#190793 - MCU choices
Responding to: ???'s previous message

So I created a simple single-byte markup language that is human readable, and used the '8252 to just translate - It takes serial input, buffers it ( up to 128 bytes, but can do more ) then can transfer it to the SPI, reads the SPI output, and returns this to the buffer, which can be dumped out in hex by a single byte command.

It's a good idea to keep the remote side simple, but keep in mind some ISP solutions requires a Clock for the MCU as well.

So if anyone is having programmer troubles and needs a good simple SPI programmer, happy to help - Though you'll have to be able to program at least some SPI capable chip like an 89S8252 to begin with.


That has something of a Catch-22 about it.
You are probably better using an AT89LP51RB2, as host, which has an inbuilt Serial boot loader, so someone can program it initially via UART.

Otherwise, if anyone likes this idea and wants to assist with further development ( eg, Windows user-friendly interface, or programmer front-ends ) or even ideas or wishes they'd like to see included, please reply here.


Did you look at TSim51 ?

That has ISP for AT89LP series, already done :)
