Upgrade EW8051 8.20 to 8.20.2

Published March 5, 2013.

This service pack has been made to address the following:

  • A bug fix caused the compiler to generate more code when moving 8-bit data from __data to __data memory and from __idata to __data memory.

  • The source browser did not recognize the __sfr keyword making it impossible to use go-to-definition and go-to-declaration.

  • Fixed a problem when you got a fatal error when selecting CY7C68xxx Cypress devices.
