HI All

I've looked at Keil uVIsion (Trial Version) as well as Asem51v1.3 (old
stuff).

Any suggestions of the compiler software you're using to write/compile your
code and create hex files to upload to the ATMEL microcontrollers. I would
rather review a few other options, than to invest in the Keil software, only
to discover afterwards that there are maybe better tools for the job

(Apologies for my tenses/grammar - English is my second language)

Kind Regards

I am using ImageCraft for the AVR. Cheap and good. Excellent support.

Atmel make a lot of different microcontrollers - are you talking about
their 8051 devices, or something else? And have you looked at other
architectures? There a couple of dozen other cpu architectures that are
better suited to C development than the 8051, and have better ranges of
tools.

Second vote here for Imagecraft. Been using it professionally for
several years.

Do ImageCraft make 8051 tools?
