Problem with serial communications between ATmega128 and PC I have used WinAVR and Peter Fleury's interrupt controlled uart library successfully in the past with the STK500 board and the AT90S8515 and ATmega16 devices. Moving on to a bigger project I purchased the STK501 board with an ATmega128. Connecting it to the STK500 I can program the device with the default xmas_tree_leds_flashing ...

Folks, I'm doing performance measurements on our MCU based RFID reader. The very problem I'm facing is redundancy of tag ID (say 12 bytes) transmission, every time my MCU receives a tag ID; will just push that ID to UART without any prior knowledge of that it is sending the same ID again and again. (Due to poor designs of RFID tag protocols single tag can response its ID repeate...

Hi, I'm finding it hard to locate a suitable device for a new design of mine. The hypothetical part would be a PCI Express endpoint (x1, rev 1 or rev 2) to two host ports of UsB2. I've looked at: - Renesas/NEC ?PD720200 (2xUSB3) - PLX OXPCIe200 (2xUSB2+UART+GPIO) - Pericom PI7C9X442SL (4xUSB2) - Moschip MCS9990 (4xUSB2+GPIO) These would all do the job, however they are either

What sensible methods do people use to implement SPI slave comms on AVR micros? I'm specifically working with the ATtiny26L right now. I'm currently using a software approach, with the select line connected to an int-on-change pin. When that int comes in, I read the state of the pin and if it's high, I turn off the USI UART and set MISO to input mode so it doesn't interfere with other devic...

I am helping to port Mecrisp Forth to the PSOC and am having trouble loading my program to the eval board. I am using the $4 CY8CKit-49-42xx board with the more functional 4245 device.

This is firmware on the board that accepts commands to flash a pro...

I'm trying to find a way to make a connection between a custom MCU-based device (accessory) and an Android device (smartphone or tablet). The goal is to exchange some data as with the old and good asyncronous serial (RS232/UART/RS485). My goal is to let the user configure the device through its smartphone, without power up a laptop or using local HMI (that will be surely worse than An...

We have developed a prototype board and software for the PC to program and test code for the Philips 89LPC901FN (8 pin DIP). Currently it only works with the 901 DIP because we think that will be the easiest chip to prototype circuits with for possible novices. The 901 does not have a hardware UART but can be bit banged. It uses a second 901 to talk to the program via serial port, (bit ...

I am about to develop a Compact Flash I/O device for PDA (DELL AXIM). Fortunately I found a CF interface chipset with a UART port (Oxford Ox950). Now I got a few questions about the firmware design. 1) For the PDA side (Using PocketPC2003), I think the PDA already has an "integrated" CF driver inside of PPC2003, right? If I want to rewrite this driver, what should I do? What kind of tools...

Adding a mute toggle to each inp...
