Microcontroller Program Optimization Process!

01 Program Structure Optimization 1. Program Writing Structure Although the writing format does not affect the quality of the generated code, certain writing rules should still be followed during actual programming. A clearly written program is beneficial for future maintenance. When writing programs, especially for statements like While, for, do…while, if…else, switch…case, and their nested … Read more

Why Use C Language for Microcontrollers?

Why Use C Language for Microcontrollers?

Porting C to the MCU (commonly known as microcontroller) 8051 began in the late 1980s. Objectively speaking, there are many challenges in porting C to the 8051 MCU. For example: · The 8051’s non-Von Neumann architecture (separate program and data memory spaces), along with additional bit-addressable memory space on the chip;  · The on-chip data and … Read more
