to be a server. Erik Malund said:
I doubt that can be done with a '51. That depends on exactly what you want to "Serve" from the '51. In HTTP terms, the thing that responds to requests is called the "server", and the thing that initiates the requests is called the "client" An 8051 is perfectly capable of implementing a web (http) server! There are plenty of examples of small 8-bit microcontrollers (including '51s) implementing simple web servers so that, for example, you can type the appropriate IP address into your web browser and see a temperature reading (say) displayed as a web page by the 8051! In this case, the PC is being the Client, and the small 8-bit microcontroller is being the Server! It is unfortunate that this is contrary to the general idea of a "Server" as a large computer system! |
