Pin Diagram of 8051 Microcontroller

The 8051 microcontroller is a versatile and widely used device, featuring a 40-pin dual
in-line package. Each pin is assigned specific functions, as described below:

1. VCC (Pin 40)


Provides the power supply to the microcontroller, typically +5V.

2. GND (Pin 20)


Ground reference pin, connected to 0V.

3. Port 0 (Pins 32–39)


An 8-bit bidirectional I/O port that can also serve as the low-order address/data bus when
interfacing with external memory. External pull-up resistors are required for Port 0.

4. Port 1 (Pins 1–8)


A dedicated 8-bit I/O port used for general-purpose data transfer. Pull-up resistors are
internally provided.

5. Port 2 (Pins 21–28)


An 8-bit bidirectional I/O port. When interfacing with external memory, it functions as
the higher-order address bus.

6. Port 3 (Pins 10–17)


A multifunctional 8-bit I/O port with special alternate functions, such as:
- P3.0: RXD (Serial data input)
- P3.1: TXD (Serial data output)
- P3.2: INT0 (External interrupt 0)
- P3.3: INT1 (External interrupt 1)
- P3.4: T0 (Timer 0 input)
- P3.5: T1 (Timer 1 input)
- P3.6: WR (Write signal for external memory)
- P3.7: RD (Read signal for external memory)

7. ALE (Pin 30)


Address Latch Enable. It is used to demultiplex the address and data bus when external
memory is used.

8. PSEN (Pin 29)


Program Store Enable. It is an active-low signal used to read data from external program
memory.
9. EA (Pin 31)
External Access. Determines the memory type used for program storage:
- EA = 1: Internal program memory
- EA = 0: External program memory

10. XTAL1 and XTAL2 (Pins 19 and 18)


These pins are connected to an external crystal oscillator to provide the clock source for
the microcontroller.

11. RST (Pin 9)


Reset. A high pulse on this pin resets the microcontroller, clearing registers and restarting
program execution.
