Description

The DP8051XP is an ultra-high performancespeed-optimized softcore, of a single-chip, 8-bit embedded controller, intended to operate with fast (typically on-chip) and slow (off-chip) memories. The core was designed with a special concern about the performance to power-consumption ratio. This ratio is extended by the PMU – an advanced power management unit.
The DP8051XP softcore is 100% binary-compatible with an industry-standard 8051 8-bit microcontroller. There are two configurations of the DP8051XP:

  • Harvard, where internal data and program buses are separated, and
  • von Neumann, with common program and external data bus

The DP8051XP has a Pipelined RISC architecture and executes 120-300 million instructions per second. Dhrystone 2.1 benchmark program runs from 11.46 to 15.55 times faster than the original 80C51 at the same frequency. The same C compiler was used for benchmarking of the core vs 80C51 with the same settings. This performance can be also exploited to great advantage in low-power applications, where the core can be clocked over ten times slower than the original implementation, without performance depletion. The DP8051XP is delivered with a fully automated test bench and a complete set of tests, allowing easy package validation at each stage of the SoC design flow. Each of DCD’s 8051 Cores has built-in support for a proprietary Hardware Debug System called DoCD™. It is a real-time hardware debugger, which provides debugging capability of a whole System-on-Chip (SoC). Unlike other on-chip debuggers, the DoCD™ provides non-intrusive debugging of a running application. It can halt, run, step into or skip an instruction, and read/write any contents of the microcontroller, including all registers, internal and external program memories, and all SFRs, including user-defined peripherals.

Features

DoCD Debugger

Power of Innovation is our primary target. That’s why our R&D focuses on every IP Core detail. As a result of that concern, some unique solutions were born. One of them is the on-Chip Debugger (DoCD™), which is a complete debugging system, dedicated for DCD's DQ80251/DQ8051/DT8051/DP8051x/DP80390x Microcontroller Cores.
