Our family of microcontrollers, originally designed for Mentor Graphics Corporation, are the M8051, M8052, M8051W and M8051EW and have a long established reputation with the blue chip semiconductor manufacturers for quality and ease of use.
All these designs are silicon proven with countless tape outs over many years. They are maintained to keep step with developments in the EDA environment and synchronous design methodology so they remain simple to adopt and integrate into both ASIC and FPGA design flows. Our products are 8051-compatible 8-bit microcontrollers, designed to be precisely software and cycle compatible with the world's most popular microcontroller architecture. This architecture often yields the most simple and efficient solution to many of today's microcontroller applications. With 8-bit controllers continuing to account for over 40% of the total microcontroller market, 8051s continue to be one of the commonest processors found in digital designs.
