The Small Device C Compiler (SDCC) is a free-software, partially retargetablecite-ref-1[1] C compiler for 8-bit microcontrollers. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License. The package also contains an assembler, linker, simulator and debugger. SDCC is a popular open-source C compiler for microcontrollers compatible with Intel 8051/MCS-51.cite-ref-2[2]cite-ref-3[3]cite-ref-4[4]

The most noteworthy open source solution is the Small Device C Compiler (SDCC)."

This is unquestionably the poor man's choice of 8051 C compilers, ... in any case, sdcc is perfectly adequate for hobbyist, low-volume and/or educational projects."
