Hi,
If I want to learn 8051, can I use CY7C68013A?
CY7C68013A has integrated 8051 microcontroller, and it's very cheap
 
You need a C compiler or assembler for the CY7C68013A.
The timing will be different that a 8051. I did not read all 71 pages of data. Most new 8051(s) are MUCH faster. Some of the instruction much faster.
It is like getting a new car and by mistake they give you a rice car. It will get you to work just fine.
I would not play with the USB functions for now.
 
SDCC is one of the best 8051 compilers, and its free....

I would need to check out the specs, but it seems as if it has a USB bootloader... Neat! Where you'd get the software ? I should imagine at Cypress!!

Did you get a Dev board????
 
I think the schematic look like this
Many people bought CY7C68013A at ebay or aliexpress, because it's logic analyzer clone of a product. Some people use it with Signok. I think it's same like EZ-USB or USB-FX2 interface.
But I want use it for fun experiment with fast usb support, and if in the future I want to move to other microprocessor or FPGA, I might use it as USB to parallel. Just an idea for cheap solution
I haven't bought it. Want to know first if it possible for learn 8051.
