 Its not an exaggeration if I say that ,today
there is no electronic gadget on the earth
which is designed without a Microcontroller.
Ex: communication devices, digital
entertainment, portable devices etc…
Not believable ??? See the next slide

So, A good designer should always
know what type of controller he/she
is using ,their architecture, advantages ,
disadvantages , ways to reduce
production costs and product reliability
etc….

Microprocessor
 CPU is stand-alone, RAM,
ROM, I/O, timer are separate
 designer can decide on the
amount of ROM, RAM and
I/O ports.
 expansive
 versatility
 general-purpose
Microcontroller
• CPU, RAM, ROM, I/O and
timer are all on a single chip
• fix amount of on-chip ROM,
RAM, I/O ports
• Highly bit addressable
• for applications in which cost,
power and space are critical
• single-purpose

 Port 1 is a dedicated I/O port from pin 1 to
pin 8.Upon reset it is configured as outport.
It is generally used for interfacing to
external device thus if you need to connect
to switches or LEDs, you could make use of
these 8 pins,but it doesn’t need any pull-up
resistors as it is having internally

When it is high,it allows the 8051 to receive dataWhen it is high,it allows the 8051 to receive data
on the RxD pin. So to receive and transfer dataon the RxD pin. So to receive and transfer data
REN must be set to 1.When REN=0,theREN must be set to 1.When REN=0,the
receiver is disabled. This is achieved as belowreceiver is disabled. This is achieved as below

 TI (Transmit interrupt) is the D1 bit of SCON register.TI (Transmit interrupt) is the D1 bit of SCON register.
When 8051 finishes the transfer of 8-bit character, itWhen 8051 finishes the transfer of 8-bit character, it
raises the TI flag to indicate that it is ready to transferraises the TI flag to indicate that it is ready to transfer
another byte. The TI bit is raised at the beginning ofanother byte. The TI bit is raised at the beginning of
the stop bit.the stop bit.
 RI (Receive interrupt) is the D0 bit of the SCONRI (Receive interrupt) is the D0 bit of the SCON
register. When the 8051 receives data serially ,via RxD,register. When the 8051 receives data serially ,via RxD,
it gets rid of the start and stop bits and places the byteit gets rid of the start and stop bits and places the byte
in the SBUF register.Then it raises the RI flag bit toin the SBUF register.Then it raises the RI flag bit to
indicate that a byte has been received and should beindicate that a byte has been received and should be
picked up before it is lost.RI is raised halfway throughpicked up before it is lost.RI is raised halfway through
the stop bit.the stop bit.

Interrupt Enable RegisterInterrupt Enable Register
 Upon reset all Interrupts are disabled & do
not respond to the Microcontroller
 These interrupts must be enabled by software
in order for the Microcontroller to respond to
them.
 This is done by an 8-bit register called
Interrupt Enable Register (IE).

 EA : Global enable/disable.
 --- : Undefined.
 ET2 : Enable Timer 2 interrupt.
 ES : Enable Serial port interrupt.
 EX1 :Enable External 1 interrupt.
 EX0 : Enable External 0 interrupt..
