8051 Search Tips
Obviously, no Guide or 8051 Tutorial can ever really keep up-to-date with the information on the Web. Why try? Some might say that Google has all that you need. But while it is true that Google does pretty much index everything about everything, it has its own limitations - notoriously the search words used, and in this section, we make some recommendations about searching for 8051-related information on the Internet.

We have some links to common - 8051-related searches and some pointers about how they might be improved. But before that, here are some links to some other ways to search the Web for 8051-related information - resources that you may not have thought about.

Other publications include:
