Programming for Traffic Control

I am a traffic Engineer working on 27C128Q programming software. I like to use the 89S52 or equivalent to replace this old Eprom and make the new hardware for our traffic control. Can I transfer the old software to the new one? How can I do this? If anyone can help me?

I like to know if there is any existing reliable traffic control software I can order or someone can help me to make the programme according to my specific requirements?

Please contact with me if anything can help.

Thanks,

Steve

  • Steve;
    Notice on the Home page of this website is a link to Consultants. Also, I have noticed on the NXP ARM website a similiar link to consultants by device types.
    Earlier you mentioned a 80C51 family device. I would suggest that you look at some of the newer ARM chips that have more internal memory at less cost than a 80C51 type.
    But still you can't beat the 80C51 family of devices for bit banking controllers.
    Look at the 'Traffic' example in the eval software for a quick idea of very simple traffic control.

  • Dear Al,

    Thank for your message and I did try very hard to find the link for traffic example but without luck.

    Can you send me some links related to this matter? I really interest to know more to study.

    I prepare to buy traffic controller programming software and make the PCB if it is available.

    Thank you.

    The 'traffic' example comes in several different examples. This link is for the 80C51 family and Keil's PK51 progamming package.

    You can download an evaluation package from this website. I'm not sure if the eval package will allow you to re-compile this size of program but it will be pre-compiled and operational to view in the tools simulator if you DO NOT re-compile.
    By no means is this a true traffic controller. It was written to demo the multitasking of the Keil's tools.
    Just go to the search box and enter traffic and select the tool set(device family). You will get several links including the User's Getting Starting Manual.
    I personally have no idea where you might purchase a ceritfied traffic program but a consultant would be able to point you in the right direction.
    Just one other point. Several FPGA CPLD vendors have chips that can incorporate small microcontrollers. If you cannot find what you need in price/ability, I'm sure that the FPGA vendors can advise you on their products.
