MC 1

This document discusses special function registers (SFRs) in 8051 microcontrollers. SFRs are on-chip registers located from 80H to FFH that are used to control I/O ports, timers, interrupts and other microcontroller functions. Common SFRs include ACC, B, PSW, SP, DPTR, TMOD, TCON and SCON. The 8051 is an efficient microcontroller with separate memory, 4KB ROM, 128B RAM, 4 I/O ports and other features.
