ASSEMBLING AND RUNNING AN 8051 PROGRAM R.K.Tiwari(ravikumar.tiwari@raisoni.net)  An Assembly language instruction consists of four fields: [label : ] mnemonic [operands] [;comment]
ASSEMBLING AND RUNNING AN 8051 PROGRAM R.K.Tiwari(ravikumar.tiwari@raisoni.net) Figure 2–2 Steps to Create a Program
ASSEMBLING AND RUNNING AN 8051 PROGRAM  More about "a51" and "obj" files  "asm" file is source file and for this reason some assemblers require that this file have the “a51" extension  this file is created with an editor such as Windows Notepad or uVision editor  uVision assembler converts the a51 assembly language instructions into machine language and provides the obj file  assembler also produces the Ist file R.K.Tiwari(ravikumar.tiwari@raisoni.net)
ASSEMBLING AND RUNNING AN 8051 PROGRAM  Ist file (list file)  lst file is useful to the programmer because it lists all the opcodes and addresses as well as errors that the assembler detected  uVision assumes that the list file is not wanted unless you indicate that you want to produce it  file can be accessed by an editor such as Note Pad and displayed on the monitor or sent to the printer to produce a hard copy  programmer uses the list file to find syntax errors  only after fixing all the errors indicated in the lst file that the obj file is ready to be input to the linker program R.K.Tiwari(ravikumar.tiwari@raisoni.net)
THE PROGRAM COUNTER AND ROM SPACE IN THE 8051  Program counter in the 8051  16 bits wide  can access program addresses 0000 to FFFFH  total of 64K bytes of code R.K.Tiwari(ravikumar.tiwari@raisoni.net)
THE PROGRAM COUNTER AND ROM SPACE IN THE 8051  Where the 8051 wakes up when it is powered up:  wakes up at memory address 0000 when it is powered up  first opcode must be stored at ROM address 0000H R.K.Tiwari(ravikumar.tiwari@raisoni.net)
