Description

The AT89C52 is a low-power, high-performance CMOS 8-bit microcomputer with 8K

bytes of Flash programmable and erasable read only memory (PEROM). The device

is manufactured using Atmel’s high-density nonvolatile memory technology and is

compatible with the industry-standard 80C51 and 80C52 instruction set and pinout.

The on-chip Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system or by a

conventional nonvolatile memory programmer. By combining a versatile 8-bit CPU

with Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT89C52 is a powerful microcomputer

which provides a highly-flexible and cost-effective solution to many embedded control

applications.
