Well, honey, a PIC controller typically has a faster execution speed and lower power consumption compared to an 8051. Plus, PIC controllers often have a larger variety of peripherals and are more cost-effective for certain applications. But hey, at the end of the day, it all depends on what you need for your project, so pick your poison wisely.

The Pic Controller has many advantages over a 8051. The main advantage is the editing capabilities. Another advantage is the high resolution.
architecture
Answer It is both 8 bit processors in a 40 pin package but it is not pin compatible, it have almost the same functions but it is very difficult to compare the two because it is not the same family.
8051 is an old microcontroller design. It has been updated and expanded into a family of microcontrollers manufactured by several companies. PIC is not a microcontroller, but is an extensive family of microcontrollers designed and manufactured by Microchip, Inc. Both are quite popular, and there are many other microcontrollers available.
