Study Notes
8051 Microcontroller Instruction Set
- The 8051 Instruction Set is a set of commands that tell the microcontroller what to do. Each instruction is an opcode (operation code) followed by operands.
- There are 49 instruction mnemonics, divided into 5 groups:
- Data Transfer Instructions: Move data between registers, program memory, or data memory.
- Arithmetic Instructions: Perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, increment, decrement, and Decimal Adjust Accumulator (DAA).
- Logical Instructions: Perform logical operations like AND, OR, XOR, NOT, Rotate, Clear, and Swap.
- Boolean or Bit Manipulation Instructions: Deal with bit variables.
- Program Branching Instructions: Control the flow of execution in a program.
8051 Addressing Modes
-
Immediate Addressing: Operand is a constant value directly included in the instruction.
- Example:
MOV A, #030H
(Loads 30H into the Accumulator).
- Example:
-
Register Addressing: Operand is one of the eight registers (R0 - R7) of the currently selected bank.
- Example:
MOV A, R5
(Moves the contents of R5 of the selected bank to the Accumulator).
- Example:
-
Direct Addressing: Operand is the address of data in memory.
- Example:
MOV A, 47H
(Moves the data at memory location 47H to the Accumulator).
- Example:
-
Register Indirect Addressing: Operand address is stored in a register (R0 or R1).
- Example:
MOV A, @R1
(If R1 contains address 56H, moves the data at address 56H to the Accumulator).
- Example:
-
Indexed Addressing: Effective address is calculated by adding the contents of a base register (DPTR or PC) and an offset register (Accumulator).
- Example:
MOVC A, @A+DPTR
(Moves data from the address calculated by A + contents of DPTR).
- Example:
External Memory Interfacing
- 8051 Microcontroller has limited internal memory, external memory interfacing helps expand memory capacity.
- External memory (RAM and ROM) is accessed through a data bus and an address bus, controlled by signals like ALE (Address Latch Enable), PSEN (Program Store Enable), RD, and WR.
- 8051 can address up to 64KB of external data memory using the
MOVX
instruction.
Important Points for Accessing External Memory
- All external data transfers involve the A register (Accumulator).
- R0 and R1 can address 256 bytes, while DPTR can address 64KB.
- Access to external RAM or I/O addresses is done using the
MOVX
instruction.
Timer Interrupts
- Timer interrupts are software events that occur when the Timer counter reaches a certain value.
- Configure timer to trigger the interruption after specific "ticks".
- "Ticks" are intervals defined by the timer frequency divided by a prescaler.
- Timer interrupts are often used to control real-time events and create accurate timing.
External Interrupts
- External interrupts are hardware events that occur when a signal changes from the external world.
- This is useful in applications where external events need to be detected and responded to immediately.
- The code is often handled in an Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) which is used to respond and can be used to toggle I/O ports, change variables, and activate other functions.
Control System Stability
- A stable system's output stays within defined bounds for a bounded input.
- A stable system returns to its equilibrium state after a disturbance.
- Absolute Stability: A system is stable regardless of the input.
- Relative Stability: The system's speed of return to equilibrium after a disturbance.
- Lyapunov Stability: Based on the existence of a Lyapunov function that decreases in value over time.
- Routh-Hurwitz Criterion: Determines stability by analyzing the characteristic equation of the system.
- Nyquist Criterion: Analyzes stability graphically using the frequency response of the system.
- Bode Stability Criterion: Stability is determined using gain and phase margins from Bode plots.
- Transient Response: The initial response of the system before settling. A faster decay indicates better stability.
- Steady-State Response: The output behavior of the system after the transient response subsides. It should converge to a desired value.
- Underdamped Response: Oscillatory response, exceeding the target value before settling.
- Critically Damped Response: The fastest response without oscillations.
- Overdamped Response: Slow return to equilibrium without oscillations.
- Nonlinear Systems: Exhibit unique behaviors (limit cycles and bifurcations), but Lyapunov methods can be applied.
-
Feedback:
- Negative Feedback: Improves stability by reducing sensitivity to parameter variations.
- Positive Feedback: Can lead to instability but is sometimes used deliberately in oscillators.
- Root Locus: A technique to chart how the system's roots change with variations in its parameters.
- State-Space Analysis: Stability is based on the eigenvalues of system matrices. Stability is achieved if all eigenvalues have negative real parts.
- Gain Margin: How much gain increase is needed to make the system unstable.
- Phase Margin: The amount of additional phase lag at which the system becomes unstable.
- Applications of Stability Analysis: Stability analysis is used to design robust systems that function well in various conditions, especially in aerospace, robotics, and automotive industries.
