89V51RD2 is 8 bit microcontroller from 8051 family. This is
made by NXP (Philips) and considered as entry level microcontroller for
learning and product designing. ATMEL’s 89C51 or 89S52 are also pin as well as
code compatible microcontrollers for 89V51RD2. In other words 89S51, 89C51,
89S52, 89C52 and 89V51RD2 can be replace each other, with certain restrictions.
These microcontrollers have different memory size and have some unique features
of their own. Thus blind replacement of these controllers is not possible.
