Our educational packages are designed as complete systems. We provide
hardware, software, and textbooks, designed to work together. We also
provide a chip simulator for the 8051 family so students can write and debug
their software at home and save valuable lab time for more hands-on work with
the hardware.
Education Packages are available for
both the 8051 and C166 / ST10 microcontrollers. The following are some
of our standard packages. If these standard packages aren't what you are
looking for, call and we can put a package together just for you.
Schools, Students (with valid school ID), and US military personal receive a
10% discount on all products.
R-31JP LabPac
This is our best selling educational package. It includes the R-31JP,
Reads51, "Programming and Interfacing the 8051 Microcontroller in C
and Assembly" power regulator kit, demo software from Keil,
Tasking, and data sheets for all of the parts used on the board and in the
book. Everything someone new to the 8051 needs to get started.
Fuzzy Logic LabPac
This package has been put together at a discount for those interested in Fuzzy
Logic applications using the 8051 family of microcontrollers. Detailed
information on the hardware, software, and books may be found on the web site.
RMB-S LabPac
This package is designed for a beginner and can be self-taught. The intended
audience is engineers and anyone interested in learning the 8051 family of
microcontrollers. The course is built around the RMB-S / Reads51 /
"Programming and Interfacing the 8051 Microcontroller in C and
Assembly" package and contains background information on
microcontrollers, assembly language, C, fundamental program blocks,
control applications, hardware/software integration, and hardware design
considerations.
R-515JC LabPac
The R-515JC Trainer Kit is designed as a low cost platform for learning the
C500 / 8051 Family of microcontrollers. The R-515JC LabPac includes the
R-515JC Board, Reads51 software, "Programming and Interfacing the
8051 Microcontroller in C and Assembly", user’s manuals for the
hardware and software, serial cables, power regulator kit, demo software
from Keil, Tasking, and data sheets for all of the parts used on the board and
in the book.
"The 8051 Cookbook for Assembly and C"
This book was written to as a entree level textbook and starts with the
fundamentals of programming in Assembly and C. The book then
covers a wide range of subjects with example code written in both Assembly and
C. At the end of the book we show you how to use the material covered in
the book to build your own robot. Software includes: Reads51, source
code for experiments in book, data sheets for components used in the book.
Programming and Interfacing the 8051
Microcontroller in C and Assembly
This 400+ page textbook recognizes the changes wrought
in the design process by the expansion and proliferation of the derivatives of
the 8051 8-bit single-chip processor, first developed by Intel Corporation. It
provides an exposure to the diverse and powerful family of the 8051
microcontrollers now manufactured. A comprehensive hands-on approach is taken
to present how the microcontrollers are programmed and interfaced to external
circuitry to perform useful automation and control functions. Programming
nuggets in C and assembly are given for each instruction and each operating
mode of the family.
“Internetworking
Eight-Bit Microcontrollers Fundamentals and Applications with the 8051"
This textbook is the results of
ongoing research and development by Rigel Corporation. The concepts
discussed in the book have been used in the classroom for a graduate course
taught at the University of Florida during the past few years.
The book develops a breadth-oriented exposure to Internetworking, from
circuitry to HTTP. Original
discussions on the fundamental concepts of computer networking follow from the
authors’ many years of experience in the field both as researchers and as
developers of industrial products. The
fundamental concepts are reinforced by a series of elaborate experiments.
As an alternative to BSD sockets, this book presents a recursive
stack-oriented approach to network connectivity.
This approach is especially suitable for small microcontrollers where
code and data memory are limited. This
original approach was developed by the authors in the late 1990s and
implemented in Rigel Corporation’s Rita family of industrial controllers,
which have since been used in several end products.
