MCB251 Evaluation Board

The Keil MCB251 Evaluation Board introduces you to the Intel 251 Microcontroller Family (a high-speed, high-performance derivative of the 8051).

This evaluation board includes a 2K-limited copy of the Keil 251 development tools.

The Keil MCB251 single-board computer is an evaluation board for the Intel and Atmel 251 family of microcontrollers. The MCB251 allows you to investigate the capabilities of the 251 and create real working programs with the Keil development tools. The board provides a capable prototyping platform for your 251 projects.

The MCB251 helps you become familiar with the different operating modes of the 251 microcontroller. It supports all operating modes of the 251 including source, binary, paged, and non-paged.

The MCB251 supports 251 and 8051 (44-pin PLCC) devices. By creating and testing code for the various operating modes of the 251 and 8051, you can evaluate code and processor performance. These factors can be weighed against other production parameters to help choose the optimum code and processor combination.

Alternatively, you may choose to simply play with the board, make it flash the LEDs, and write "Hello World" out the serial port.
