Doubt if that will be answered!

Frankly the subject combination is a non starter in my opinion, atleast till I know the specific end application. Matlab solutions are math intensive ( mostly?) and having it done in a native 8 bit controller like the MCS51, with "C", is not for the weak at heart.

Maybe there is a chance that you can have it done with a ARM processor.

And if you want to learn C for 8 bit controllers, search this fourm - you will need atleast two days to sift through the postings on them. Plenty.

PS: These are my opinions based on general information. Specific realities could be different based on application.
