We are planning to use the Intel 8051 in a new product we are developing, and are interested in pointers to C compilers for the 8051, along with your comments. Also, any comments and pointers to 8051 in-circuit emulators would be nice. (Does anyone build an 8051 emulator that runs on the Sun?) Note that these don't have to be public domain -- a commercial, supported product is just fine. Please email to me about this -- our newsfeed isn't reliable yet. Clayton E.

Just got a hold of the Franklin C compiler for the 8051 series of microcontrollers. It is turning into a brave new world at times. Anyone out there have used this beastie?? This thing allows you to do real bit busting on the bare metal. There is no OS between you and the hardware. (ie. on alloc or anything like that) This is both a blessing and a bane at times. After a few weeks of churning out new code here and there it's definately worth the cost (~$1000) and the code it pumps out is SMALL. My whole OS is gonna fit on one single 8K x 8 EPROM. If anyone else wants further details on it, please e-mail me here. -- ________ ______ (___ ___) (___ Stephen R.
