The 16 bytes (128 bits) at internal RAM locations 0x20-0x2F are bit-addressable.
Of the 128-byte internal RAM of the 8051, only 16 bytes are bit-addressable. The rest must be accessed in byte format. The bit-addressable RAM locations are 20H to 2FH.
The bit addressable memory in 8051 is compose from 210 bits: - bit address space: 20H - 2FH bytes RAM = 00H - 7FH bits address; - SFR registers; The following addresses are NOT bit addressable, only 1-byte addressable: - 32 bytes RAM from 00H to 1FH (R0 - R7 registers in all four banks); - 80 bytes RAM general user from 30H to 7FH.
the internal RAM is for data storage and for many applications is all that is needed.
Internal Ram in 8051the 8051 includes a certain amount of on-chip memory. On-chip memory is really one of two types: Internal RAM and Special Function Register (SFR) memory.External Ram in 8051As an obvious opposite of Internal RAM, the 8051 also supports what is called External RAM.As the name suggests, External RAM is any random access memory which is found off-chip. Since the memory is off-chip it is not as flexible in terms of accessing, and is also slower. For example, to increment an Internal RAM location by 1 requires only 1 instruction and 1 instruction cycle. To increment a 1-byte value stored in External RAM requires 4 instructions and 7 instruction cycles. In this case, external memory is 7 times slower!I.R.K.Seneviratne - Sri Lanka
Sorry sir i don't no.
8051 and 8052 aren't interchangable, but they are similar.The 8052 is identical to the 8051 with the following enhancements:1. The 8052 has 256 bytes of internal RAM, the 8051 has 128.2. The 8052 has three (3) 16-bit timers, the 8051 has two (2). The third timer has some new operation modes not available with the 8051.
In other words, how do you save temporary data such as data stored in registers r0 to r7 ? The simplest way to use on-chip RAM of the 8051 is to compile your C code with the "--model-small" small memory model option of the SDCC compiler, which tells it to put all variables in on-chip RAM of the 8051.

RAM is Internal.
The Intel 8051 is an 8-bit microcontroller which means that most available operations are limited to 8 bits. There are 3 basic "sizes" of the 8051: Short, Standard, and Extended. The Short and Standard chips are often available in DIP form, but the Extended 8051 models often have a different form factor, and are not "drop-in compatable". All these things are called 8051 because they can all be programmed using 8051 assembly language, and they all share certain features (although the different models all have their own special features). Some of the features that have made the 8051 popular are: * 8-bit data bus * 16-bit address bus * 32 general purpose registers each of 8 bits * 16 bit timers (usually 2, but may have more, or less). * 3 internal and 2 external interrupts. * Bit as well as byte addressable RAM area of 16 bytes. * Four 8-bit ports, (short models have two 8-bit ports). * 16-bit program counter and data pointer 8051 models may also have a number of special, model-specific features, such as UARTs, ADC, OpAmps, etc...
The microcontrollers have an 8-bit data bus. They are capable of addressing 64K of program memory and a separate 64K of data memory. The 8051 has 4K of code memory implemented as on-chip Read Only Memory (ROM). The 8051 has 128 bytes of internal Random Access Memory (RAM). The 8051 has two timer/counters, a serial port, 4 general purpose parallel input/output ports, and interrupt control logic with five sources of interrupts. Besides internal RAM, the 8051 has various Special Function Registers (SFR), which are the control and data registers for on-chip facilities. The SFRs also include the accumulator, the B register, and the Program Status Word (PSW), which contains the CPU flags. << SHARMILA TANDEL (B.E) ELECTRONICS >>
