The 8052 was an enhanced version of the original 8051 that featured 256 bytes of internal RAM instead of 128 bytes, 8 KB of ROM instead of 4 KB, and a third 16-bit timer. Most modern 8051-compatible microcontrollers include these features. The 8032 had these same features as the 8052 except it lacked internal ROM program memory.
The Intel 8253 PIT was the original timing device used on IBM PC compatibles.It used a 1.193182 MHz clock signal (one third of the color burst frequency used by NTSC, one twelfth of the system clock crystal oscillator, [1] therefore one quarter of the 4.77 MHz CPU clock) and contains three timers.
MCU 8051 IDE is a free software integrated development environment for microcontrollers based on the 8051. MCU 8051 IDE has a built-in simulator not only for the MCU itself, but also LCD displays and simple LED outputs as well as button inputs.
Some software watchdog timers are implemented as standard software modules. Examples of these include "Softdog", a virtual device driver which emulates an electronic WDT and conforms to the Linux watchdog API, [ 11 ] and MathWorks ' Software Watchdog Timer, a retriggerable one-shot timer which can be instantiated by dragging its GUI ...
A special function register (SFR) is a register within a microcontroller that controls or monitors various aspects of the microcontroller's function. Depending on the processor architecture, this can include, but is not limited to: I/O and peripheral control (such as serial ports or general-purpose IOs) timers; stack pointer
A prescaler is an electronic counting circuit used to reduce a high frequency electrical signal to a lower frequency by integer division.The prescaler takes the basic timer clock frequency (which may be the CPU clock frequency or may be some higher or lower frequency) and divides it by some value before feeding it to the timer, according to how the prescaler register(s) are configured.
In computing, a programmable interrupt controller (PIC) is an integrated circuit that helps a microprocessor (or CPU) handle interrupt requests (IRQs) coming from multiple different sources (like external I/O devices) which may occur simultaneously. [1]
Timers column - more recent families have wider timers and may allow chaining two 16-bit timers to do 32-bit capture. RTT is a 16-bit Real Time Timer that is driven by a 32.768KHz clock, though Microchip calls it RTC for Real Time Counter (easily confused to mean Real Time Clock).
