The one thing that really makes ARMs stand out above the 8051 is that they all have on-chip debug - which really is a boon for the hobbyist/experimenter! Without on-chip debug, lots of hobbyists gets stuck (doesn't matter what processor archictecture) when their processor fails to boot, and they can't figure out if it is an error in the startup file, or the project settings or maybe a failure to correctly download the test program. |
