The 8051 architecture developed by Intel has proved to be the most popular and
enduring type of microcontroller, available from many manufacturers and widely
used for industrial applications and embedded systems as well as being a
versatile and economical option for design prototyping, educational use and
other project work.
In this book the authors introduce the fundamentals and capabilities of the
8051, then put them to use through practical exercises and project work. The
result is a highly practical learning experience that will help a wide range of
engineers and students to get through the steepest part of the learning curve
and become proficient and productive designing
