Microcontroller Keil IDE

The Keil IDE is a software suite that allows developers to write and test C code for 8051 microcontrollers in a virtual environment. It provides a device database to select a target microcontroller, sets compiler and linker options, and includes example programs. The simulation window allows viewing the microcontroller resources and interaction with peripherals in real time, helping to debug programs before deployment.

Keil IDE

• The Keil IDE is a user-friendly software suite to develop your‘C’


code and test the same in a virtual 8051 environment. The main
feature of the Keil is that it allows C programmers to adapt to the
8051 environment quickly with little learning curve.

• It offers the designer a device database of MCS-51 family from


which the target device of interest can be chosen. The µVision IDE
sets the compiler, assembler, linker, and memory options for the
designer.

• The suite comes with numerous example programs to assist the


designer to start his project.
• With the virtual environment, the available on-chip resources of the
microcontroller chosen can be seen working on the PC screen.
• The simulation window facilitates very realistic simulation of both
CPU and embedded peripherals.
• The graphical window shows the state and configuration of the
embedded peripherals and displays the interaction of the
microcontrollers with external peripherals.
• Although the simulation exercise consumes time, it helps to save
the bugs and project failure in the long run.
Step 1: Interfaces Offered by Keil IDE
Step 2: Opening a New Project
Step 3: Selecting a Device for the
Target
Step 4: Copying Startup Code to Your
Project
Step 5: Adding Your Program Source
Code
Step 6: Configuring and Building the
Target
• As per the on-line Keil IDE manual C51 currently
supports the following memory configurations:

• ROM: currently the largest single object file that can be


produced is 64 K, although up to 1MB can be supported with
the BANKED model described below.
• All compiler output to be directed to EPROM/ROM,
constants,look-up tables, etc., should be declared as “code”.

• BANKED: Code can occupy up to 1 MB by using either CPU


port pins or memory-mapped latches to page memory above
0×FFFF. Within each 64 KB memory block a COMMON area
must be set aside for C library code. Inter-bank function calls
are possible.
RAM: There are three memory models, SMALL, COMPACT, and LARGE
Step 7: Compile Your Program by
Pressing F7
Step 8: Working in Simulated Mode
Step 8: Working in Simulated Mode

• Once the program is successfully compiled, you can verify its


functionality in the simulated mode by activating the debug window.
• For this press CTRL + F5 or go to the menu option “Debug” and
select “Start and Stop Debug Section”.
• Press F11 for single stepping or F5 for execution in one go.
• Go to the menu item “Peripheral” and select the appropriate
peripherals to view the changes as the program starts executing.
• Terminating the debug session is equally important. Click on “stop
running” or ESC key to halt the program execution.
Step 9: Actual Dumping of the Code
in Microcontroller’s On-chip Memory
• create HEX file.
