8051SBC: Microprocessor Learning Board
ASM51: Assembler & Terminal emulator

Hints for assembly the 8051SBC hardware.

Before solder the components please be advised that 95% problems were caused by soldering! So you should play attention for every pad to be soldered. There are many tutorials on good soldering technique. Here is the example,

And more details in pdf format Soldering Tutorial

For passive components: the electrolytic cap 10uF has polarity + and -. If you look closer at the layout, you will see there are round and square pads. The square one is positive! For nonpolar cap, says 0.1uF multilayer, you can put it without the need of checking polarity.

For active components: LED has cathode and anode pin. Usually the LED manufacture uses substrate as the cathode pin, but not all. So before place the LED, please check cathode and anode pin beforehand. The layout onboard now for square one is anode pin! Similarly for rectifying diode, 1N4001 and signal diode 1N4148 has square pad for anode pin. For integrated circuit, square pad is pin number 1.

After finish solder all sockets and passive components, without putting all chips, we have to check out as follows;

1. +5V output from voltage regulator,
2. +5V at all sockets,
3. use logic probe check reset pin of the CPU (pin9), try put DC jack to the board again. We must get a logic high pulse and then logic low.

Now add all components to the board. Ensure to put the chip in right position. Refer to pin 1 with square pad! Then tie the board to PC com port, say COM1 and run hyperterminal or XTALK with 9600 8n1. Press ENTER after power board up, you must get message from board. Let's test some hardware with code below.

Test code for 8051SBC

You may test your board with hex code below. Hello.hex is for simple printing hello worlds to PC screen. DS1307 is for testing Real-time Clock chip and LCD is for testing onboard LCD.
