 		 #142921 - I see two points
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Stick the two burden caps (caps of oscillator) with their ground pins directly to the ground pin of micro. Don't use the common ground rail for these connections!

Also, connect a 100nF capacitor directly with shortest leads from Vcc pin to GND pin of micro, even if it looks strange. Take care, every cm counts! Your power supply decoupling scheme of micro will not work, because the connections a waaayyyy too long. Remember, that using a solid ground plane will tremendeously reduce the complex impedances!

Have a look at this demonstration layout:

http://www.8052.com/forum/read.phtml?id=62391

It shows, how to use a solid ground plane, how to put the decoupling caps right on the board and how to put the burden caps close to the ground pin of micro.

      A picture may be useful            01/01/70 00:00

            Makes sense            01/01/70 00:00      
            breadboards are highly unsuited for ANYTHING!            01/01/70 00:00      
               Not at all!            01/01/70 00:00      
                  If you look at the pictures you can see why.            01/01/70 00:00      
                     Yes, it doesn\'t look properly, but...            01/01/70 00:00      
                        It's too risky!            01/01/70 00:00      
                           What is the purpose of your posts??            01/01/70 00:00

                  Sadly, it's a trade name            01/01/70 00:00

      wow            01/01/70 00:00      
      use the unbuffered parts            01/01/70 00:00      
         It works fine with S, LS, HC, AC, HCT, ACT, etc            01/01/70 00:00

               I've had pretty good results ...            01/01/70 00:00      
   Many thanks, I'll try some of your tips...            01/01/70 00:00

         Hi again, sorry            01/01/70 00:00      
            Even with no breadboard            01/01/70 00:00      
               What has the programmer to do with the oscillator?            01/01/70 00:00      
      The chip is fine            01/01/70 00:00      
         What will that tell you about the oscillator?            01/01/70 00:00      
            It is time to tell the manufacturer, that...            01/01/70 00:00      
               oscillator of 2051?            01/01/70 00:00      
                  Sorry, maybe I was too harsh            01/01/70 00:00
