Microcontroller 8051 Programming

This document discusses the microcontroller 8051 and its features. It describes how microcontrollers use less power-hungry CMOS technology and have power management modes like sleep and idle to reduce power consumption compared to microprocessors. It also outlines some of the 8051's key inputs like power, crystal for timing, and reset signal, as well as its internal architecture including data memory, special function registers, accumulator, stack pointer, port registers, and power management register.

MCS Family Characteristics
Power Management
Modern microcontrollers are designed with less power-
hungry Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor
(CMOS) technology.
Apart from that most microcontrollers offer power
management modes like, Sleep Mode or Idle Mode.
In these modes, microcontrollers consume less power than
at the time when they are fully functional.
Some microcontrollers (like AVR) allows to shut down
their unused sectors (like ADC or DAC) So that less power
could be consumed.
Schematic Inputs & Outputs,
External Features
Power is the most important input, without which the device would not
function at all.
External crystal input is necessary to generate the heartbeats of the
processor.
The third input signal, RESET, is necessary to initialize various features of the
processor to make a fresh start.
