The Intel MCS-51 is a  Harvard architecture, single chip microcontroller (µC) series which was developed by Intel in 1980 for use in embedded systems.

Intel’s original versions were popular in the 1980s and early 1990s, but has today largely been superseded by a vast range of faster and/or functionally enhanced 8051-compatible devices manufactured by more than 20 independent manufacturers including Atmel, Infineon Technologies (formerly Siemens AG), Maxim Integrated Products (via its Dallas Semiconductor subsidiary), NXP (formerly Philips Semiconductor), Nuvoton (formerly Winbond), ST Microelectronics, Silicon Laboratories (formerly Cygnal), Texas Instruments and Cypress Semiconductor.

Netmax Technologies  is using mcs-51 (8051) controller from atmel s family (AT89s52 ,AT89s8252 etc)

And Phillips controller (NXP) P89v51 rd2  etc

Our course cover 8051 basics , embedded c programming , adc interfacing ,lcd ,dac ,stepper motor interfacing , stepper motor ,dc motor  etc
