The product line includes MCS-51® industry standard socket drop-in devices, In-System Programming capability, and small footprint 20-pin derivatives in ROMless, ROM, OTP & Flash flavors (see on-line selection table).

Smart Card Readers
USB Applications
Atmel also offers 8/16 bit microcontrollers based on the powerful C251 architecture. Our C251 devices allow a direct and easy performance increase by upgrading existing 80C51-based applications.

Should we create a forum for foreign language so people can post in their native languages?

Right now our rules are "English Only". but if we have moderators who are willing to work in Chinese, then maybe we should revisit this rule?

That depends on your wish and whether we have potentially a Chinese-speaking community of an adequate size to support a separate area of the forums serving non-English speaking users. For now, the community must be small here because this forum has been English-only from the very beginning. So, even if you decide to open up forums in other languages, it is discreet not to expect a surge in activity within a foreseeable period of time.

If you think this is okay, I shall be willing to help enforce the forum rules there, as you have previously sought our opinions on this matter.
