 		 #133543 - I have made my decision
Responding to: ???'s previous message
At first I thought about using boolean logic so that I can minimize the hardware required to create my ROM. But then again, I think I will have alot more hardware.

I have decided to go with decoders, NAND gates, and AND gates.

here is my recent code:


main:
jb P3.2,main
mov A,P1
movx @DPTR,A
inc dptr
nwait:
jnb P3.2,nwait
ljmp main


This one will take some 4-input nand gates, and some 8-input nand gates, and maybe a couple 2-input AND gates.

I will use these instead of diodes as someone mentioned, because there are fewer holes to drill and it is more compact.

and I have one question. With my code above, would DPTR be always set to zero if the 8051 (any 8051) is actually reset (where the RESET pin is high for > 24 clock cycles)?

I am depending on DPTR to be zero at the start, but I do not want to add "mov DPTR,0", or I might need more logic gates.
