[SOLVED] problem with atmega32

[eng-ahm]

I have a problem with the usart of the atmega32a chip .
I write a program to send text to a serial port but I received the data in a different format like ĆĆĆĆĆĆĆĆ
please help me
this is my program

#include <avr/io.h>
#include <util/delay.h>
#define USART_BAUDRATE 9600
#define F_CPU 4000000
#define BAUD_PRESCALE (((F_CPU / (USART_BAUDRATE * 16UL))) - 1)


void usart_init (void)
{
	 UCSRB |= (1 << RXEN) | (1 << TXEN);   
	 UCSRC |= (1 << URSEL) | (1 << UCSZ0) | (1 << UCSZ1); 
	 UBRRL = BAUD_PRESCALE;
	 UBRRH = (BAUD_PRESCALE >> 8); 

}
void usart_send (unsigned char cht)
{
	while(! (UCSRA & (1<<UDRE)));
	UDR=cht;
}

int main(void)
{
	unsigned char str[30]="a b c d e f g h";
	unsigned char x;
	unsigned char strlength=30;
	unsigned char i=0;
	usart_init();
    _delay_ms(500);
	while(1)
	{  
		usart_send(str[i++]);
		if (i >= strlength)
		i = 0;
		
	}
	return 0;
}

Is there MAX232 between MCU and PC? Are you sending data from MCU to hyperterminal? If yes, the baudrate in MCU code and hyperterminal is not matching or the data is inverted. MAX232 inverts the data.

THANK YOU jayanth.devarayanadurga

In your code you have

---

Code C - [expand]
1
unsigned char str[30]="a b c d e f g h";

---

which is wrong. The characters should be seperated by commas and each character should be enclosed in single quotes like

---

Code C - [expand]
1
unsigned char str[30]={'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h'};

---

and if it is a string then you should terminate it with '\0' as the last element.

That is not wrong, it all depends on what you want to do.

unsigned char str[30]="a b c d e f g h";

is the equivalent of

unsigned char str[30]={'a',' ','b',' ','c',' ','d',' ','e',' ','f',' ','g',' ','h',0};

where 0 is the null termination ('\0')

- - - Updated - - -

By the way, character arrays should be declares as char to avoid warnings when you try to use the array with standard C functions that expect a char array

char str[30]="a b c d e f g h";

Yes. You are right alexan_e. I didn't see double quotes. I thought it as 'abcdefgh' and not "abcdefgh". My mistake. It is right to assign a string to a string variable and compiler adds the null character automatically to the end of the string.
