I ve been doing a lots of my research for the best procesor to do large sums. is the arm betta fior it? can the x51 do any thing more than 7 bit? you tell me the answers.
The largest numbers the 8051 can accumulate will depend on how much RAM your specific 8051 will have - internally or externally.
Allowing 1kB for a number, you would be able to handle 2^8192 or 10^2466.
Now, exactly why do you wonder which processor that is best suited for handling large sums?
I dont think you got the right answer. the x51 is 8 bit but one is for the positive and one is for the negitive. so only 7 bits is small. 1000 is to large to fit 7 bit. Erik said arm can hold large numbers and can do larger sums.
Erik said arm can hold large numbers and can do larger sums that, of course is true; however ANY processor can do that, the only difference is how long it takes to calculate them.
