2.0 out of 5 stars OK for beginers
This book contains the basic information on 8051 but is not very well written and largely is just summary, without added explanation, of data sheets. A bit specific to phillips 8051 variants also.
Somewhat too keen on TLA's ( three letter acronym's) I personally think saying CLM instead of click is just silly.
Appendices only have title at start so are...

2.0 out of 5 stars Errors undermine a potentially good book, February 7, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 8051 Microcontrollers: An Applications Based Introduction (Paperback)
After having used the first chapter of this book in my CPE 301 class, I have found a number of errors. For instance, the book says that the 8051 command MUL multiplies 2 bytes and stores the 16 bit product across the two registers. Unfortunately, the order that the bits are stored is reversed from what the book says. This is just one example of the errors that I have found with the book. I do not look forward to having to continue to use it in my class.
