Nokia introduced Slam Technology to share files

Nokia is always considered the leading innovator in smartphone market. When Nokia launched low range Asha series phones, they also added new feature - 'Slam' a new way to share content over Bluetooth. The Nokia Asha 205 and Nokia 206 became the first Mobile Phones devices to include Nokia's exclusive Slam feature.

Slam technology is similar to Bluetooth that allows the user to share multimedia content with nearby friends almost instantly. But, it does not need to pair devices in range, and without the recipient needing to also have Slam. Unfortunately, it is not compatible with iOS and Windows OS based devices.

How does it works:

- Nokia's Slam technology does not need of paring with devices in range. It just start sending files when the devices are brought near to each other. It uses the system of detection of the proximity of the device to which the data has to be sent, and determine the strength of the Bluetooth signal for proper sharing. When two devices are brought near to each (enough to start sharing), the devices automatically transfer the files. In this case, the receiver does not necessary to have Slam feature. He can do it by Bluetooth enabled device. And if the devices were previously verified each other, then they no need to verify the connection. The device will do sharing without the permission of the user.

Nokia Slam has the advantage over Bluetooth devices that is being able to communicate in a very rapid with any Bluetooth terminal, simplifying the necessary operation to establish communication between the two device as required in conventional Bluetooth devices.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor. Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop program function in which Delay() funct...
