Keil: A Cross Compiler

The Keil 8051 Development Tools aredesigned to solve the complex problemsfacing embedded software developers.

Keil offers an evaluation package that willallow the assembly and debugging of files 2Kor less.

This package is freely available at their web

site. Keils website address is www.keil.com.

Concept of compiler

Compilers are programs used to convert a High

Level Language to object code.

So if one wants to define a compiler then

compiler is a program that translates sourcecode into object code.

A cross compiler is similar to the compilers but

we write a program for the target processor (like

8051 and its derivatives) on the host processors

(like computer of x86)

It means being in one environment you are

writing a code for another environment is

called cross development. And the compiler

used for cross development is called crosscompiler.

Why do we need cross compiler?

Development of complex embedded systems completedin a fraction of the time

Reliability is improved Maintenance is easy Knowledge of the processor instruction set and memory

architecture is not required Improved program readability Keywords and operational functions that more nearly

resemble the human thought process can be used. Program development and debugging times are

dramatically reduced Existing routine can be reused in new programs by

utilizing the modular programming techniques availablewith C.

Development tools provided by Keil

IDE (Integrated Development environment)

Project Manager

Simulator

Debugger

C Cross Compiler , Cross Assembler,

Locator/Linker

www.8051.in

An assembler is used to assemble your 8051

assembly program

A compiler is used to compile your C source

code into an object file

A linker is used to create an absolute object

module suitable for your in-circuit emulator.

8051 project development cycle

These are the steps to develop 8051 project

using keil

Create source files in C or assembly.

Compile or assemble source files.

Correct errors in source files.

Link object files from compiler and assembler.

Test linked application

Basic Keil Tutorial

Open Keil from the Start menu

The Figure below shows the basic names of the

windows referred.

www.8051.in


10/33

You can see three different windows in this

screen. 1) project work space window 2)editing window 3) output window.

Project workspace window is for showing allthe related files connected with your project.

Editing window is the place where you will editthe code

Output window will show the output when youcompile or build or run your project.
