software reset 8051

Hey every one I want to know that is there any way to reset the microcontroller (AT89C52) by using command in assembly or C without using the reset pin 9.

No

Change to AT89s52. They have WDT which can reset your MCU by software.

Although in the original 8051's core there is no such a command, you can create one by yourself ..
Just do what the processor does on power-on ..
The internal reset algorithm writes 0s to all the SFRs except the port latches, the Stack Pointer and the SBUF ..
Then the port latches are initialized to FFh and the Stack Pointer to 07h ..

So, create section of code and call it RESET, include all of the above and the best place to put it is right at the beginning of the code ..
Something like this:

START:

RESET: ..

Main_Loop: .. da da da ..
..
..

you could have an external circuit that would reset the device using a pin on the 89C52, or in software just jump to address 0 in your code. Whatever reg's you want reset, do this @ reset addr 0.

i think you can jmp to the orgin wehen ever you want to reset you code r just use an external circuit connected to your reset pin and control that circuit from any one of the pin i think it might become complex
