This tutorial is specially tailored to electronics and robotics
hobbyists that have already realized some simple electronics projects
and want to go a step further and start using microcontrollers
in their projects, more precisely the 89S52 microcontroller, which
is a famous member of the 8051 family of microcontroller. It is
straight forward, and relies on the ANSI C programming language.
The chosen 89S52 microcontroller is In System
Programmable using a simple and easy to build ISP
programmer.

 Part
1: Introduction to 8051 microcontrollers
This first part introduce the main aspects and characteristics
of the 89S52, providing to the absolute beginners a base
of knowledge, which will help them to understand more advanced
issues in the next part of the tutorial. |

Part
2: C programming for 89S52 using KEIL IDE
Even if you're not very familiar with the C language,
this tutorial will introduce all the basic programming
techniques that will be used along this tutorial. It will
also show you how to use the KEIL IDE to develop test
and debug your projects.

Part 3: Basic Input/Output
operations
In this third part of the 89s52 tutorial, we are going
to study the basic structure and configuration of I/O
ports. Then we are going to apply this theory on simple
experimental projects, using a LED and switch, to experiment
with the different I/O features of the microcontroller.

Part 4:
Interrupts, timers and counters
Most microcontrollers come with a set of 'ADD-ONs' called
peripherals, to enhance its functioning and to give the
programmer more options. This last part of the tutorial
shows you how to configure and use some of the main peripheral
features of 8051 microcontrollers. |
