An old man stands up and is a veteran with a long tradition, especially here at Elektor. With MCS-BASIC-52 I have dared to make a fresh restart.
O-M-S-U is not concerned with developing something groundbreakingly new, but rather with bringing "old" and proven things up to date. The aim of this project is to show that technology from "yesterday" can still be used profitably for real projects and for training while still being fun. With a high-level language that is easy, understandable and quick to learn and that paved the way for a whole generation to use computers. If you also enjoy "retro" then you've come to the right place. There are countless descriptions of MCS-BASIC-52 on the Internet. The Elektor website is a good place to start. On this topic I can highly recommend the book "Mikrocontroller-Praxis ISBN 3-928051-58-X" by Andreas Roßrucker, published in 1994 by Elektor-Verlag. Unfortunately, this book is very difficult or even no longer available. Perhaps the Elektor publishing house can bring itself to offer such old but very well-made books as PDFs for sale. It has an excellent didactic structure and can be used as a guide for training or as a reference work. For the O-M-S-U CPU published here, I will also publish the expansion cards that I have already finished. The first expansion card is an output card with 8 relays on board. However, these are not the usual standard circuits. The 8-way relay circuit board includes a way to read back the output states and a Watchdog that switches off all outputs if BASIC is stopped or a software error occurs (who would like it if motors could simply run uncontrollably). The second expansion card is a 16-way input card that can handle an input voltage of 24VDC and is galvanically isolated from the control voltage via optocouplers. This input card has a classic design, as you would expect.
With just these two expansion cards, you can build nice little control units (PLCs) and MCS BASIC-52 can do what it was originally intended for.
I admit that this garden irrigation control could have been made even smaller with the O-M-S-U control, but that wasn't important to me, as this control works safely and reliably. It will probably still work when I'm retired. But building the housing with MakerBeem was also great fun, and that's what it's all about in the end? Learning and having fun.
O-M-S-U garden irrigation as an example
I am very sure that more expansions will follow! I'm having a lot of fun with this project and I hope many other electronics enthusiasts feel the same way.
JUMPER There are three jumpers on this board, that's all. Jumper EA = Used to switch between internal or external program memory. If EA-Jumper not plugged = internal program memory (MCS-BASIC-52) Else EA=plugged = external program memory This jumper does not need to be plugged in to use MCS-BASIC-52 . FS-Jumper = FLASH-SAVE is used to protect the FLASH memory from accidental deletion or overwriting. If you want to save new programs on the FLASH, this jumper must be plugged in.
Jumper-FP/FD = Flash Prog or Flash Direct. This jumper must be set to FD when using MCS-BASIC-52 version 1.3. When using version 1.1, this jumper must be set to FP. If you want to delete the flash memory in the system with version 1.1, you have to load a small BASIC program and set this jumper to FD. In version 1.3, the jumper can always remain set to the FD position. The goals at a glance
Reliability and clarity.
Good availability of components.
Easy access to all important signals.
Easy to assemble even for beginners.
Easy to maintain and repair.
Compatible with MCS-BASIC-52 V1.1 to V1.3.
Easy expandability and wide range of functions.
Reliability and clarity
The circuit is housed on a circuit board in EURO format. The individual function groups are clearly divided and labeled using the assembly print, so that even a novice can find his way around the circuit board very quickly. The circuit itself is based on the Compuboard (Elektor issue April 1991) by Hubert Reelsen, which was also used in the Elektor book (Microcontroller Practice) from 1994 by Andreas Roßrucker. The circuit from back then was well thought out and has been tried and tested. The circuit design was only expanded with the necessary adjustments and additions. The circuit board has its own DC/DC converter, which was designed in such a way that it is more than adequately dimensioned for the circuit. With an input voltage range of 9V to 35V and an output voltage of 5V at max. 500mA, there is enough reserve for your own extensions. The OMSU board requires a maximum of 80mA when fully assembled. The expansion ports are based on the principle of today's Arduino boards.
Good availability of components
The components are available from the usual dealers. You can't get everything from one dealer, but you can easily put together the components you need from various sources. The 82C55 is available in the PDIP version on eBay and the author has already purchased it from various suppliers there without being disappointed.
Easy access to all important signals.
All signal lines are easily accessible via the socket strips or the components themselves, so that it is not a challenge to carry out measurements. This is particularly advantageous for training purposes but also for developing your own circuits.
Easy to assemble even for beginners
The consistent use of wired components is particularly beneficial for soldering beginners. In addition, all ICs used are designed with precision sockets, which prevents the components from overheating due to soldering for too long.
Compatible with MCS-BASIC-52 V1.1 to V1.3
The circuit design was changed so that the circuit is fully compatible with the MCS-BASIC-52 V1.1, V1.2 as well as with version 1.3 published in Elektor by Detlef Wulf and Hans-Jürgen Böhling. To ensure compatibility between the versions, only one jumper needs to be moved. All versions of the MCS-BASIC-52 should be located in the internal 8K flash memory of the AT89S52 for the full range of functions. However, since the AT89S52 has an ISP interface and the versions are available in Intel HEX or binary format, this hurdle is now very easy to overcome. There are some good descriptions on the Internet. I am also working on a simple how-to so that this process will be even easier for beginners.
Easy expandability and wide range of functions
All necessary and important signals are routed to socket strips on the long sides of the circuit board (similar to Arduino boards). The expansion is therefore very easy to solve thanks to the sandwich design and functionally reliable devices can also be designed for your own projects. When fully equipped, the circuit offers a number of additional expansion options. This includes the real-time clock with NV-RAM, an 82C55, for example for an LCD text display with buttons, as well as the fully routed address and data bus with additional address decoder, which greatly reduces the effort required for your own I/O expansions. The board can also offer an I2C interface implemented in software if the expansion written by Detlef Wulf and Hans-Jürgen Böhling is stored in the external flash. The original expansion was only slightly adapted to the OMSU hardware by the author and is available with source code and as a HEX file. This software expansion then gives you the option of accessing the popular i2C interface directly from BASIC.
Memory allocation
The internal code memory consists of the 8052-BASIC's internal FLASH, which uses addresses 0 to 1FFFh. In addition, an external data memory (RAM) starting at 0 hex is required. BASIC-52 reserves the first 512 bytes (0-1FFh) of RAM for its own use and stores the current BASIC-52 user program immediately above it, starting at address 200h . The memory map shows a 32K RAM that uses the entire range from 0 to 7FFFh. (The 8052 also has 256 bytes of internal data memory, not shown in the memory map.) A 16K block combines code/data memory and is reserved from 8000h - BFFFh. Above this block of code/data memory is the I/O area, which runs from C000h to FFFFh. The actual area intended for I/O interfaces is in the range from C000h to DFFFh . This area is already partially decoded (more below) and is connected to the expansion port with its own connections. From address 0E000h to FFFFh in the I/O area, the NVRAM is provided, which also contains a real-time clock (depending on the component). If this NVRAM is omitted, this I/O area is also completely available to the user.
