correction to HWD3 solution: add flops for do-it-once behavior

MTK: an alternate loader program, from Dallas Interface is not as good as that of Loader420, but includes some extra features, including ability to slow the write cycle on download.Lab 22 Program Sources
The two pulse-measuring programs are written without reference to an external bus, so no rewriting is required (beyond swapping between two versions of a few lines of SHOWCAP code, in the second of these programs, the one that uses a timer).
SPI digital potentiometer program (SPI_digipot_int_504.a51)
First timer program: TMR800.A51
Servo motor control program (servopulse_1204.a51).
Pulse-measuring program (decimal output) (pulse_measure_decimal_standalone_505.a51).
Pulse-measuring program (hex/binary output) (pulse_measure_capture_standalone_505.a51).

C files to try
These are very simple C programs, equivalent to some of the labs' assembly-language programs. They may help to introduce you to some of the 8051 extensions to the language; there's nothing clever, here.delay_bitflip_408.c Flips bit P1.0 at about 2 Hz. Useful to reassure yourself that a download to Flash ROM has worked.
keypad_to_disp_408.c Exact equivalent to an early Lab 19 program.
keysum.c Another lab 19 program: adds keypad value to running sum.
int_separate_intsetup.c Increments display on each INT0* interrupt (a lab 20 program equivalent).
adc_dac_int_408.c Reads sample from ADC to DAC on each interrupt (a lab 21 program equivalent).
bit_test_c_dec07.c A simple bit-test loop, equivalent to a lab 20 program.
tblcopy_804.c Copies a small table.
tblcopy_reverse_406.c Copies a small table, in reverse order (this is hard work in assembly, and dead easy in C!)

sequence_detect_tb.v Verilog testbench for sequence detector.
sequence_detect_MT.a51 start of RIDE assembly-language sequence detector.
bit_test_804.c Scraps of a C file to show some details of bit operations.
Some programs you might try, once your have Loader working (these are source files; you'll need to assemble or compile and link, using RIDE, in order to produce the .HEX file you'll ship to the micro):
storage scope program, to download to micro: tableint_Rn_408.a51
bit flip program, to download to micro: portpin_408.a51
C language version of bit flip program, to download to micro: flip_bit_408.c .

Raison 8051 assembler and simulator
Here is the excellent free program (free for code size under4K) that I use to assemble and simulate code.
It's a zipped file (about 37M),and includes instructions.
When we ask you to do some coding, Ride will help a lot, though
it is notessential (you can use the programmer's reference, in the posted set ofsources, to see the instruction set. You may not
need even that: some preferjust steal code from the lab programs!).
The file:
ShortNote on how to use the RIDE Assembler & Simulator
Sampleprograms (some of those used in the micro labs)
kit51_747_.exe: zipped Raisonance assembler,
compiler & simulator.
(37 Meg, zipped)
And here--long before you'll need it--is a file of vector names--an".INC" file that zealots
will want to include in the INC directory oftheir Raisonance/Ride installation! (I realize I may be speaking to no one atall.)
Here it is: a table of symbolic names
for the80C320's vector addresses (for use with a program that relies oninterrupts). These vector addresses are
the same for the DS89C420 and DS89C430, incidentally.
Link to RIDE documentation: detailed user's guide
I expect this is much more than you want; but here it is, anyway, for thezealot
who wants the full story about the Raisonance assembler, compiler &simulator.

Verilog download
Verilog download, free from a PLD manufacturer, Xilinx. The download is very large (probably you'll need > 100Megs--and the largest version offered is 1.7Gig!). You'll find the program here: Xilinx Verilog/ABEL download (restricted to Xilinx parts); Click on ISE WebPACK, register, and download. (You do not need the ModelSim simulator.)Here's a pretty good introductory tutorial on Verilog
Enormous Verilog (and VHDL) reference, from Xilinx (.PDF) You won't want to print this, at almost 700 pages, but may want to consult it. Includes a great many sample files.
