TWO MARKS
1.What is the condition for timer overflow?
In most cases, we will be concerned with 16-bit timers. Assuming the count starts at 0, then
– after 65.535 ms – our 12 MHz 8051 will reach its maximum value (65535) and the timer
will then ‘overflow’. When it overflows, a hardware flag will be set. We can easily read this
flag in software.

E
2. What are the calculations of hardware delays?
We calculate the required starting value for the timer.
We load this value into the timer.
CO
We start the timer.
The timer will be incremented, without software intervention, at a rate deter-
CE

mined by the oscillator frequency; we wait for the timer to reach its maximum
value and ‘roll over’.
The timer signals the end of the delay by changing the value of a flag variable.
RA

3. TCON special function register (SFR) bit ?

G

4. TMOD Register SFR stands for?

5. Write the formula to be loaded in TH & TL registers.

To generate a 15 ms hardware delay. We will assume that we are using a 12 MHz 8051, and
that this device requires 12 oscillator cycles to perform each timer increment: the timer is

incremented at a 1 MHz rate. A 15 ms delay therefore requires the following number of timer
increments:
15ms
---------------- × 1000000 = 15000 increments.
1000ms
The timer overflows when it is incremented from its maximum count of 65535.
Thus, the initial value we need to load to produce a 15ms delay is:
65536 – 15000 = 50536 (decimal) = 0xC568
6.Why Timer 2 is not used?
Timer 2 can be used to generate delays . However, this is not an inappropriate use for this
resource (in most applications). This is because Timer 2 has features which make it
particularly well suited to the creation of an operating system, and most ‘real’ applications

E
will reserve Timer 2 for this purpose.

CO
7. Write a c program to generate delay using timer?
void DELAY_HARDWARE_50ms(void)
{
// Configure Timer 0 as a 16-bit timer
CE

TMOD &= 0xF0; // Clear all T0 bits (T1 left unchanged)

TMOD |= 0x01; // Set required T0 bits (T1 left unchanged)
RA

ET0 = 0; // No interupts
// Values for 50 ms delay
TH0 = 0x3C; // Timer 0 initial value (High Byte)
G

TL0 = 0xB0; // Timer 0 initial value (Low Byte)

TF0 = 0; // Clear overflow flag
TR0 = 1; // Start timer 0
while (TF0 == 0); // Loop until Timer 0 overflows (TF0 == 1)
TR0 = 0; // Stop Timer 0

}
8. Write few example for languages & Machine Code used?
First-Generation Language (1GL) Assembly Language.
Second-Generation Languages (2GLs) COBOL, FORTRAN

Third-Generation Languages (3GLs) C, Pascal, Ada 83

Fourth-Generation Languages (4GLs) C++, Java, Ada 95
9. What is Device Header?
These files will, in most cases, have been produced by your compiler manufacturer, and will
include the addresses of the special function registers (SFRs) used for port access, plus
similar
details for other on-chip components such as analog-to-digital converters.
10.What is Project header?
The ‘Project Header’ is simply a header file, included in all projects, that groups the key
information about the 8051 device you have used, along with other key parameters – such as
the oscillator frequency – in one file.
