8. Restrictions on Certain Instructions

The AT89S2051/S4051 is an economical and cost-effective member of Atmel’s family of micro-

controllers. It contains 2K/4K bytes of Flash program memory. It is fully compatible with the

MCS-51 architecture, and can be programmed using the MCS-51 instruction set. However,

there are a few considerations one must keep in mind when utilizing certain instructions to pro-

gram this device.

All the instructions related to jumping or branching should be restricted such that the destination

address falls within the physical program memory space of the device, which is 2K/4K for the

AT89S2051/S4051. This should be the responsibility of the software programmer. For example,

LJMP 7E0H would be a valid instruction for the AT89S2051 (with 2K of memory), whereas LJMP

900H would not.

8.1 Branching Instructions

LCALL, LJMP, ACALL, AJMP, SJMP, JMP @A+DPTR. These unconditional branching

instructions will execute correctly as long as the programmer keeps in mind that the destination

branching address must fall within the physical boundaries of the program memory size (loca-

tions 00H to 7FFH/FFFH for the AT89S2051/S4051). Violating the physical space limits may

cause unknown program behavior.

CJNE [...], DJNZ [...], JB, JNB, JC, JNC, JBC, JZ, JNZ. With these conditional branching

instructions, the same rule above applies. Again, violating the memory boundaries may cause

erratic execution.

For applications involving interrupts, the normal interrupt service routine address locations of the

80C51 family architecture have been preserved.

8.2 MOVX-related Instructions, Data Memory

The AT89S2051/S4051 contains 256 bytes of internal data memory. External DATA memory

access is not supported in this device, nor is external PROGRAM memory execution. Therefore,

no MOVX [...] instructions should be included in the program.

A typical 80C51 assembler will still assemble instructions, even if they are written in violation of

the restrictions mentioned above. It is the responsibility of the user to know the physical features

and limitations of the device being used and adjust the instructions used accordingly.

9. Program Memory Lock Bits

On the chip are two lock bits which can be left unprogrammed (U) or can be programmed (P) to

obtain the additional features listed in Table 9-1:
