Troubles with memory paging with 8051

Hi everybody !!!

I've got a problem with my Nordic nRF24E1. It's a powerful transceiver with an integrated 8051 microcontroller (Dallas DS80C320).
It has only 4KBytes of internal program memory. The trouble is that I've a program of 16KBytes located in an external EEPROM of 32Kbytes.I think that my sole solution is memory paging.
But I don't know how to switch between pages and I don't know when I must do it.

Does anyone know techniques for memory paging with 8051 ?
If you have another solution than memory paging, I'm very interested...
Thanks

Regards

  • Banking would be the correct term.
    Look at the samples for Banking.
    You Interupts and paging code must be in the common bank. You have to figure out wich code goes into common. Put all the functions for a bank into 1 module. Repeat for all banks. Keil gives you L51_BANK.a51. Put your Serial EEProm code there.

    Sounds like work have fun.
