 1. Introduction
The 8051 based single board development system (DB – 51) support 8051 family
microcontroller. The software supplied with this kit is having Assembler and In System
Programmer (ISP). Due to this software assembling and programming Flash program
memory becomes very easy. The user for developing real time projects can use this
mini board as a development platform. User can design, build and test any 8051 based
application / project with the help of this development board quickly.
This system is useful for students, teachers, professionals and hobbyist. Student
can apply his theoretical knowledge to develop some project and test it with the help of
this system. Teacher can set new experiments for students based on 8051
microcontroller interfacing with Keypad (3X4), seven-segment display, LED, Switches,
relay, LCD, RTC, E2PROM, I2C bus and RS232 bus. Teacher can also set experiments
based on timer application (as timer / event counter) and serial communication (data
transfer from kit to PC and PC to kit). The professional can develop, test and debug his
project. Also hobbyist can use this board to design and develop their own applications.
This board (DB-51) is provided with PHILIPS P89v51RD2 microcontroller.

7. Serial data transfer via RS 232 port

7.1. Using HyperTerminal:

You can run serial data transfer program on DB-51, you can get display on
computer monitor using hyper terminal program. To use hyper terminal program of your
PC steps are as follows:
Click on start >> programs >> accessories >> communications >> hyper
terminal >> new connection >> name XYZ_1 >> connect using COM1
Properties (configure) as follows:
Bits per second = 9600
Data bits = 8
Parity bit = none
Stop bit = 1
Flow control = none
Properties (settings) as follows:
• Window keys
• Ctrl+H
• Simulation VT100
Save the settings
Now you can use hyper terminal program (XYZ_1) to see key no of pressed key on PC
terminal
