What we have learnt
- The basics of serial communication, including UART, Baud Rate, and data framing.
- The significance of interrupts and how to configure the 8051 microcontroller to handle them effectively.
- The ability to write C programs for serial communication and interrupt-driven applications.
Key Concepts
- -- UART
- Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter is a hardware peripheral that converts parallel data into a serial stream for transmission and vice versa.
- -- Baud Rate
- The rate of data transfer in bits per second, crucial for ensuring reliable communication.
- -- Interrupt Service Routine (ISR)
- A special function executed in response to an interrupt, allowing the microcontroller to manage immediate tasks without polling.
- -- 8051 Serial Port Registers
- Registers like SBUF and SCON that control the operation of the 8051's serial communication features.
- -- Timer Interrupts
- Interrupts triggered by timer overflow, used for executing tasks at regular intervals.
