Software Reset for microcontroller(8051)

[youstron]

Its very easy to reset using hardware by pin 9, but how to reset using software program?? Please help me...please give the example assembly code to reset

 

[srizbf]

use:
ljmp 0000h

 

[js]

depends on 8051 variant ......
for example:

 

[youstron]

In the software reset,if we give ljmp 00h ,then all the registers and flags are also comes to its default values??? (example for registers 00)

 

[Arch Zone]

In the software reset,if we give ljmp 00h ,then all the registers and flags are also comes to its default values??? (example for registers 00)

- Ljmp 0000h only makes program jump to first address but there's no SFRs affected like the real Power On Reset.
- Register 0 is not SFR, but part of RAM. there's no default value of these. After power on reset, that's values are unknown.

In 8051 there is no software RESET.
LJMP #0 sets only the PC, nothing else ..
If you want to zero all registers, you have to do it by zeroing them one-by-one.
