That's quite an old device. I used controllers of that familiy in 1990.
Are you sure that it is worth while to start with that veteran of 16-bit controllers ?

Or with any Intel over priced under powered Micro for that matter...

)Oh my gosh I hope I haven't struck a hornets nest with my quill!
The first product I ever built was with an 8048 and I had to have it modify its own code while running gaahhhgurp. It was a sweet little processor. I used a cross compiler Acorn?? A-something anyway that was very nice. Ran on CPM. It all had to fit in one of those round EXP housings.
This was when I started to discover that of all uC makers Intel packed the biggest pile of lies in their cut-sheets. They would tout their 12Mhz clock rate as fabulous, never mind that an instruction took 12 clock cycles while everyone else's took 4. They would say, "but ours runs at 12Mhz!!" And theirs runs at only 8Mhz. Then they started with all the benchmarks... At a glance they where all twisted dreck.. Twas very annoying but actually kinda funny too.
Wow an 8085... We used one in a grain silo depth measuring unit. It wasn't bad but after using a Z80 there was no going back to it. Then on to the Hitachi highly integrated Z80... had a name so long I can't remember it. Started with 64... Had a massively confusing memory management unit in it so you could use 1Meg in a processor with only a 16bit address range.
Ahh.. those weren't the days!
