at89c52 bootloader

Started by DigitalBug February 4, 2005
Hii all,
I am looking for Atmel89c52 bootloader so that i can do in-system
programming.  I searched the net, but could not find any site regarding
this.  Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks, 
Sharaf

You can't in-system program an 89C52. It needs an external parallel programmer. -- Tim Mitchell

IIRC, Atmel had a schematic showing how it (ISP, not a bootloader) could be done- but it was WAY more trouble than it was worth. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany -- "it's the network..."

Its successor, 89S52, has ISP capability (using a few port pins for SPI). The software is free for download, the cable consists of a single buffer IC and a few passives. -- Dipl.-Ing. Tilmann Reh http://www.autometer.de - Elektronik nach Ma&#4294967295;

But the 89C51RD2 (Atmel or Philips) is ISP and superior to the 89C52 Paul Burke

The request for a boot loader sounded like he was wanting it to program itself. Even the 89S52 can't do that. The AT89C51RD2 can reprogram itself and is pin compatible with 89C52. It has a built in boot loader which allows you to program it directly from a PC serial port. (with a max232 or something) -- Tim Mitchell

I know. We are using both types in current products and developments. :-) I simply overlooked the "bootloader" when answering your statement mentioning the need of parallel programming. -- Dipl.-Ing. Tilmann Reh http://www.autometer.de - Elektronik nach Ma&#4294967295;
