#98073 - who cares
Responding to: ???'s previous message
It does state in the CIP-51 Micro section that it is fully compatible with MCS-51 instruction set.
who cares, if most SFRs have a different name, XTAL2 is the input etc.

Examples:
You start coding, get compile errors, do a search in the datasheet and find out that the f3xx does not have the RCAP2H/L registers. Ok, they are not obligatory, so you spend a while coding around using them. Now you have "clumsy" code that does not use these and then you suddenly spot they are there, just "renamed" TMR2RLH/L and realize that once more with this deviate, I refuse to call it a derivative, you got led up the garden path. Later you stumble across that the clock input is XTAL2 and horray, at least that you got fixed before commiting. After several such "episodes' you choose another chip.

Thius if you want to keep your sanity, stay away from SILabs F3xx
