#153153 - possible, but not really a good idea!
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Craig Steiner said:
Karim, yes, it's possible. But as has been said elsewhere in the thread, the 8052 probably isn't the best choice for it.

Quite so - but I think I would go as far as to say that the 8052 probably isn't even a good choice for it...?

A bit like it is possible to drive a nail in by hitting it with the heel of your boot - possible, but not really a good idea!

So you could do it just for the intellectual challenge - but it's probably not of any real, practical value.

And a lot of the "intellectual challenge" would probably be in working around the 8051's limitations for such a task...
