Re: newbie with a board


The microprocessor as "P51XAG30JBA". It is philips make and the docs say
it's discontinued to make way for P51XAG30KBA. Belongs to the 80C51 class of
16 bit micro controller and XA (eXtended Architecture) with 512 bytes of
onchip RAM, 2 UART's.
The ecos docs didn't mention porting to any such arch. Or is this same as
one of the already ported arch's.

Is anyone familiar with porting of ecos to XA?

thanks
abrar
