Introducing the AT89S52-gLCD-STK1 Development Board AT89S52-gLCD-STK1 is a development board designed for building a digital temperature and humidity data-logging meter. At the same time, it can be used as a general 8051 development board with popular peripheral components including a real-time-clock, serial EEPROM, 128x64 dot-matrix graphical LCD, Sensirion SHT10 sensor, 5-way navigator joystick as well as external ROM/RAM extension port. Application (concept): Embedded-system enthusiasts may use the board to store temperature, relative humidity (RH), and dew-point data on a 256kbit eeprom. Each data is accompanied with an optional time-stamp. It is possible to design a fancy menu with icons, setup screens, min-max data display, or even a help menu for PC connection. User interaction is achieved by the 5-way navigator joystick as found on some mobile phones. If system remains idle for over 2 minutes, LCD backlight will be turned off automatically. For more than 5 minutes idle time, LCD will be turned off with the mcu put in sleep mode. Upon a single key-press on the navigator joystick, the system wakes up with a short ring-tone music generated by a piezo sounder, and the current temperaturehumidity printed on the LCD. Data stored on EEPROM can be exported to a PC for data analysis.

Software and Hardware Installation Software Keil C is a professional, industry standard compiler. We will use 2K limited edition of Keil C. For those who would like to get further information on 8051 mcu, C programming skill, or Keil C project settings, please refer to the following recommended references:

Microcontroller Projects in C for the 8051 by Dogan Ibrahim Embedded C by Michael J. Pont

For assembly language learners, The 8051 microcontroller and embedded systems, written by Muhammad Ali Mazidi, Janice Gillispie Mazidi. Embedded System Building Blocks, Complete and Ready-to-use Modules in C, 2nd edition by Jean J. Labrosse. Though it is not a direct 8051 tutorial, it is an excellent embedded C programming reference.

Keil C and Vision2 IDE From the companion CD (-OR- www.TechToys.com.hkAT89S52-gLCD-STK1 kit), inside KEIL C51 DEMO folder, search for cd:\KEIL C51 DEMO\SETUP\Setup.exe. Double click to install.

Figure 3 Select Eval Version to install 2K limit Keil C51 compiler with Vision2 IDE.

Figure 4 Restriction of this 2K Eval version is shown as below:

PK51/C51 Compiler - RESTRICTIONS IN THE EVAL VERSION 1. The 8051 compiler, assembler, linker, and debugger are limited to 2 Kbytes of object code but source code can be any size. Programs generating more than 2 Kbytes of object code will not compile, assemble, or link. 2. The debugger supports 2 Kbyte files or smaller. 3. The startup code generated includes LJMPs and code generated cannot be used in single-chip devices supporting less than 2K of program space (for example, Philips 750/751/752). 4. Programs begin at offset 0x0800 and code generated with the evaluation software cannot be programmed into single-chip devices. 5. No hardware support is available for multiple DPTR registers. 6. No support is available for user libraries or floating point arithmetic. 7. The following Code Banking Linker, Library Manager and RTX-51 Tiny Real-Time Operating System, which are present in the PK51 Full Version, are not included in the PK51/C51 Eval Version. 8. It is not possible to generate assembler source files or use in-line assembler features.

Launch from the icon on Desktop. shown in Figure 6. Figure 5

The user interface of Vision is

Figure 6 It is very easy to get confused with the terms of the software package. Vision2 is the integrated development environment (IDE), basically the user interface you see after double click Keil uVision2 icon. C51 is the compiler that translates C syntax like printf(Hello World) to object file that will be linked by other modules included in Keil package to generate a file of HEX format. This HEX code is the execute file for the AT89S52 microcontroller. The first project is located at cd:\src\chp2\src2_1\. Most of the projects are also available from our web site under www.TechToys.com.hk AT89S52gLCD-STK1 kit. Project name is blinkLED.uv2. Launch uVision2 IDE, under Project, browse to blinkLED.uv2 and click open. Project under Keil has the file extension of *.uv2. Take a brief look on the source code, under Project->Rebuild all target files. A HEX file will be created which may be downloaded to the AT89S52 mcu via the ISP port or an independent mcu programmer. Embedded-system development starts here!
