I am presently assembling my first micrcontroller project.
I programmed the microcontroller with an instruction that would toggle the pin P0.2 every 5 seconds.
I connected VCC and EA to 5v supply. pins 18 & 19 to a 12 MHz crystal coupled with 30pF capacitors.
The first set of instructions before toggling the pin (P0.2) clears the four ports.
I connected pin 20 to the ground.
Whenever I power up the Microcontroller, port0 is always at logic zero but pins in other ports assume random values. Resetting the microcontroller by placing pin 9 high for about 2 seconds makes no difference.
Placing the pins of all ports in various logic levels does not change them from their actual values.
Please I would appreciate all suggestions and possible source of solution.
Thanks
