Microcontroller Interrupts

Pin 20 is the Ground Pin of the 8051 Microcontroller, representing 0V and connected to the negative terminal (0V) of the Power Supply.

Pins 21 – 28 are the PORT 2 Pins of the 8051 Microcontroller, which act as a Bidirectional Port, meaning they can function as either Input or Output pins.

Pin 29 is the Program Store Enable Pin (PSEN), which is used to read external Program Memory.

<p>Pin 30 is the Address Latch Enable Pin, which is used to separate external address from data (as they are multiplexed by 8051). During Flash Programming, this pin acts as the program pulse input (PROG).</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Pin 31 is the External Access Enable Pin, which allows external Program Memory to be accessed. Code from external program memory can be fetched only if this pin is LOW. During Flash Programming, this Pin receives 12V Programming Enable Voltage (VPP).</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Pins 32 to 39 are PORT 0 Pins, which are bidirectional Input/Output Pins without any internal pull-ups. In addition to acting as I/O PORT, PORT 0 also acts as the lower order address/data bus when external memory is accessed.</p> Signup and view all the answers
