Impleting USART on XC888-CM-8FFA with XC800LQFP easy kit

[ddr123ab]

xc888

I was trying to send something to the hyperterminal using the USART. Below is the of the sample code i try. This is the setting of the the hyperterminal: 9600bps baud rate, 0 stop bit, parity bit none and flow control none. But nothing come out in the hyperterminal. Please Help.

Please add me msn at ddp213@hotmail.com if u can help. Thanks.

#include "MAIN.H"

void MAIN_vInit(void)

UART_vInit();
IP = 0x00;
IPH = 0x00;
IP1 = 0x00;
IPH1 = 0x00;

Hi, I am Giuliano from Rome, Italy
I am developping a XC888 board with a Assembler programming and I try to help you if you are still interesting ...

1) Are you using either internal or external oscillator ? Because if you connect an external xtal, the BRG register must be programmed with a different value depending on that frequency

2) When your program is running can you monitor with a scope if a serial signal is generate ?

3) If yes at point 2) check if the relevant period is correct (i.e. @9600bit/s any bit period is about 100µs long) or either major / minor of this value and correct the BRG register value

If you need more help try to write to ggalt@libero.it
