I was trying to set my atmega48 to use internal 128kHz clock (CKSEL fuse) through AVR studio but I guess I accidentally locked myself out from programming the chip. I tried all ISP clock speed but had no luck with that. Here's the screenshot: http://www.stanford.edu/~wonghoi/atmega48lockout.png Can anybody suggest what has happened and how can I gain access back to the chip? I couldn't p...

I tried posting this once before but I think it was rejected because of inline images, i'll try posting it again with links to the images: I have a 6 layered sam9260 board and I'm seeing something strange on the 18Mhz clock. This is a scan from the SAM9260-EK (reference) board, when there's any data written to the dataflash, a probe on the crystal shows this pattern. (notice the slight...

Hello Group, While reading some requirement specification I came across a term called "sleep clock". I know it it related to a power saving mechanism. I but I am not sure how it works exactly. Is it some kind of gating mechanism where the processor controlling the system power distribution, gives out a signal to suggest to other peripherals on the PCB to go in power down mode? -Kaustub...

Hi! I'm trying to have the BasicGraphicDisplay sample (provided on Atmel C with the eval board) working on my board. I believe some of the example provided with the board only apply to the DK, not the EK. But since al the hardware is here (clock generator and display controller), this on should work. When I ran the program, I received this message : "ICS1523 Clock Generator Init failed"...

Hi, Is there any smart way to pass data thru different clock domains in CPLD chips (without internal RAM for fifo) without using additional chips like external async fifo ? I'm using Xilinx's XC95 chips, but I can pick something else. -- voices (at) zrgnyyvpenva (dot) pbz [ROT13]

Hello, I am trying to interface an MPC5554 procesor with 68HC908 processor using SPI ( Serial Peripheral interface). MPC5554 is the Master CPU. I have little experience in configuring the SPI in low level. I would like to know the following. 1. What are the factors that I should consider while selecting the Clock Polarity and Clock Phase? In my case both Master and Slave CPUs sup...

I have an issue with the baud rate clock on a AT91SAM7S processor. The processor will run from an external 18.432MHz crystal and run at this frequency or will divide this down to 1.152MHz when it is required to run in low power mode. We also need to use the USART and do not want to loose any characters that are currently being received when we we switch over clock frequency. We also which a...

Hi Group I am designing a frequency synthesizer that produces a 12.288 MHz clock from a 8 kHz input clock. I was thinking about using a 74HC4046A VCO/PLL in combination with at 74HC4059 divider, but I'm not too happy about it. For one thing I only have a 3V power supply, and the 4046A requires 3.0V to function. Another thing is that at 3.0 V, the 12.288 MHz is rather close to the upper f...

Hi all I have a problem using the I2C module found within the WIZ C. I need the clock (SCL) to be less than 100kHz. The manual says that there is a constant named IIStretch that enables the user to elongate the Data and clock pulses with the integer set by this constant. This is done because as a default the WIZ C transmits data at 400KHz. Howewver, this is not working since I verified wit...

Hi! I am trying to implement a software real-time clock on the HC12 using the timer module. I am pretty much unable to do it at this point and was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction -- perhaps even coded examples that could serve as a way to better understand it. I need to keep track of a 24 hour day, no need for any actual dates. I can code using either assembler or...

I have a 6 layered sam9260 board and I'm seeing something strange on the 18Mhz clock. This is a scan from the SAM9260-EK (reference) board, when there's any data written to the dataflash, a probe on the crystal shows this pattern.

Could someone explain how I would go about determining if a particular SDR SDRAM (not DDR) is compatible with a CPU, AT91SAM9260 for example. The cpu's Master Clock (MCK) runs at 100MHz which is the speed at which the SDRAM controller clock (SDCK) also runs. Does this automatically mean I should be looking for only PC100 rated SDR SDRAM? Any pointers would help the rest of us noobs out ...

Could my application have a problem of noise, i.e., transient sensitivity? Does having 100k or 200k to +5v on the inputs/outputs reduce noise sensitivity? Putting small capacitance to ground and/or high resistance on the inputs/outputs to +5v help, except for the programming clock and data and VPP. And reducing the clock frequency feeding the program counter. Richard Matsui

Specifically which MCU that can boot Linux has the lowest operating power? I imagine it would be a low-clock arm, I intend to lower the clock further for my application. I'm hoping for less than 15mW at 3V, more like 5mW if at all possible. LCD controller preferable but beside that and IO lines no other options required. Has any company come out with low-power series of 32-bit MCUs? I coul...

Hi all, i'am hunting this problem since a couple of days ... All I need is are 2 synchronous serial data-streams for my selfmade modulator. the clock phase must be in synch. My idea was to use a master spi to generate the master stream and a spi slave module as second generator that is clocked by the clock out put from the first master. For the first I use USART in master spi mode. fo...
