Suggest me a good AT microcontroller for beginners and tools for it

[itsmega]

Hello,


I am planning to buy AT89c51 Microcontroller and do some programming. Since I am new to this programming, I need your valuble suggestion which controller is good to start with. Kindly suggest me some complete programmers kit and where would I find it. I have good experience in C and some assembly language.

Regards
Megan

Re: AT89c51 ???

Go for the "S" series .. 89S51, 89S52, 89S53 ..
Codes are the same, but programmers are simpler, also "in application" ..
Here are examples:

Megan,

I agree with IanP, the "S" series is much more convinient 4 programming and they have all the features as the "C"s. I have recentlly switched to the "S" series and its very good.

The programmer is very easy 2 design as well.

Re: AT89c51 ???

You don't need to buy anything ..

Tools for the 8051-family are readily available on the web ..

For example, take a look at:
http://plit.de/asem-51/
http://www.pjrc.com/tech/8051/
and GOOGLE for more ..

Keil software simulate all the parts of 8051 like interupts ,pins mode,timers and ...
Find it and use it for tracing your Algorithms.

Re: AT89c51 ???

u must use "proteus" from labcenter electronics bcoz it has many builtin features..i.e compilers and simulator...:idea:

 

[aupa]

Re: AT89c51 ???

i recommend you keil (uvision) to generate software and compile and proteus to simulate the hardware

Re: AT89c51 ???

hi

I think it is better to have a look of some useful book and clear your concept about atmel controller, and the best way is to study books, i recommend you mcanzi and mazidi's one which is the best one also you can explore www.8052.com and better to use proteus.
