"i am a third year student ... studied 8086/8088" So by now you should understand the basics of microprocessors. With that understanding, your teacher is right: you should now be able to understand other processors by looking at their datasheets. You can get a free CD-ROM from Keil at: https://www.keil.com/demo/cdrom.asp It contains evaluation versions of all their tools, complete with full manuals, plus loads of datasheets, application notes, sample code and links to manufacturer's websites. The "Getting Started" guide to uVision takes you through the process of creating an application, with a couple of simple examples. uVision has a simulator, so you don't even need any hardware to get started! See also the "Other Forums", "Application Notes", and "File Download Area" links in the sidebar to this forum. http://www.8052.com has a tutorial on the 8052. Have you checked in your university library?
