Product details
Overview
P89LV51RC2BN,112 from NXP Semiconductors is an 8-bit 80C51 microcontroller with 32 kB on-chip flash program memory, 1 kB data RAM, 3 V operation (0–33 MHz), X2 mode for 6-clock-per-machine-cycle execution, and integrated SPI, enhanced UART, PCA with PWM/capture/compare, and programmable watchdog timer. It targets industrial control, sensor interface, and legacy 8051-based embedded systems requiring field firmware updates via ISP/IAP.
For engineers reviewing the P89LV51RC2BN,112 datasheet, P89LV51RC2BN,112 pinout, P89LV51RC2BN,112 application, or P89LV51RC2BN,112 equivalent, key selection criteria include flash size (32 kB), operating voltage (3 V), temperature range (−40 °C to +85 °C), TQFP44 package compatibility, and support for in-system programming and in-application programming without external hardware.
Technical Context
The P89LV51RC2BN,112 implements a standard 80C51 CPU core with dual clock modes: default 12-clock and selectable 6-clock (X2) mode-achieving double instruction throughput at identical crystal frequency or halving clock frequency for EMI reduction. Its memory architecture includes two flash blocks: Block 0 (32 kB user code) and Block 1 (IAP/ISP routines), with bank selection controlled by SWR and BSEL bits in FCF register.
It integrates a 5-channel Programmable Counter Array (PCA) supporting PWM generation, input capture, and software timers; three 16-bit timers/counters; four 8-bit I/O ports with three high-current (16 mA) pins on Port 1; and brownout detection at 2.35 V. The device supports both parallel programming and serial ISP, and enables IAP-reconfiguring flash while application code runs.

Pinout & Package
Package: TQFP44 (SOT376-1), plastic thin quad flat package, 44 leads, 10 × 10 × 1.0 mm body, 0.8 mm lead pitch.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| P0.0/AD0 – P0.7/AD7 | Port 0 bidirectional I/O / multiplexed address/data bus | Open-drain port used for external memory access (A0–A7/D0–D7); requires external pull-ups for general-purpose I/O. |
| P1.0/T2 – P1.7/SPICLK/CEX4 | Port 1 with alternate functions | Includes Timer2 I/O (P1.0), PCA channels CEX0–CEX4 (P1.3–P1.7), SPI signals (MOSI/MISO/SPICLK), and ECI clock input (P1.2). |
| P2.0/A8 – P2.7/A15 | Port 2 bidirectional I/O / high-order address bus | Provides A8–A15 during external memory access; internal pull-ups enable use as general-purpose I/O when not addressing. |
| P3.0/RXD – P3.7/RD | Port 3 with serial/peripheral control functions | Includes UART (RXD/TXD), external interrupts (INT0/INT1), timer inputs (T0/T1), and external memory strobes (WR/RD). |
| RST | Reset input | Active-HIGH reset; two machine cycles required for valid reset; also enters external host mode when combined with PSEN transition. |
| EA | External Access Enable | Strapped HIGH for internal flash execution; tied LOW to enable external program memory fetches. |
| ALE/PROG | Address Latch Enable / programming pulse | Latches P0 address during external memory access; serves as PROG pulse during flash programming; disabled in low-EMI mode. |
| XTAL1/XTAL2 | Crystal oscillator inputs | Supports quartz crystals or resonators up to 40 MHz; internal oscillator circuit eliminates need for external clock source. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| X2 Mode Execution | Enables 6-clock-per-machine-cycle operation-doubling effective throughput at same crystal frequency or cutting EMI by halving clock speed. |
| In-System Programming (ISP) | Allows firmware reprogramming in final product via UART under software control-eliminating need for dedicated programmers in field updates. |
| In-Application Programming (IAP) | Permits flash memory reconfiguration-including bootloader or parameter updates-while application code continues executing. |
| Programmable Counter Array (PCA) | Five independent channels support PWM generation, input capture, software timers, and high-resolution event timing without CPU overhead. |
| Brownout Detection | Hardware reset triggered at 2.35 V supply threshold-prevents erratic operation and flash corruption during undervoltage conditions. |
| Low-EMI Mode | ALE inhibit function reduces radiated emissions by disabling address latch pulses-critical for EMC-compliant industrial designs. |
Applications
| Industrial Motor Control | Smart Sensor Node |
|---|---|
|

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 8-bit microcontroller applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT89C51ED2-RLTUM | 512 B RAM, 64 kB flash, 5 V operation, no X2 mode, different ISP protocol. | Requires voltage translation for 3 V systems; lacks low-EMI ALE disable and PCA flexibility. | Choose only if 5 V supply and legacy Atmel toolchain compatibility are mandatory. |
| STC89C52RC-PDIP40 | 8 kB flash, 512 B RAM, 5 V operation, no IAP, PLCC40 package. | Insufficient flash for complex protocols; incompatible pinout and voltage prevents drop-in use. | Select only for cost-sensitive, low-feature 5 V designs where ISP suffices and IAP is unnecessary. |
Compared with AT89C51ED2-RLTUM and STC89C52RC-PDIP40, the P89LV51RC2BN,112 provides optimal balance of 32 kB flash, 3 V operation, X2 performance scaling, and full IAP capability-making it uniquely suited for industrial upgrades requiring field-upgradable firmware without hardware redesign.

FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the P89LV51RC2BN,112?
The P89LV51RC2BN,112 supports operation up to 33 MHz at 3 V. When using the X2 mode, it achieves twice the instruction throughput of standard 80C51 at the same crystal frequency-enabling effective 66 MHz-equivalent performance without increasing EMI. The device is rated for frequencies up to 40 MHz in extended testing but guarantees 33 MHz operation across −40 °C to +85 °C.
Does the P89LV51RC2BN,112 support in-application programming (IAP)?
Yes, the P89LV51RC2BN,112 fully supports IAP. Its dual-flash-block architecture allows the user application to execute from Block 0 while invoking routines from Block 1 to reprogram flash sectors-including updating itself-without halting operation. This capability is implemented via documented SFR registers (FCF, DPS) and requires no external hardware or debugger connection.
What package type does the P89LV51RC2BN,112 use?
The P89LV51RC2BN,112 uses the TQFP44 package (SOT376-1): a 10 × 10 × 1.0 mm plastic thin quad flat package with 44 leads and 0.8 mm pitch. It is distinct from PLCC44 variants (e.g., P89LV51RB2BA) and requires PCB land patterns compliant with JEDEC MO-220 specifications.
How does the X2 mode affect power consumption and EMI in the P89LV51RC2BN,112?
In X2 mode, the P89LV51RC2BN,112 executes instructions in six clock cycles instead of twelve-allowing either doubled performance at the same frequency or halved crystal frequency for identical throughput. Reducing clock frequency directly lowers dynamic power and radiated EMI, especially critical in noise-sensitive industrial environments where ALE and bus transitions dominate emissions.
Can the P89LV51RC2BN,112 be used as a direct replacement for older 8051 microcontrollers?
The P89LV51RC2BN,112 maintains full 80C51 instruction set and memory map compatibility, making it suitable for retrofitting legacy 8051 designs. However, pin-level compatibility depends on package: the TQFP44 variant matches other TQFP44 8051 derivatives, but differs from DIP40 or PLCC44 footprints. Firmware porting typically requires only minor linker script and clock initialization updates.
