Beginner in microcontroller and asembly language.

[suri_sony2002]

Hi,
I wanted to learn how to work with microcontrollers and to learn assembly level language. So could somebody guide me form the beginning, since iam new to this.
And in future I must try to write a program myself.
Thank you

Hi,

One of the most used microcontroller is the 8051. If you search on "8051" in the EDA Ebooks Upload/Dowload forum you will find a couple of books to start with.

i guess much better start with microchip pic16f84a that is very easy to learn than many resource on the net

Hi

Apart from the resources on edaboard, check out www.8052.com. It has very good tutorials, code samples and very active forum.
Use a good book (one widely used is 8051 by Kenneth Ayala) for studying architecture. Use SDCC / keil (demo version) compiler for writing small programs and check it using simulators. Once you are done with all this, you can use a development kit to try out your programs.

All the best,
KL

Hi suri_sony2002,
I think you have to make a poll asking about which point you can begin from because you won't find an only one opinion
just like programming; a person who wants to learn programming is confused from the large number of programming languages found nowadays.

My word to you: Try to begin with any chip that has a lot of resources,
don't be angry if your choice was wrong, just make a feedback and learn yourself.

 

[muruga86]

start with a simulator like UMPS

Here you are a tutorial for the PIC16F84 and how to write your first program in assembly.

It's great.

I found that learning is best done by doing. I could never learn anything just by reading.
If you can think of a project that can use a microcontroller, do it. It can be a remote control receiver, a programmable timer, an LED flasher, anything.

Then try to find a development system to actually implement your project and see it working. From this point of view, perhaps the PIC16F84 is the most easily available. Being a FLASH device, it is easy to reprogram, thus allowing you to make modifications to your program and even experiment with new projects quickly.
Plus, the software is free from Microchip.

In my time, I built my own 8052 development system, using a bootloader residing in an EPROM and an SRAM to download and run the actual program. Very awkward, but it worked and helped me learn.

can any body help me in a basic circuit using AT89C51 microcontroller for multisequence flashing led display

Well i myself am a beginner in microcontroller and we are starting with the 8051 microcontroller as it is the most basic and most of the universities start with the 8051. If you can have the book
The 8051 Microcontroller
by
l. Scott Mackenzie
It will get you started with it.

It all depends on which microcontroller u think to you.so first decide the microcontroller eg MSP430 and then u culd get a free simulator from then corporate wesite along with example projects.

www.winpicprog.co.uk is down for me.Are there any mirror sites?

 

[suri_sony2002]

Hi everbody,
could somebody suggest me a good simulator for PIC16F84?
THX

 

[hill]

How about MPLAB SIM?

 

[Jack// ani]

Proteus Lite can also simulate 16f84a well.

Hi,

Anyone can help me to open this file i cannot open. If can send to mail or pm me.....

Thanks
