About the 8051 Standalone Dev Board

8051 Standalone Dev Board is an open source PCB design by anshukumar146, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 54.6 × 52.3 mm, with 24 components from 17 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the 8051. By type, the board carries 8 capacitors, 6 connectors, 5 resistors, 2 ICs, 1 crystal and 1 switch.

It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.

From the project

A compact, self-contained development board for the 8051 microcontroller family (AT89x51xxP), designed in KiCad — built to run 8051 firmware on the bench with nothing more than a barrel-jack power supply and a USB-to-serial adapter.

A compact, self-contained development board for the 8051 microcontroller family (AT89x51xxP), designed in KiCad — built to run 8051 firmware on the bench with nothing more than a barrel-jack power supply and a USB-to-serial adapter.

Purpose This repository contains the full KiCad design (schematic, PCB layout, and fabrication outputs) for a standalone 8051 development board. It's built around the classic AT89x51xxP DIP-40 microcontroller and includes on-board power regulation, a crystal oscillator, reset circuitry, and breakout headers — everything needed to power up and program an 8051…
