This document describes the pinout of the 8051 microcontroller. It lists the 40 pins of the 8051 and provides a brief description of the functions of some of the most important pins including ports P0-P3, the reset pin, oscillator pins, VCC, interrupt and counter pins, and pins for interfacing with external memory. The pins allow the 8051 to interface with external devices and memory and function as either inputs or outputs to expand its capabilities.
