Example Source Code - Silicon Laboratories C8051F2 Series User Manual

C8051F2xx-DK

5. Example Source Code

Example source code and register definition files are provided in the "SiLabs\MCU\Examples\C8051F2xx"
directory during IDE installation. These files may be used as a template for code development. Example
applications include a blinking LED example which configures the green LED on the target board to blink at a fixed
rate.
5.1. Register Definition Files
Register definition files C8051F200.inc and C8051F200.h define all SFR registers and bit-addressable
control/status bits. They are installed into the "SiLabs\MCU\Examples\C8051F2xx" directory during IDE
installation. The register and bit names are identical to those used in the C8051F2xx data sheet. Both register
definition files are also installed in the default search path used by the Keil Software 8051 tools. Therefore, when
using the Keil 8051 tools included with the development kit (A51, C51), it is not necessary to copy a register
definition file to each project's file directory.
5.2. Blinking LED Example
The example source files blink.asm and blinky.c show examples of several basic C8051F2xx functions. These
include; disabling the watchdog timer (WDT), configuring the Port I/O crossbar, configuring a timer for an interrupt
routine, initializing the system clock, and configuring a GPIO port. When compiled/assembled and linked this
program flashes the green LED on the target board about five times a second using the interrupt handler with a
timer.
