#149484 - 8052 PIC
Responding to: ???'s previous message

Hello to all!


First question:
I have an Intel's P80C52 PIC, from 1980.


No you don't ! A PIC is specific chip manufactured by Arizona Microchip. It is very popular, but not in this forum which is dedicated to the 8052 architecture.

That is the critical point ARCHITECTURE. The PIC has one architecture, the 8052 series another, and the ARM yet another. All of them have their own special interest groups.

To use an old P8052C, you would need to add an external latch, and external memory. These days, for less than 5 Euro, you can buy an 8052 DERIVATIVE with onboard EPROM and enough RAM to work for many applications.

Start there, throw away the dinosaur.
