i dont understand yet this stuff of RTOS
any explanation please?
Hi jeanni,
RTOS stands for Real Time OS, you can checkout my other post earlier for a good introduction to RTOS.
An RTOS is pretty cool and goes well on a 80C52.
For more in-depth look, I highly recommmend a book. You still can find one on amazon.
I got an RTOS for 8051; it is better than Keil RTX51-FULL. Get a free one and you get sources.

What is wrong with normal English? Too easy to read?
An 8051 is not comfortable with an OS.
Most applications written for 8051 chips do not need any OS, but can be implemented by splitting the functionality between interrupt handlers and a main loop.
look, I don't want to offend anybody here, but if this is the level of competence of future embedded software engineers...or as I once posted:
we are breading a generation of googlers, not thinkers. where are the next Voltaire, Einstein, Plank...with this guy (the original poster), we are doomed!
"we are breading a generation of googlers, not thinkers. where are the next Voltaire, Einstein, Plank...with this guy (the original poster), we are doomed!"
After a few posts, I'm put in the same category as Voltaire and Einstein :)
Oh ... Sorry ... You probably mean the other 'Plank' :(
Arthur, you're slipping! last time you replied within 2 minutes :-)
"For more in-depth look, I highly recommmend a book. You still can find one on amazon."
Any particular book? Programming for non-programmers maybe?
Nice to see that the Amazon management keep their stock at a good level.
He probably had to wait until Google had indexed this page, so he know that his name was mentioned :p
An RTOS is pretty cool and goes well on a 80C52. Obviously a RTOS can be implemented on any CPU, but "goes well on a 80C52" ???.
I can definitely see the possibility of using a '51 for "familiarizing with RTOS" and such, and there may, indeed, be cases where wrestling a RTOS into an totally unsuited architecture is a 'solution'.
