Looking for C code for ATmega8 USART

Hi, i make project PC thermometer, I use ATmega8, senzor LM35CZ, MAX 233..., I can`t find code in C for USART, can somebody help me? I know now if I must use internal oscilator or external krystal. PLease help...

atmega8 usart

search avrfreaks.net tutorials, There u can find how to use USART

Read it, try it out, comeup with questions if you have problem

You can search the Application Notes from ATMEL.

Using the AVR UART in C: http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc1451.pdf and the code: http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/avr306.zip

The complete list of Application Notes is here: http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/app_notes.asp?family_id=607

I hope this help.
Regards, Diego.

usart atmega8

do you accept codevision codes ?

if yes tell me and i will upload a full example for u and dont forget to press helped me

rs232 atmega8

yes i acept it thank you very much
you can upload coplete code ??? wow
that could be fine

P.S. sorry i am Slovak, i cant so good speak English :|

uart atmega8

Hi, i need help. I use external crystal 7,3728 MHz for comunnication USART (atmega8) and for connection i need 2xcondenzator 22pF. Is it correct?

My calculation when i use crystal: 7.3728 MHz, 9600 baud rate gives UBRR = 47 and no error. its allright? If not, please help.

atmega8 uart example

Look out at atmega 8 datasheet you will find ubr setting for commonly used crystals with error percentage in detail.

I use AVR Studio and I need now set internal oscillator to 8MHz with baud rate 9600, value of UBRR=51. Pls help... I AVR STUDIO i set this on picture 1 and 2

here is my code: (only trying USART)
#include <avr/io.h>
#include <inttypes.h>

void USARTInit(uint16_t ubrr_value)
{
UBRRL = ubrr_value;
UBRRH = (ubrr_value>>8);
UCSRC=(1<<URSEL)|(1<<UCSZ0)|(1<<UCSZ1);
UCSRB=(1<<RXEN)|(1<<TXEN);
UCSRA=(1<<U2X);
}

char USARTReadChar()
{
while(!(UCSRA & (1<<RXC)))
{
}
return UDR;
}


void USARTWriteChar(char data)
{
while(!(UCSRA & (1<<UDRE)))
{
}
UDR=data;
}

int main(void)
{

int i = 0;
int a = 0;

USARTInit(51); //UBRR = 51

while(1)
{
USARTWriteChar('q');
for(i = 0; i < 300; i++)
{
a = 10;
}
}
}

Hai

Using internal 8MHz oscillator you will get error, try using 7.3728 external crystal.

the setting you show in your picture is for setting stk500 boards oscillator. It has nothing to do with your controller.

Selecting internal or external oscillator is done with fuse setting.

Selecting Baud rate has to be done in your code

uart atmega8 code

dear all,

sorry for being late but here is the usart codevision project and the proteus simulation too

Re: ATmega8 RS232

Hey all.

I am trying to do something similar. I have an atMega168 and an STK500. I have a 7.3728 external crystal as well. I'm not sure if the STK500 has its own crystal (the instructions aren't clear).

I'm using sample code for an Interrupt controlled UART library.

In AVR studio 4 I assume i set the fuse for an external crystal between 3 and 8 but i'm not sure what other setting (there are several). Also, would i need to multiply down the frequency?

Very new to this. Very confused.

Basically, right now I am just trying to read a serial message that is 9600 8 bits, n, stop bit. Based on the byte read, i want to turn on the corresponding leds on the STK500.

Hey I need help in programing atmega serial interface...i don't know how...i get signal from icp1 pin and i have to transmit it to the serial interface...please help...it's urgent and I'm not good at programming.i'm using an 4 MHz crystal

Re: atmega8 rs-232

Dear microcon555,
I was working with the atmega8L micro-controller using the internal oscillator 1MHz and baud rate of 2500, but now I would like to use an external crystal 8MHz "or higher either up to 20MH" with baud rate 9600. I use the AVR Studio v4.18 to write my code and I have the Genius G840 programmer I use to burn the .hex file to the micro-controller using the G840 software. the only problem is that I don't know how to set the fuses with this prgrammer, I know the UBRRL = 0xFD and UBRRH = 0xD9 values from Engbedded AVR Fuse Calculator by selecting the Ext. Crystal/Resonator Medium Freq.; Start-up time 16K CK +64 ms; [CKSEL=1101 SUT=11] from the drop down menu. So can you help me set the fuses using the Genius G840 programmer.

Another issue "for another project" is that I have another micro-controller atmega8L that I want to use it's internal oscillator of 8MHz with baud rate 9600 in the UART but when I program it and test it nothing is coming out of the TX and nothing is going into the RX even though I enabled the TX and RX in the code and I doubled checked the hyperterminal setting with baud rate 9600, databit 8, parity none, stop bit 1, and flow control none. The power LED works fine though, any idea what could be the problem:
