C51: USING THE PHILIPS 87C751

Information in this article applies to:

C51 Version 5

QUESTION

I need to use a Philips 87C751 chip and I'm working with µVision V1.13. How do I configure the compiler and linker in µVision? Is there a header file for the 87C751?

ANSWER

Select Options -> C51 Compiler -> Code Size Limits: 2KB or less
Insert the library C:\C51\LIB\80C751.LIB into your project.
Set under Options -> BL51 Linker -> Linking - Ignore default Libraries.

That's the complete setup for the 751 derivative.

If you use µVision Version 2 or later, these settings are done automatically when you select the chip you use from the Device Database.
