Synopsis

This is a book for people who develop embedded microcontroller applications. It introduces them to the 8051 family of device--the most popular 8-bit devices on the market--and goes on to show how to use it. A specific 8051 microcontroller board is described (and is available) which can be used for many of the examples. The book assumes the reader understands elementary programming ideas.

From the Author

Only Book emphasizing C
This edition is somewhat different from the first one (Programming for Multitasking) in that it puts more emphasis on hardware and assembly language. The C portion is virtually unchanged but the PL/M examples have been dropped. This book also introduces the use of a real-time clock for scheduling and includes Keil's demo compiler on CDROM. A second volume is expected out in early 1999 that focusses on hardware to attach to the microcontroller, algorithms, and the primciples of real-time operating systems/kernels.
