PS: in my opinion, if you use code bamking on a '51, you have chosen the wrong processor.


I would disagree. I'd say that if you use code banking you may have chosen the wrong processor. For that matter, if you do constant 32-bit math or floating point you may have used the wrong processor. If we use hard and fast rules I'd say we could judge the '51 to be the wrong processor in most cases.

The point being that I don't believe a single aspect of a design can determine the right processor. It's a combination of factors that have to be considered as a whole and weighing their relative importance.

Current 8052's are more powerful than other processors from 20 years ago that had full operating systems. Just because the 8052 isn't typically used for those kinds of applications doesn't mean that using in such cases is the wrong choice.
