Ee337: Microcontrollers and Microprocessors: Rajbabu Velmurugan and Shankar Balachandran

This document provides an overview of the EE337: Microcontrollers and Microprocessors course. It discusses using Embedded C with the Keil C51 compiler for programming microcontrollers. It covers various keywords added by Keil C51 like _at_, sbit, sfr, interrupt, using. It also discusses data memory models like small, compact, large and use of pointers, functions and interrupts in embedded C.

EE337: MICROCONTROLLERS

AND MICROPROCESSORS

RAJBABU VELMURUGAN AND


SHANKAR BALACHANDRAN

Embedded C
Using C
 Becoming very common for programming
microcontrollers
 Different flavors possible with different tools
 Embedded C using Keil is very convenient and
useful
Keywords

Keil C51 compiler adds few more keywords to the scope C Language:
_at_ far sbit
alien idata sfr
bdata interrupt sfr16
bit large small
code pdata _task_
compact _priority_ using
data reentrant xdata
Data/idata
unsigned char data x;
//or
unsigned char idata y;

Decides whether to store in internal data memory


bdata
unsigned char bdata x;
//each bit of the variable x can be accessed as
follows
x ^ 1 = 1; //1st bit of variable x is set
x ^ 0 = 0; //0th bit of variable x is cleared
_at_
 unsigned char idata x _at_ 0x30;
 // variable x will be stored at location 0x30
 // in internal data memory
sbit
 sbit Port0_0 = 0x80;
 // Special bit with name Port0_0 is defined at
address 0x80

Defines a special bit from special function register


(SFR)
Sfr
 sfr Port1 = 0x90;
 // Special function register with name Port1
defined at addrress 0x90
sfr16
 sfr16 DPTR = 0x82;
 // 16-bit special function register starting at 0x82
 // DPL at 0x82, DPH at 0x83
using
void function () using 2
{
// code
}
// Funtion named "function" uses register bank 2 while
executing its code
Interrupt
 Tells the compiler that a function is an ISR
 32 interrupts are possible
Example
void External_Int0() interrupt 0
{
//code
}
Memory Models
 Small
 All variables in internal data memory.
 Compact
 Variables in one page, maximum 256 variables (limited
due to addressing scheme, memory accessed indirectly
using r0 and r1 registers);
 Large
 All variables in external ram. variables are accessed
using DPTR.
Usage
 //For Small Memory model
 #pragma small
 //For Compact memory model
 #pragma compact
 //For large memory model
 #pragma large
Pointers
 Can do all operations that C has
 Two types
 Generic– just like in C
 Memory specific
Memory Specific
 Can specify pointers to be of specific type
 char data *c;
 //Pointer to character stored in Data memory
 char xdata *c1;
 //Pointer to character stored in External Data Memory.
 char code *c2;
 //Pointer to character stored in Code memory
Functions
 [Return_type] Fucntion_name ( [Arguments] )
[Memory_model] [reentrant] [interrupt n] [using n]
 Return_type
 The type of value returned from the function. If return
type of a function is not specified, int is assumed by
default.
 Function_name
 Name of function
 Arguments
 Arguments passed to function
Other options for functions
 Example: int add_number (int a, int b) Large
 reentrant
 To indicate if the function is reentrant or recursive.
 interrupt
 Indicates that function is an interrupt service routine.
 using
 Specify register bank to be used during function
execution.
Example
void function_name () using 2
{
//function uses Bank 2
//function code
}
Default INterrupts
ISR Example
void isr_name (void) interrupt 2
{
// Interrupt routine code
}
Function parameters
 Can be passed using registers
Or
 Fixed memory locations
Return
 Always in registers
Note
 Use C for large programs
 Can also use C And assembly together
