Hi,
We are working on a new 8051 project; building the parts with discreate componants (like transisters, capacitors and resisters).
We want to be able to make the code size after compile to around 100K +
We are using External Uart, RTC, Latch & Logic's EP-ROM, SRam. Watchdog IC. etc.
Will Keil 8051 support the new core? and will it do all the link for the extra mamary?
Please help me to selecting the bits if you can.
thanks for your suggestions.
I must be tired today. I like my original estimate of 8051 transistor count (from the other thread) better than the one I wrote today where I seem to have managed to add an extra zero. But it would still be a quite big PCB when all transistors, traces, capacitors, resistors, ... has been placed.
The normal way to implement a processors is by use of programmable logic, since the programmable logic would contain transistors of similar size as a real processor. That makes a huge impact on the physical size and the current consumption.
