI flag to indicate that it is ready to transfer another byte

RI (receive interrupt)
when the 8051 receives data serially via RxD, it places the byte in the SBUF register then raises the RI flag bit to indicate that a byte has been received and should be picked up before it is lost

Importance of the TI flag
check the TI flag bit, we know whether can transfer another byte TI flag bit is raised by the 8051 TI flag cleared by the programmer writing a byte into SBUF before the TI flag bit is raised, may lead to loss of a portion of the byte being transferred

Importance of the RI flag bit
1. it receives the start bit, next bit is the first bit of the character 2. when the last bit is received, a byte is formed and placed in SBUF 3. when stop bit is received, makes RI = 1 4. when RI=1, received byte is in the SBUF register, copy SBUF contents to a safe place 5. after the SBUF contents are copied the RI flag bit must be cleared to 0
