 		 #129061 - So it's a hardware fault
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Priyanka Gupta said:
I have tested my code in simulator, it gives the right output in the simulator

So it is a hardware fault!

Most likely, as already suggested, your least significant address bit is not working properly.
Could be
The 8051's A0 output;
The address latch's A0 input;
The address latch's A0 output;
The RAM chip's A0 input;
or any of the wiring in between!

Possibly even a combination of the above.

You could check by having two integer arrays:
Save This Code
unsigned int lo_bytes[] = { 0x0055, 0x00AA, 0x00FF };
unsigned int hi_bytes[] = { 0x5500, 0xAA00, 0xFF00 };
and see which one works properly...

                  Tested?!            01/01/70 00:00      
            it's the HW then            01/01/70 00:00      
         Yes, it looks like that.            01/01/70 00:00      
            Oh no it doesn't!            01/01/70 00:00      
               first of all, let me be clear ...            01/01/70 00:00      
                  not just stuck-at            01/01/70 00:00
