The Power of Intellectual Property

8051

Simplicity, high efficiency and good performance - these three features make the 8051 microcontrollers still very popular. Using everywhere 32-bit, heavy RISC processor is pointless, when 8-bit CPU can do the tasks more economically and eco-friendly, due to much lower power and ASIC area consumption.

Digital Core Design has complete portfolio of 8051 processors, consisting of: very small and effective DT8051 family, DP8051 most popular high performance family and nowadays, the most powerful DQ80251 architecture, which is 56 times faster than 80C51 and has 50% more efficient code space utilization, comparing to classic 8051. Each family is provided with DoCD JTAG/TTAG real-time non-intrusive debugging system.
