8051 Device Support
The 8051 Family is one of the fastest growing Microcontroller Architectures. More than 500 device variants from various silicon vendors are available today. New extended 8051 devices, like the Philips 80C51MX architecture, are dedicated for large applications with several megabytes of code and data space.
For optimum support of these different 8051 variants, Keil provides several development tools that are listed in the table below. A new output file format (OMF2) allows direct support of up to 16MB code and data space. The CX51 Compiler is a variant of the C51 compiler that is designed for the new Philips 80C51MX architecture.
