Hello, i wrote a simple program to to display text on lcd in nibble mode in MikroC. The problem is when i tried this prog on AT89S52 it worked alright, but on AT89S51 it just didnt work (i.e lcd didnt initialize ;just nothing happened) .. i wrote many other simple prog and tested on both ics and all worked but display text in nibble mode isnt working in AT89S51..

What is the code.Can you post it?.

You do realize that they are different parts with subtle differences that are nonetheless spelled out in the datasheets. Right?

When Intel made the originals there was a clear distinction between the two flavors. Atmel did not invent these things, they were always just a second source. One among many.

the first line is your problem. The above line is setting up the stack pointer to an address that does not exist in the 89S51. The 89S52 has twice the ram as the 89S51.

If you select the 89S51 in your compiler then the code will work for both the 89S51 and the 89S52.

 

It would also work if you select the correct processor for each build, or as was suggested make one build that works for both.

Notice from the datasheets that the AT89S52 has peripheral devices and pin functions that are not available on the AT89S51.

Where is the call to delay_ms(1000) that shows up in the assembled output but not in the orginal C-code. Maybe a little fudging going on?
