Appendix A
BASIC-52 User’s Manual (Intel #270010-004
$15
Complete reference to the BASIC-52 programming language. Includes some circuit schematics.
Embedded Microcontrollers Handbook (Intel)
$22.95
Intel’s handbook, or data book, has hardware details and an assembly-languuage reference for the 8052 and 80C52 (and much more), but nothing specifically about the 8052BASIC chip. Intel updates the data books yearly, so the exact title and price may vary.
Ask for the data book that covers 8-bit embedded controllers. Philips, Siemens, and other
manufacturers also publish data books for their 8052 and 80C52 chips.
8051/2 Microcontrollers
These are some additional books about the 8051 family of microcontrollers. The Product
Vendors list has addresses and phone numbers for many of the publishers. Local bookstores
can order the others, which are from major publishers.
Assembly Language Programming (L.S. Electronic Systems, 190 pages, $33.00). For the
8051 family.
C and the 8051: Programming and Multitasking, by Thomas W. Schultz (Prentice Hall,
