1. Includes the fun. Of µP & in addition


1. Functional blocks are
to Timer, Parallel &
ALU, Reg.,T&C unit
Serial ports, int. RAM & EPROM /
2. There is a rapid movement of data EEPROM

3. Few instruction used for this

purpose
4. Used in the form of Byte/data & have
one /two types of bit handling 4. Large no. of bit manipulation

instructions.

5. Cheap – Designing app for specific

EMBEDDED SYSTEM AND
THEIR PRODUCTS

Embedded System

The application and processor are combined into a single


system

Embedded products
Processor inside the micro controller performs only one task.

Eg: Printer- Getting data from i/p device through the processor
and printing it.

TYPES OF 8-BIT MICROCONTROLLER

 Free scale 6811


 Intel’s 8051
 Zilog’s Z8
 PIC 16X
Each one has unique instruction set &
Register set

OVERVIEW OF THE 8051
FAMILY

11
MICROCONTROLLER 8031
 Is a ROM less 8051 microcontroller

 It does not have internal ROM


If we add external ROM (as large as 64 KB) to this

8031 MC (for programming code) use 2 I/O ports

out of 4 I/O ports


 To avoid this we use PPI 8255
(I/O port chip, 40 pin IC, 3 ports(A,B,C): 8-bit width)
