CodeVisionAVR
CodeVisionAVR is a C cross-compiler, Integrated Development Environment and Automatic Program Generator designed for the Atmel AVR family of microcontrollers.
The program is a native 32bit application that runs under the Windows 95, 98, NT 4, 2000 and XP operating systems.
The C cross-compiler implements nearly all the elements of the ANSI C language, as allowed by the AVR architecture, with some features added to take advantage of specificity of the AVR architecture and the embedded system needs.
The compiled COFF object files can be C source level debugged, with variable watching, using the Atmel AVR Studio debugger.
The Integrated Development Environment (IDE) has built-in AVR Chip In-System Programmer software that enables the automatical transfer of the program to the microcontroller chip after successful compilation/assembly. The In-System Programmer software is designed to work in conjunction with the Atmel STK500/AVRISP, Kanda Systems STK200+/300, Dontronics DT006, Vogel Elektronik VTEC-ISP, Futurlec JRAVR and MicroTronics ATCPU/Mega2000 development boards.
For debugging embedded systems, which employ serial communication, the IDE has a built-in Terminal.
Besides the standard C libraries, the CodeVisionAVR C compiler has dedicated libraries for:
· Alphanumeric LCD modules
· Philips I2C bus
· National Semiconductor LM75 Temperature Sensor
· Philips PCF8563, PCF8583, Dallas Semiconductor DS1302 and DS1307 Real Time Clocks

Opening an Existing Project
You can open an existing Project file using the File|Open menu command or by pressing the Open file button on the toolbar.
An Open dialog window appears.
You must select the file name of the Project you wish to open.
By pressing the Open button you will open the Project file and its source file(s).
You can configure the Project by using the Project|Configure menu command.
Creating a New Project
You can create a new Project using the File|New menu command or by pressing the Create new file button on the toolbar.
A dialog box appears, in which you must select File Type|Project and press the OK button.
A dialog will open asking you to confirm if you would like to use the CodeWizardAVR to create the new project.
If you select No then the Create New Project dialog window will open.
You must specify the new Project file name and its location.
The Project file will have the .prj extension.
You can configure the Project by using the Project|Configure menu command.
Adding or removing a File from the Project
To add or remove a file from the currently opened project you must use the Project|Configure menu command.
A Configure Project tabbed dialog window will open. You must select the Files tab.
By pressing the Add button you can add a source file to the project.
The first file added to the project is the main project file.
This file will always be Maked.
The rest of the files added to the project will be automatically linked to the main project file on Make.
Multiple files can be added by holding the Ctrl key when selecting in the Add File to Project dialog.
When the project is Open-ed all project files will be opened in the editor.
By clicking on a file, and then pressing the Remove button, you will remove this file from the project.
Changes can be saved, respectively canceled, using the OK, respectively Cancel buttons.
When creating a project with multiple files the following rules must be preserved:
· only .C files must be added to the project's Files list
· there's no need to #include the .C files from the Files list as they will be automatically linked
· data type definitions and function declarations must be placed in header .H files, that will be #include -ed as necessary in the .C files
· global variables declarations must be placed in the .C files where necessary
· there's no need to declare global variables, that are not static, in header .H files, because if these files will be #include -ed more than once, the compiler will issue errors about variable redeclarations.
Setting the C Compiler Options
To set the C compiler options for the currently opened project you must use the Project|Configure menu command.
A Configure Project tabbed dialog window will open. You must select the C Compiler and Code Generation tabs.
You can select the target AVR microcontroller chip by using the Chip combo box.
You must also specify the CPU Clock Frequency in MHz, which is needed by the Delay Functions, 1 Wire Protocol Functions and Dallas Semiconductor DS1820/DS18S20 Temperature Sensors Functions .
The required memory model can be selected by using the Memory Model radio group box.
The compiled program can be optimized for minimum size, respectively maximum execution speed, using the Optimize for|Size, respectively Optimize for|Speed, settings.
For devices that allow self-programming the Program Type can be selected as:
· Application
· Boot Loader
If the Boot Loader program type was selected, a supplementary Boot Loader Debugging in AVR Studio option is available.
If this option is enabled, the compiler will generate supplementary code that allows the Boot Loader to be source level debugged in the AVR Studio simulator/emulator.
When programming the chip with the final Boot Loader code, the Boot Loader Debugging option must be disabled.
The (s)printf features option allows to select which versions of the printf and sprintf Standard C Input/Oputput Functions will be linked in your project:
· int - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'p', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X', '%', no width or precision specifiers are supported, only the '+' and ' ' flags are supported, no input size modifiers are supported
· int, width - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'p', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X', '%', the width specifier is supported, the precision specifier is not supported, only the '+', '-', '0' and ' ' flags are supported, no input size modifiers are supported
· long, width - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'p', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X', '%' the width specifier is supported, the precision specifier is not supported, only the '+', '-', '0' and ' ' flags are supported, only the 'l' input size modifier is supported
· long, width, precision - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'p', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X', '%', the width and precision specifiers are supported, only the '+', '-', '0' and ' ' flags are supported, only the 'l' input size modifier is supported
· float, width, precision - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'p', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'e', 'E', 'f', 'x', 'X', '%', the width and precision specifiers are supported, only the '+', '-', '0' and ' ' flags are supported, only the 'l' input size modifier is supported.
The more features are selected, the larger is the code size generated for the printf and sprintf functions.
The (s)scanf features option allows to select which versions of the scanf and sscanf Standard C Input/Oputput Functions will be linked in your project:
· int, width - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', '%', the width specifier is supported, no input size modifiers are supported
· long, width - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', '%' the width specifier is supported, only the 'l' input size modifier is supported.
The more features are selected, the larger is the code size generated for the printf and sprintf functions.
The Data Stack Size must be also specified.
Eventually you may also specify the External SRAM size (in case the microcontroller have external SRAM memory connected).
The External SRAM Wait State option enables the insertion of wait states during access to the external SRAM. This is useful when using slow memory devices.
If an Atmel AT94K05, AT94K10, AT94K20 or AT94K40 FPSLIC device will be used, than there will be the possibility to specify the Program SRAM size in Kwords.
The size of the bit variables, which are placed in registers R2 to R14, can be specified using the Bit Variables size list box.
Checking the Promote char to int check box enables the ANSI promotion of char operands to int.
This option can also be specified using the #pragma promotechar compiler directive.
Promoting char to int leads to increased code size and lower speed for an 8 bit chip microcontroller like the AVR.
If the char is unsigned check box is checked, the compiler treats by default the char data type as an unsigned 8 bit in the range 0…255.
If the check box is not checked the char data type is by default a signed 8 bit in the range –128…127.
This option can also be specified using the #pragma uchar compiler directive.
Treating char as unsigned leads to better code size and speed.
If the 8 bit enums check box is checked, the compiler treats the enumerations as being of 8 bit char data type, leading to improved code size and execution speed of the compiled program. If the check box is not checked the enumerations are considered as 16 bit int data type as required by ANSI.
The Enhanced Instructions check box allows enabling or disabling the generation of Enhanced Core instructions for the ATmega128, ATmega16, ATmega161, ATmega162, ATmega163, ATmega32, ATmega323, ATmega64, ATmega8 and AT94K FPSLIC devices.
The rest of the registers in the range R2 to R14, not used for bit variables, can be automatically allocated to char and int global variables by checking the Compilation|Automatic Register Allocation check box.
An external startup file can be used by checking the Compilation|Use an External Startup File check box.
The generation of warning messages during compilation can be enabled or disabled by using the Compilation|Enable Warnings check box.
For debugging purposes you have the option Stack End Markers. If you select it, the compiler will place the strings DSTACKEND, respectively HSTACKEND, at the end of the Data Stack, respectively Hardware Stack areas.
When you debug the program with AVR Studio you may see if these strings are overwritten, and consequently modify the Data Stack Size.
When your program runs correctly you may disable the placement of the strings in order to reduce code size.
Using the File Output Format(s) list box you can select the following formats for the files generated by the compiler:
· COFF (required by the Atmel AVR Studio debugger), ROM, Intel HEX and EEP (required by the In-System Programmer) ;
· Atmel generic OBJ, ROM, Intel HEX and EEP (required by the In-System Programmer) ;
If the COFF file format is selected and the Use the Terminal I/O in AVR Studio check box is checked, special debugging information is generated in order to use the AVR Studio Terminal I/O window for communication with the simulated AVR chip’s UART.
If the Use the Terminal I/O in AVR Studio option is enabled, the UART or USART code will not run correctly on the real AVR chip. This option is only for debugging purposes.
The Globally #define tab allows to #define macros that will be visible in all the project files.
#define ABC 1234
in each project file.
The Paths tabs allows to specify additional paths for #include and library files.
These paths must be entered one per line in the appropriate edit controls.
Changes can be saved, respectively canceled, using the OK, respectively Cancel buttons.
Working with files
Creating a New File
You can create a new source file using the File|New menu command or by pressing the Create new file button on the toolbar.
A dialog box appears, in which you must select File Type|Source and press the Ok button.
A new editor window appears for the newly created file.
The new file has the name untitled.c. You can save this file under a new name using the File|Save As menu command.

Identifiers
An identifier is the name you give to a variable, function, label or other object.
An identifier can contain letters (A...Z, a...z) and digits (0...9), as well as the underscore character (_).
However an identifier can only start with a letter or an underscore.
Case is significant; i.e. variable1 is not the same as Variable1.
Identifiers can have up to 32 characters.
Data Types
The following table lists all the data types supported by the CodeVisionAVR C compiler, their range of possible values and their size:
Type Size (Bits) Range
bit 1 0 , 1
char 8 -128 to 127
unsigned char 8 0 to 255
signed char 8 -128 to 127
int 16 -32768 to 32767
short int 16 -32768 to 32767
unsigned int 16 0 to 65535
signed int 16 -32768 to 32767
long int 32 -2147483648 to 2147483647
unsigned long int 32 0 to 4294967295
signed long int 32 -2147483648 to 2147483647
float 32 ±1.175e-38 to ±3.402e38
double 32 ±1.175e-38 to ±3.402e38
The bit data type is supported only for global variables.
If the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|char is unsigned option is checked or #pragma uchar+ is used, then char has by default the range 0..255.
Constants
Integer or long integer constants may be written in decimal form (e.g. 1234), in binary form with 0b prefix (e.g. 0b101001), in hexadecimal form with 0x prefix (e.g. 0xff) or in octal form with 0-prefix (e.g. 0777).
Unsigned integer constants may have the suffix U (e.g. 10000U).
Long integer constants may have the suffix L (e.g. 99L).
Unsigned long integer constants may have the suffix UL (e.g. 99UL).
Floating point constants may have the suffix F (e.g. 1.234F).
Character constants must be enclosed in single quotation marks.
String constants must be enclosed in double quotation marks. E.g. "Hello world".
If you place a string between quotes as a function parameter, this string will automatically be considered as constant and will be placed in FLASH memory.
Example:
/ * this function displays a string located in SRAM */
void display_ram(char *s) {
/* ....... */
}
/ * this function displays a string located in FLASH */
void display_flash(char flash *s) {
/* ....... */
}
void main(void) {
/* this will not work !!! */
/* because the function addresses the string as */
/* it is located in SRAM, but the string "Hello world" */
/* is constant and is placed in FLASH */
display_ram("Hello world");
/* this will work !!! */
/* the function addresses the string as it is located in FLASH */
display_flash("Hello world"); }
Constant can be grouped in arrays, which can have up to 8 dimensions.
Constants are stored in FLASH memory, to specify this you must use the flash or const keywords.
Constant expressions are automatically evaluated during compilation.
Example:
flash int integer_constant=1234+5;
flash char char_constant=’a’;
flash long long_int_constant1=99L;
flash long long_int_constant2=0x10000000;
flash int integer_array1[]={1,2,3};
/* The first two elements will be 1 and 2,
the rest will be 0 */
flash int integer_array2[10]={1,2};
flash int multidim_array[2,3]={{1,2,3},{4,5,6}};
flash char string_constant1[]=”This is a string constant”;
const char string_constant2[]=”This is also a string constant”;
Constants can’t be declared inside functions.
Variables
Program variables can be global (accessible to all the functions in the program) or local (accessible only inside the function they are declared).
If not specifically initialized, the global variables are automatically set to 0 at program startup.
The local variables are not automatically initialized on function call.
The syntax is:
[] ;
Example:
/* Global variables declaration */
char a;
int b;
/* and initialization */
long c=1111111;
void main(void) {
/* Local variables declaration */
char d;
int e;
/* and initialization */
long f=22222222;
}
Variables can be grouped in arrays, which can have up to 8 dimensions.
The first element of the array has always the index 0.
If not specifically initialized, the elements of global variable arrays are automatically set to 0 at program startup.
Example:
/* All the elements of the array will be 0 */
int global_array1[32];
/* Array is automatically initialized */
int global_array2[]={1,2,3};
int global_array3[4]={1,2,3,4};
char global_array4[]=”This is a string”;
/* Only the first 3 elements of the array are
initialized, the rest 29 will be 0 */
int global_array5[32]={1,2,3};
/* Multidimensional array */
int multidim_array[2][3]={{1,2,3},{4,5,6}};
void main(void) {
/* local array declaration */
int local_array1[10];
/* local array declaration and initialization */
int local_array2[3]={11,22,33};
char local_array3[7]="Hello";
}
Local variables that must conserve their values during different calls to a function must be declared as static.
Example:
int alfa(void) {
/* declare and initialize the static variable */
static int n=1;
return n++;
}
void main(void) {
int i;
/* the function will return the value 1 */
i=alfa();
/* the function will return the value 2 */
i=alfa();
}
If not specifically initialized, static variables are automatically set to 0 at program startup.
Variables that are declared in other files must be preceded by the extern keyword.
Example:
extern int xyz;
/* now include the file which contains
the variable xyz definition */
#include
To instruct the compiler to allocate a variable to registers, the register modifier must be used.
Example: register int abc;
The compiler may automatically allocate a variable to registers, even if this modifier is not used.
The volatile modifier must be used in order to prevent a variable to be allocated to registers and to warn the compiler that it may be subject to outside change during evaluation.
Example: volatile int abc;
All the global variables, not allocated to registers, are stored in the Global Variables area of SRAM.
All the local variables, not allocated to registers, are stored in dynamically allocated space in the Data Stack area of SRAM.
Specifying the SRAM Storage Address for Global Variables
Global variables can be stored at specific SRAM locations at design-time using the @ operator.
Example:
/* the integer variable "a" is stored
in SRAM at address 80h */
int a @0x80;
/* the structure "alfa" is stored
in SRAM at address 90h */
struct x {
int a;
char c;
} alfa @0x90;
Bit Variables
The bit variables are special global variables located in the register R2 to R14 memory space.
These variables are declared using the bit keyword.
The syntax is:
bit ;
Example:
/* declaration and initialization */
bit alfa=1; /* bit0 of R2 */
bit beta; /* bit1 of R2 */
void main(void)
{
if (alfa) beta=!beta;
/* ........ */
}
Memory allocation for the bit variables is done, in the order of declaration, starting with bit 0 of R2, then bit 1 of R2 and so on, in ascending order.
A number of maximum 104 bit variables can be declared.
The size of the bit variables allocated to the program can be specified in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Bit Variables Size list box.
This size should be as low as possible, in order to free registers for allocation to other global variables.
If not specifically initialized, the bit global variables are automatically set to 0 at program startup.
In expression evaluation bit variables are automatically promoted to unsigned char.
Allocation of Variables to Registers
In order to fully take advantage of the AVR architecture and instruction set, the compiler allocates some of the program variables to chip registers.
The registers from R2 up to R14 can be allocated for bit variables.
You may specify how many registers in this range are allocated using the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Bit Variables Size list box. This value must be as low as required by the program.
If the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Automatic Register Allocation option is checked or the #pragma regalloc+ compiler directive is used, the rest of registers in the R2 to R14 range, that aren’t used for bit variables, are allocated to char and int global variables. The allocation is realized in order of variable declaration until the R14 register is allocated.
If the automatic register allocation is disabled, you can use the register keyword to specify which global variable to be allocated to registers.
Example:
/* disable automatic register allocation */
#pragma regalloc-
/* allocate the variable ‘alfa’ to a register */
register int alfa;
/* allocate the variable ‘beta’ to the register pair R10, R12 */
register int beta @10;
The char and int local variables are automatically allocated, in order of declaration, to registers R16 up to R21.
Structures
Structures are user-defined collections of named members.
The structure members can be any of the supported Data Types, arrays of these data types or pointers to them.
Structures are defined using the struct reserved keyword.
The syntax is:
[] struct [] {
[ [,, ...]];
[ []:[,[]:, ...]];
...
} [];
Example:
/* Global structure located in SRAM */
struct ram_structure {
char a,b;
int c;
char d[30],e[10];
char *pp;
} sr;
/* Global constant structure located in FLASH */
flash struct flash_structure {
int a;
char b[30], c[10];
} sf;
/* Global structure located in EEPROM */
eeprom struct eeprom_structure
{
char a;
int b;
char c[15];
} se;
void main(void) {
/* Local structure */
struct local_structure {
char a;
int b;
long c;
} sl;
/* ............. */
}
The space allocated to the structure in memory is equal to sum of the sizes of all the members.
There are some restrictions that apply to the structures stored in FLASH.
Because with the Atmel AVRASM32 Assembler single bytes defined with .DB in FLASH occupy in reality 2 bytes, the CodeVisionAVR C compiler will replace the char members of structures stored in FLASH with int.
Also it will extend the size of the char arrays, members of such structures, to an even value.
Structures can be grouped in unidimensional arrays.
Example how to initialize and access an global structure array stored in EEPROM:
/* Global structure array located in EEPROM */
eeprom struct eeprom_structure {
char a;
int b;
char c[15];
} se[2]={{'a',25,"Hello"},
{'b',50,"world"}};
void main(void) {
char k1,k2,k3,k4;
int i1, i2;
/* declare a pointer to the structure */
struct eeprom_structure eeprom *ep;
/* direct access to structure members */
k1=se[0].a;
i1=se[0].b;
k2=se[0].c[2];
k3=se[1].a;
i2=se[1].b;
k4=se[1].c[2];
/* same access to structure members using a pointer */
ep=&se; /* initialize the pointer with the structure address */
k1=ep->a;
i1=ep->b;
k2=ep->c[2];
++ep; /* increment the pointer */
k3=ep->a;
i2=ep->b;
k4=ep->c[2];
}
Because some AVR devices have a small amount of SRAM, in order to keep the size of the Data Stack small, it is recommended not to pass structures as function parameters and use pointers for this purpose.
Example:
struct alpha {
int a,b, c;
} s={2,3};
/* define the function */
struct alpha *sum_struct(struct alpha *sp) {
/* member c=member a + member b */
sp->c=sp->a + sp->b;
/* return a pointer to the structure */
return sp;
}
void main(void) {
int i;
/* s->c=s->a + s->b */
/* i=s->c */
i=sum_struct(&s)->c;
}
Structure elements can be also declared as bit fields, having a width from 1 to 32.
Bit fields are allocated in the order of declaration starting from the least significant bit.
Example:
/* this structure will occupy 1 byte in SRAM
as the bit field data type is unsigned char */
struct alpha1 {
unsigned char a:1; /* bit 0 */
unsigned char b:4; /* bits 1..4 */
unsigned char c:3; /* bits 5..7 */
};
/* this structure will occupy 2 bytes in SRAM
as the bit field data type is unsigned int */
struct alpha2 {
unsigned int a:2; /* bits 0..1 */
unsigned int b:8; /* bits 2..9 */
unsigned int c:4; /* bits 10..13 */
/* bits 14..15 are not used */
};
/* this structure will occupy 4 bytes in SRAM
as the bit field data type is unsigned long */
struct alpha3 {
unsigned long a:10; /* bits 0..9 */
unsigned long b:8; /* bits 10..17 */
unsigned long c:6; /* bits 18..23 */
/* bits 24..31 are not used */
};
Unions
Unions are user-defined collections of named members that share the same memory space.
The union members can be any of the supported Data Types, arrays of these data types or pointers to them.
Unions are defined using the union reserved keyword.
The syntax is:
[] union [] {
[ [,, ...]];
[ :[,:, ...]];
...
} [];
Unions are always stored in SRAM.
The space allocated to the union in memory is equal to the size of the largest member.
Union members can be accessed in the same way as structure members.
Example:
/* union declaration */
union alpha {
unsigned char lsb;
unsigned int word;
} data;
void main(void) {
unsigned char k;
/* declare a pointer to the union */
union alpha *dp;
/* direct access to union members */
data.word=0x1234;
k=data.lsb; /* get the LSB of 0x1234 */
/* same access to union members using a pointer */
dp=&data; /* initialize the pointer with the union address */
dp->word=0x1234;
k=dp->lsb; /* get the LSB of 0x1234 */
}
Because some AVR devices have a small amount of SRAM, in order to keep the size of the Data Stack small, it is recommended not to pass unions as function parameters and use pointers for this purpose.
Example:
#include /* printf */
union alpha {
unsigned char lsb;
unsigned int word;
} data;
/* define the function */
unsigned char low(union alpha *up) {
/* return the LSB of word */
return up->lsb;
}
void main(void) {
data.word=0x1234;
printf("the LSB of %x is %2x",data.word,low(&data));
}
Union elements can be also declared as bit fields, having a width from 1 to 32.
Bit fields are allocated in the order of declaration starting from the least significant bit.
Example:
/* this union will occupy 1 byte in SRAM
as the bit field data type is unsigned char */
union alpha1 {
unsigned char a:1; /* bit 0 */
unsigned char b:4; /* bits 0..3 */
unsigned char c:3; /* bits 0..2 */
};
/* this union will occupy 2 bytes in SRAM
as the bit field data type is unsigned int */
union alpha2 {
unsigned int a:2; /* bits 0..1 */
unsigned int b:8; /* bits 0..7 */
unsigned int c:4; /* bits 0..3 */
/* bits 8..15 are not used */
};
/* this union will occupy 4 bytes in SRAM
as the bit field data type is unsigned long */
union alpha3 {
unsigned long a:10; /* bits 0..9 */
unsigned long b:8; /* bits 0..7 */
unsigned long c:6; /* bits 0..5 */
/* bits 10..31 are not used */
};
Enumerations
The enumeration data type can be used in order to provide mnemonic identifiers for a set of char or int values.
The enum keyword is used for this purpose.
The syntax is:
[] enum [] {
[[[=constant-initializer],, ...]]}
[];
Example:
/* The enumeration constants will be initialized as follows:
sunday=0 , monday=1 , tuesday=2 ,..., saturday=6 */
enum days {
sunday, monday, tuesday, wednesday,
thursday, friday, saturday} days_of_week;
/* The enumeration constants will be initialized as follows:
january=1 , february=2 , march=3 ,..., december=12 */
enum months {
january=1, february, march, april, may, june,
july, august, september, october, november, december}
months_of_year;
void main {
/* the variable days_of_week is initialized with
the integer value 6 */
days_of_week=saturday;
}
Enumerations can be stored in SRAM or EEPROM.
To specify the storage in EEPROM, the eeprom keyword must be used.
Example:
eeprom enum days {

It is recommended to treat enumerations as having 8 bit char data type, by checking the 8 bit enums check box in Project|Configure|Compiler|Code Generation. This will improve the size and execution speed of the compiled program.
Global Variables Memory Map File
During compilation the C compiler generates a Global Variables Memory Map File, in which are specified the SRAM address location, register allocation and size of the global variables used by the program.
This file has the .map extension and can be viewed using the menu File|Open command or by pressing the Open button on the toolbar.
Structure and union members are listed individually along with their corresponding address and size.
This file is useful during program debugging using the AVR Studio debugger.
Type Conversions
In an expression, if the two operands of a binary operator are of different types, then the compiler will convert one of the operands into the type of the other.
The compiler uses the following rules:
If either of the operands is of type float then the other operand is converted to the same type.
If either of the operands is of type long int or unsigned long int then the other operand is converted to the same type.
Otherwise, if either of the operands is of type int or unsigned int then the other operand is converted to the same type.
Thus char type or unsigned char type gets the lowest priority.
Using casting you can change these rules.
Example:
void main(void) {
int a, c;
long b;
/* The long integer variable b will be treated here as an
integer */
c=a+(int) b;
}
It is important to note that if the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Promote char to int option isn't checked or the #pragma promotechar+ isn't used, the char, respectively unsigned char, type operands are not automatically promoted to int , respectively unsigned int, as in compilers targeted for 16 or 32 bit CPUs.
This helps writing more size and speed efficient code for an 8 bit CPU like the AVR.
To prevent overflow on 8 bit addition or multiplication, casting may be required.
The compiler issues warnings in these situations.
Example:
void main(void) {
unsigned char a=30;
unsigned char b=128;
unsigned int c;
/* This will generate an incorrect result, because the multiplication
is done on 8 bits producing an 8 bit result, which overflows.
Only after the multiplication, the 8 bit result is promoted to
unsigned int */
c=a*b;
/* Here casting forces the multiplication to be done on 16 bits,
producing an 16 bit result, without overflow */
c=(unsigned int) a*b;
}
The compiler behaves differently for the following operators:
+=
-=
*=
/=
%=
&=
|=
^=
<<=
>>=
For these operators, the result is to be written back onto the left-hand side operand (which must be a variable). So the compiler will always convert the right hand side operand into the type of left-hand side operand.
Operators
The compiler supports the following operators:
+ - /
% ++ =
== ~
! !=
< >
<= >=
& &&
| ||
^ ?
<< >>
-= +=
/= %=
&= *=
^= |=
>>= <<=
Functions
You may use function prototypes to declare a function.
These declarations include information about the function parameters.
Example: int alfa(char par1, int par2, long par3);
The actual function definition may be written somewhere else as:
int alfa(char par1, int par2, long par3)
{
/* Write some statements here */
}
The old Kernighan & Ritchie style of writing function definitions is not supported.
Function parameters are passed through the Data Stack
Function values are returned in registers R30, R31, R22 and R23 (from LSB to MSB).
Pointers
Due to the Harvard architecture of the AVR microcontroller, with separate address spaces for data (SRAM), program (FLASH) and EEPROM memory, the compiler implements three types of pointers.
The syntax for pointer declaration is:
[] type * [] pointer_name;
or
type [] * [] pointer_name;
where type can be any data type.
Variables placed in SRAM are accessed using normal pointers.
For accessing constants placed in FLASH memory, the flash type storage modifier is used.
For accessing variables placed in EEPROM, the eeprom type storage modifier is used.
Although the pointers may point to different memory areas, they are by default stored in SRAM.
Example:
/* Pointer to a char string placed in SRAM */
char *ptr_to_ram=”This string is placed in SRAM”;
/* Pointer to a char string placed in FLASH */
flash char *ptr_to_flash1=”This string is placed in FLASH”;
char flash *ptr_to_flash2=”This string is also placed in FLASH”;
/* Pointer to a char string placed in EEPROM */
eeprom char *ptr_to_eeprom1="This string is placed in EEPROM";
char eeprom *ptr_to_eeprom2="This string is also placed in EEPROM";
In order to store the pointer itself in other memory areas, like FLASH or EEPROM, the flash or eeprom pointer storage modifiers must be used as in the examples below:
/* Pointer stored in FLASH to a char string placed in SRAM */
char * flash flash_ptr_to_ram=”This string is placed in SRAM”;
/* Pointer stored in FLASH to a char string placed in FLASH */
flash char * flash flash_ptr_to_flash=”This string is placed in FLASH”;
/* Pointer stored in FLASH to a char string placed in EEPROM */
eeprom char * flash eeprom_ptr_to_eeprom="This string is placed in EEPROM";
/* Pointer stored in EEPROM to a char string placed in SRAM */
char * eeprom eeprom_ptr_to_ram=”This string is placed in SRAM”;
/* Pointer stored in EEPROM to a char string placed in FLASH */
flash char * eeprom eeprom_ptr_to_flash=”This string is placed in FLASH”;
/* Pointer stored in EEPROM to a char string placed in EEPROM */
eeprom char * eeprom eeprom_ptr_to_eeprom="This string is placed in EEPROM";
For improving the code efficiency two memory models are implemented.
The TINY memory model uses 8 bits for storing pointers to the variables placed in SRAM. In this memory model you can only have access to the first 256 bytes of SRAM.
The SMALL memory model uses 16 bits for storing pointers the variables placed in SRAM. In this memory model you can have access to 65536 bytes of SRAM.
For improving program speed and size, you must always try to use the TINY memory model.
Pointers to the FLASH and EEPROM memory areas always use 16 bits.
Because pointers to the FLASH memory are 16 bits wide, the total size of the constant arrays and char strings can't exceed 64K for the ATmega103 or ATmega128. However the total size of the program can be 128K for these chips.
Pointers can be grouped in arrays, which can have up to 8 dimensions.
Example:
/* Declare and initialize a global array of pointers to strings
placed in SRAM */
char *strings[3]={"One","Two","Three"};
/* Declare and initialize a global array of pointers to strings
placed in FLASH The pointer array itself is also stored in FLASH */
flash char * flash messages[3]={"Message 1","Message 2","Message 3"};
/* Declare some strings in EEPROM */
eeprom char m1[]="aaaa";
eeprom char m2[]="bbbb";
void main(void) {
/* Declare a local array of pointers to the strings placed in EEPROM
You must note that although the strings are located in EEPROM,
the pointer array itself is located in SRAM */
char eeprom *pp[2];
/* and initialize the array */
pp[0]=m1;
pp[1]=m2;
}
Pointers to functions are always 16 bits wide because they are used to access the FLASH memory area. There is no need to use the flash keyword for these types of pointers.
Example:
/* Declare a function */
int sum(int a, int b) {
return a+b;
}
/* Declare and initialize a global pointer to the function sum */
int (*sum_ptr) (int a, int b)=sum;
void main(void) {
int i;
/* Call the function sum using the pointer */
i=(*sum_ptr) (1,2);
}
Accessing the I/O Registers
The compiler uses the sfrb and sfrw keywords to access the AVR microcontroller’s I/O Registers, using the IN and OUT assembly instructions.
Example:
/* Define the SFRs */
sfrb PINA=0x19; /* 8 bit access to the SFR */
sfrw TCNT1=0x2c; /* 16 bit access to the SFR */
void main(void) {
unsigned char a;
a=PINA; /* Read PORTA input pins */
TCNT1=0x1111; /* Write to TCNT1L & TCNT1H registers */
}
The addresses of I/O registers are predefined in the following header files, located in the ..\INC subdirectory:
tiny13.h
tiny22.h
tiny26.h
90s2313.h
90s2323.h
90s2333.h
90s2343.h
90s4414.h
90s4433.h
90s4434.h
90s8515.h
90s8534.h
90s8535.h
mega103.h
mega128.h
mega16.h
mega161.h
mega162.h
mega163.h
mega169.h
mega32.h
mega323.h
mega603.h
mega64.h
mega8.h
mega8515.h
mega8535.h
43usb355.h
76c711.h
86rf401.h
94k.h
You may #include the corresponding file, for the processor that you use, at the beginning of your program.
Bit level access to the I/O Registers
The bit level access to the I/O registers is accomplished using bit selectors appended after the name of the I/O register.
Because bit level access to I/O registers is done using the CBI, SBI, SBIC and SBIS instructions, the register address must be in the 0 to 1Fh range for sfrb and in the 0 to 1Eh range for sfrw.
Example:
sfrb PORTA=0x1b;
sfrb DDRA=0x18;
sfrb PINA=0x19;
void main(void) {
/* set bit 0 of Port A as output */
DDRA.0=1;
/* set bit 1 of Port A as input */
DDRA.1=0;
/* set bit 0 of Port A output */
PORTA.0=1;
/* test bit 1 input of Port A */
if (PINA.1) { /* place some code here */ };
/* ....... */
}
To improve the readability of the program you may wish to #define symbolic names to the bits in I/O registers:
sfrb PINA=0x19;
#define alarm_input PINA.2
void main(void)
{
/* test bit 2 input of Port A */
if (alarm_input) { /* place some code here */ };
/* ....... */
}
It is important to note that bit selector access to I/O registers located in internal SRAM above address 5Fh (like PORTF for the ATmega128 for example) will not work, because the CBI, SBI, SBIC and SBIS instructions can’t be used for SRAM access.
Accessing the EEPROM
Accessing the AVR internal EEPROM is accomplished using global variables, preceded by the keyword eeprom.
Example:
/* The value 1 is stored in the EEPROM during chip programming */
eeprom int alfa=1;
eeprom char beta;
eeprom long array1[5];
/* The string is stored in the EEPROM during chip programming */
eeprom char string[]=”Hello”;
void main(void) {
int i;
/* Pointer to EEPROM */
int eeprom *ptr_to_eeprom;
/* Write directly the value 0x55 to the EEPROM */
alfa=0x55;
/* or indirectly by using a pointer */
ptr_to_eeprom=&alfa;
*ptr_to_eeprom=0x55;
/* Read directly the value from the EEPROM */
i=alfa;
/* or indirectly by using a pointer */
i=*ptr_to_eeprom;
}
Pointers to the EEPROM always use 16 bits.
Using Interrupts
The access to the AVR interrupt system is implemented with the interrupt keyword.
Example:
/* Vector numbers are for the AT90S8515 */
/* Called automatically on external interrupt */
interrupt [2] void external_int0(void) {
/* Place your code here */
}
/* Called automatically on TIMER0 overflow */
interrupt [8] void timer0_overflow(void) {
/* Place your code here */
}
Interrupt vector numbers start with 1.
The compiler will automatically save all the used registers when calling the interrupt functions and restore them back on exit.
A RETI assembly instruction is placed at the end of the interrupt function.
Interrupt functions can’t return a value nor have parameters.
You must also set the corresponding bits in the peripheral control registers to configure the interrupt system and enable the interrupts.
The automatic saving and restoring of registers R0, R1, R15, R22, R23, R24, R25, R26, R27, R30, R31 and SREG, during interrupts can be turned on or off using the #pragma savereg directive.
Example:
/* Turn registers saving off */
#pragma savereg-
/* interrupt handler */
interrupt [1] void my_irq(void) {
/* now save only the registers that are
affected by the routines in the handler,
for example R30, R31 and SREG */
#asm
push r30
push r31
in r30,SREG
push r30
#endasm
/* place the C code here */
/* .... */
/* now restore SREG, R31 and R30 */
#asm
pop r30
out SREG,r30
pop r31
pop r30
#endasm
}
/* re-enable register saving for the other interrupts */
#pragma savereg+
The default state is automatic saving of registers during interrupts.
The Preprocessor
The Preprocessor directives allows you to:
· include text from other files, such as header files containing library and user function prototypes
· define macros that reduce programming effort and improve the legibility of the source code
· set up conditional compilation for debugging purposes and to improve program portability
· issue compiler specific directives
The #include directive may be used to include another file in your source.
You may nest as many as 16 #include files.
Example:
/* File will be looked for in the /inc directory of the compiler. */
#include
or
/* File will be looked for in the current project directory.
If it's not located there, then it will be included from
the /inc directory of the compiler. */
#include "file_name"
The #define directive may be used to define a macro.
Example:
#define ALFA 0xff
This statement defines the symbol ‘ALFA’ to the value 0xff.
The C preprocessor will replace 'ALFA' with 0xff in the source text before compiling.
Macros can also have parameters. The preprocessor will replace the macro with it's expansion and the formal parameters with the real ones.
Example:
#define SUM(a,b) a+b
/* the following code sequence will
be replaced with int i=2+3; */
int i=SUM(2,3);
When defining macros you can use the # operator to convert the macro parameter to a character string.
Example:
#define PRINT_MESSAGE(t) printf(#t)
/* ...... */
/* the following code sequence will
be replaced with printf("Hello"); */
PRINT_MESSAGE(Hello);
Two parameters can be concatenated using the ## operator.
Example:
#define ALFA(a,b) a ## b
/* the following code sequence will
be replaced with char xy=1; */
char ALFA(x,y)=1;
A macro definition can be extended to a new line by using \ .
Example:
#define MESSAGE "This is a very \
long text..."
A macro can be undefined using the #undef directive.
Example:
#undef ALFA
The #ifdef, #ifndef, #else and #endif directives may be used for conditional compilation.
The syntax is:
#ifdef macro_name
[set of statements 1]
#else
[set of statements 2]
#endif
If 'alfa' is a defined macro name, then the #ifdef expression evaluates to true and the set of statements 1 will be compiled.
Otherwise the set of statements 2 will be compiled.
The #else and set of statements 2 are optional.
If 'alfa' is not defined, the #ifndef expression evaluates to true.
The rest of the syntax is the same as that for #ifdef.
The #if, #else and #endif directives may be also used for conditional compilation.
The syntax is:
#if expression1
[set of statements 1]
#else
[set of statements 2]
#endif
If expression1 evaluates to true, the set of statements 1 will be compiled.
Otherwise the set of statements 2 will be compiled.
The #else and set of statements 2 are optional.
The #elif directive is also useful in conditional compilation:
#if expression1
[set of statements 1]
#elif expression1
[set of statements 2]
#else
[set of statements 3]
#endif
If expression1 evaluates to true, the set of statements 1 will be compiled.
If expression2 evaluates to true, the set of statements 2 will be compiled.
Otherwise the set of statements 3 will be compiled.
The #else and set of statements 3 are optional.
There are the following predefined macros:
__CODEVISIONAVR__ the version and revision of the compiler represented as an integer, example for V1.23.8 this will be 1238
__LINE__ the current line number of the compiled file
__FILE__ the current compiled file
__TIME__ the current time in hh:mm:ss format
__DATE__ the current date in mmm dd yyyy format
_CHIP_ATXXXXX_ where ATXXXXX is the chip type, in uppercase letters, specified in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Chip option
_MCU_CLOCK_FREQUENCY_ the AVR clock frequency specified in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Clock option, expressed as an integer in Hz
_MODEL_TINY_ if the program is compiled using the TINY memory model
_MODEL_SMALL_ if the program is compiled using the SMALL memory model
_OPTIMIZE_SIZE_ if the program is compiled with optimization for size
_OPTIMIZE_SPEED_ if the program is compiled with optimization for speed
_UNSIGNED_CHAR_ if the char is unsigned compiler option is enabled or #pragma uchar+ is used
_8BIT_ENUMS_ if the 8 bit enums compiler option is enabled or #pragma 8bit_enums+ is used.
The #line directive can be used to modify the predefined __LINE__ and __FILE__ macros.
The syntax is:
#line integer_constant ["file_name"]
Example:
/* This will set __LINE__ to 50 and
__FILE__ to "file2.c" */
#line 50 "file2.c"
/* This will set __LINE__ to 100 */
#line 100
There #error directive can be used to stop compilation and display an error message.
The syntax is:
#error error_message
Example:
#error This is an error!
The #pragma directive allows compiler specific directives.
You can use the #pragma warn directive to enable or disable compiler warnings.
Example:
/* Warnings are disabled */
#pragma warn-
/* Write some code here */
/* Warnings are enabled */
#pragma warn+
The compiler’s code optimizer can be turned on or off using the #pragma opt directive. This directive must be placed at the start of the source file.
The default is optimization turned on.
Example:
/* Turn optimization off, for testing purposes */
#pragma opt-
or
/* Turn optimization on */
#pragma opt+
If the code optimization is enabled, you can optimize some portions or all the program for size or speed using the #pragma optsize directive.
The default state is determined by the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Optimization setting.
Example:
/* The program will be optimized for minimum size */
#pragma optsize+
/* Place your program functions here */
/* Now the program will be optimized for maximum execution speed */
#pragma optsize-
/* Place your program functions here */
The automatic saving and restoring of registers R0, R1, R15, R22, R23, R24, R25, R26, R27, R30, R31 and SREG, during interrupts can be turned on or off using the #pragma savereg directive.
Example:
/* Turn registers saving off */
#pragma savereg-
/* interrupt handler */
interrupt [1] void my_irq(void) {
/* now save only the registers that are
affected by the routines in the handler,
for example R30, R31 and SREG */
#asm
push r30
push r31
in r30,SREG
push r30
#endasm
/* place the C code here */
/* now restore SREG, R31 and R30 */
#asm
pop r30
out SREG,r30
pop r31
pop r30
#endasm
}
/* re-enable register saving for the other interrupts */
#pragma savereg+
The default state is automatic saving of registers during interrupts.
The automatic allocation of global variables to registers can be turned on or off using the #pragma regalloc directive.
The default state is determined by the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Automatic Register Allocation check box.
Example:
/* the following global variable will be automatically
allocated to a register */
#pragma regalloc+
unsigned char alfa;
/* the following global variable will not be automatically
allocated to a register and will be placed in normal SRAM */
#pragma regalloc-
unsigned char beta;
The ANSI char to int operands promotion can be turned on or off using the #pragma promotechar directive.
Example:
/* turn on the ANSI char to int promotion */
#pragma promotechar+
/* turn off the ANSI char to int promotion */
#pragma promotechar-
This option can also be specified in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Promote char to int menu.
Treating char by default as an unsigned 8 bit can be turned on or off using the #pragma uchar directive.
Example:
/* char will be unsigned by default */
#pragma uchar+
/* char will be signed by default */
#pragma uchar-
This option can also be specified in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|char is unsigned menu.
Treating enumerations as an 8 bit char data type can be turned on or off using the #pragma 8bit_enums directive.
Example:
/* enumerations will be 8 bit char */
#pragma 8bit_enums+
/* enumerations will be 16 bit int */
#pragma 8bit_enums-
This option can also be specified in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|char is unsigned menu.
It is recommended to treat enumerations as an 8 bit char, in order to improved the size and execution speed of the compiled program.
The #pragma library directive is used for specifying the necessity to compile/link a specific library file.
Example:
#pragma library mylib.lib
The #pragma glbdef+ directive is used for compatibility with projects, created with versions of CodeVisionAVR prior to V1.0.2.2, where the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Global #define option was enabled.
It signals the compiler that macros are globally visible in all the program modules of a project.
This directive must be placed in beginning of the first source file of the project.
By default this directive is not active, so macros are visible only in the program module where they are defined.
SRAM Memory Organization
A compiled program has the following memory map:
The Working Registers area contains 32x8 bit general purpose working registers.
The compiler uses the following registers: R0, R1, R15, R22, R23, R24, R25, R26, R27, R28, R29, R30 and R31.
Also some of the registers from R2 to R14 may be allocated by the compiler for global bit variables. The rest of unused registers, in this range, are allocated for global char and int variables.
Registers R16 to R21 are allocated for local char and int variables.
The I/O Registers area contains 64 addresses for the CPU peripheral functions as Port Control Registers, Timer/Counters and other I/O functions. You may freely use these registers in your assembly programs.
The Data Stack area is used to dynamically store local variables, passing function parameters and saving registers R0, R1, R15, R22, R23, R24, R25, R26, R27, R30, R31 and SREG during interrupt routine servicing.
The Data Stack Pointer is implemented using the Y register.
At start-up the Data Stack Pointer is initialized with the value 5Fh+Data Stack Size.
When saving a value in the Data Stack, the Data Stack Pointer decrements.
When the value is retrieved, the Data Stack Pointer in incremented back.
When configuring the compiler, in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation menu, you must specify a sufficient Data Stack Size, so it will not overlap the I/O Register area during program execution.
The Global Variables area is used to statically store the global variables during program execution. The size of this area can be computed by summing the size of all the declared global variables.
The Hardware Stack area is used for storing the functions return addresses.
The SP register is used as a stack pointer and is initialized at start-up with value of last SRAM address.
During the program execution the Hardware Stack grows downwards to the Global Variables area.
When configuring the compiler you have the option to place the strings DSTACKEND, respectively HSTACKEND, at the end of the Data Stack, respectively Hardware Stack areas.
When you debug the program with AVR Studio you may see if these strings are overwritten, and consequently modify the Data Stack Size using the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation menu command.
When your program runs OK you may disable the placement of the strings in order to reduce code size.
Including Assembly Language in Your Program
You can include assembly language anywhere in your program using the #asm and #endasm directives.
Example:
void delay(unsigned char i) {
while (i--) {
/* Assembly language code sequence */
#asm
nop
nop
#endasm
};
}
Inline assembly may also be used.
Example:
#asm("sei") /* enable interrupts */
In order to use multiple instructions in inline assembly, the \ separator is required.
Example:
#asm("nop\nop\nop")
The registers R0, R1, R22, R23, R24, R25, R26, R27, R30 and R31 can be freely used in assembly routines.
However when using them in an interrupt service routine the programmer must save, respectively restore, them on entry, respectively on exit, of this routine.
Hints
In order to decrease code size and improve the execution speed, you must apply the following rules:
· If possible use unsigned variables;
· Use the smallest data type possible, i.e. bit and unsigned char;
· The size of the bit variables, allocated to the program in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|Bit Variables Size list box, should be as low as possible, in order to free registers for allocation to other global variables;
· If possible use the TINY memory model;
· Treat enumerations as having 8 bit char data type, by checking the 8 bit enums check box in Project|Configure|Compiler;
· Always store constant strings in FLASH by using the flash keyword;
· After finishing debugging your program, compile it again with the Stack End Markers option disabled;
· Write time critical portions of code using assembly language.
Character Type Functions
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file ctype.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
unsigned char isalnum(char c)
returns 1 if c is alphanumeric.
unsigned char isalpha(char c)
returns 1 if c is alphabetic.
unsigned char isascii(char c)
returns 1 if c is an ASCII character (0..127).
unsigned char iscntrl(char c)
returns 1 if c is a control character (0..31 or 127).
unsigned char isdigit(char c)
returns 1 if c is a decimal digit.
unsigned char islower(char c)
returns 1 if c is a lower case alphabetic character.
unsigned char isprint(char c)
returns 1 if c is a printable character (32..127).
unsigned char ispunct(char c)
returns 1 if c is a punctuation character (all but control and alphanumeric).
unsigned char isspace(char c)
returns 1 c is a white-space character (space, CR, HT).
unsigned char isupper(char c)
returns 1 if c is an upper-case alphabetic character.
unsigned char isxdigit(char c)
returns 1 if c is a hexadecimal digit.
char toascii(char c)
returns the ASCII equivalent of character c.
unsigned char toint(char c)
interprets c as a hexadecimal digit and returns an usigned char from 0 to 15.
char tolower(char c)
returns the lower case of c if c is an upper case character, else c.
char toupper(char c)
returns the upper case of c if c is a lower case character, else c.
Standard C Input/Output Functions
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file stdio.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
The standard C language I/O functions were adapted to work on embedded microcontrollers with limited resources.
The lowest level Input/Output functions are:
char getchar(void)
returns a character received by the UART, using polling.
void putchar(char c)
transmits the character c using the UART, using polling.
Prior to using these functions you must:
· initialize the UART's Baud rate
· enable the UART transmitter
· enable the UART receiver.
Example:
#include <90s8515 .h=".h">90s8515>
#include
/* quartz crystal frequency [Hz] */
#define xtal 4000000L
/* Baud rate */
#define baud 9600
void main(void) {
char k;
/* initialize the UART's baud rate */
UBRR=xtal/16/baud-1;
/* initialize the UART control register
RX & TX enabled, no interrupts, 8 data bits */
UCR=0x18;
while (1) {
/* receive the character */
k=getchar();
/* and echo it back */
putchar(k);
};
}
You can alternatively initialize the UART's Baud rate using the Project|Configure|C Compiler menu.
If you intend to use other peripherals for Input/Output, you must modify accordingly the getchar and putchar functions. The source code for these functions is available in the
file stdio.h .
All the high level Input/Output functions use getchar and putchar.
void puts(char *str)
outputs, using putchar, the null terminated character string str, located in SRAM, followed by a new line character.
void putsf(char flash *str)
outputs, using putchar, the null terminated character string str, located in FLASH, followed by a new line character.
void printf(char flash *fmtstr [ , arg1, arg2, ...])
outputs formatted text, using putchar, according to the format specifiers in the fmtstr string.
The format specifier string fmtstr is constant and must be located in FLASH memory.
The implementation of printf is a reduced version of the standard C function.
This was necessary due to the specific needs of an embedded system and because the full implementation would require a large amount of FLASH memory space.
The format specifier string has the following structure:
%[flags][width][.precision][l]type_char
The optional flags characters are:
'-' left-justifies the result, padding on the right with spaces. If it's not present, the result will be right-justified, padded on the left with zeros or spaces;
'+' signed conversion results will always begin with a '+' or '-' sign;
' ' if the value isn't negative, the conversion result will begin with a space. If the value is negative then it will begin with a '-' sign.
The optional width specifier sets the minimal width of an output value. If the result of the conversion is wider than the field width, the field will be expanded to accommodate the result, so not to cause field truncation.
The following width specifiers are supported:
n - at least n characters are outputted. If the result has less than n characters, then it's field will be padded with spaces. If the '-' flag is used, the result field will be padded on the right, otherwise it will be padded on the left;
0n - at least n characters are outputted. If the result has less than n characters, it is padded on the left with zeros.
The optional precision specifier sets the maximal number of characters or minimal number of integer digits that may be outputted.
For the 'e', 'E' and 'f' conversion type characters the precision specifier sets the number of digits that will be outputted to the right of the decimal point.
The precision specifier always begins with a '.' character in order to separate it from the width specifier.
The following precision specifiers are supported:
none - the precision is set to 1 for the 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X' conversion type characters. For the 's' and 'p' conversion type characters, the char string will be outputted up to the first null character;
.0 - the precision is set to 1 for the 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X' type characters;
.n - n characters or n decimal places are outputted.
For the 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X' conversion type characters, if the value has less than n digits, then it will be padded on the left with zeros. If it has more than n digits then it will not be truncated.
For the 's' and 'p' conversion type characters, no more than n characters from the char string will be outputted.
For the 'e', 'E' and 'f' conversion type characters, n digits will be outputted to the right of the decimal point.
The precision specifier has no effect on the 'c' conversion type character.
The optional 'l' input size modifier specifies that the function argument must be treated as a long int for the 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', 'X' conversion type characters.
The type_char conversion type character is used to specify the way the function argument will be treated.
The following conversion type characters are supported:
'i' - the function argument is a signed decimal integer;
'd' - the function argument is a signed decimal integer;
'u' - the function argument is an unsigned decimal integer;
'e' - the function argument is a float, that will be outputted using the [-]d.ddddd e[-]dd format
'E' - the function argument is a float, that will be outputted using the [-]d.ddddd E[-]dd format
'f' - the function argument is a float, that will be outputted using the [-]ddd.ddddd format
'x' - the function argument is an unsigned hexadecimal integer, that will be outputted with lowercase characters;
'X' - the function argument is an unsigned hexadecimal integer, that will be outputted with with uppercase characters;
'c' - the function argument is a single character;
's' - the function argument is a pointer to a null terminated char string located in SRAM;
'p' - the function argument is a pointer to a null terminated char string located in FLASH;
'%' - the '%' character will be outputted.
void sprintf(char *str, char flash *fmtstr [ , arg1, arg2, ...])
this function is identical to printf except that the formatted text is placed in the null terminated character string str.
In order to reduce program code size, there is the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|(s)printf features option.
It allows linking different versions of the printf and sprintf functions, with only the features that are really required by the program.

inputs, using getchar, the character string str terminated by the new line character.
The new line character will be replaced with 0.
The maximum length of the string is len. If len characters were read without encountering the new line character, then the string is terminated with 0 and the function ends.
The function returns a pointer to str.
signed char scanf(char flash *fmtstr [ , arg1 address, arg2 address, ...])
formatted text input by scanning, using getchar, a series of input fields according to the format specifiers in the fmtstr string.

The format specifier string has the following structure:
%[width][l]type_char
The optional width specifier sets the maximal number of characters to read. If the function encounters a whitespace character or one that cannot be converted, then it will continue with the next input field, if present.
The optional 'l' input size modifier specifies that the function argument must be treated as a long int for the 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x' conversion type characters.
The type_char conversion type character is used to specify the way the input field will be processed.
The following conversion type characters are supported:
'd' - inputs a signed decimal integer in a pointer to int argument;
'i' - inputs a signed decimal integer in a pointer to int argument;
'u' - inputs an unsigned decimal integer in a pointer to unsigned int argument;
'x' - inputs an unsigned hexadecimal integer in a pointer to unsigned int argument;
'c' - inputs an ASCII character in a pointer to char argument;
's' - inputs an ASCII character string in a pointer to char argument;
'%' - no input is done, a '%' is stored.
The function returns the number of successful entries, or -1 on error.
signed char sscanf(char *str, char flash *fmtstr [ , arg1 address, arg2 address, ...])
this function is identical to scanf except that the formatted text is inputted from the null terminated character string str, located in SRAM.
In order to reduce program code size, there is the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation|(s)scanf features option.
It allows linking different versions of the scanf and sscanf functions, with only the features that are really required by the program.
The following (s)scanf features are available:
· int, width - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', '%', the width specifier is supported, no input size modifiers are supported
· long, width - the following conversion type characters are supported: 'c', 's', 'i', 'd', 'u', 'x', '%' the width specifier is supported, only the 'l' input size modifier is supported.
The more features are selected, the larger is the code size generated for the scanf and sscanf functions.

Variable Length Argument Lists Macros
These macros are defined in the file stdarg.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the macros.
void va_start(argptr, previous_par)
This macro, when used in a function with a variable length argument list, initializes the argptr pointer of va_list type, for subsequent use by the va_arg and va_end macros.
The previous_par argument must be the name of the function argument immediately preceding the optional arguments.
The va_start macro must be called prior to any access using the va_arg macro.
type va_arg(argptr, type)
This macro is used to extract successive arguments from the variable length argument list referenced by argptr.
type specifies the data type of the argument to extract.
The va_arg macro can be called only once for each argument. The order of the parameters in the argument list must be observed.
On the first call va_arg returns the first argument after the previous_par argument specified in the va_start macro. Subsequent calls to va_arg return the remaining arguments in succession.
void va_end(argptr)
his macro is used to terminate use of the variable length argument list pointer argptr, initialized using the va_start macro.
Example:
#include
/* declare a function with a variable number of arguments */
int sum_all(int nsum, ...)
{
va_list argptr;
int i, result=0;
/* initialize argptr */
va_start(argptr,nsum);
/* add all the function arguments after nsum */
for (i=1; i <= nsum; i++)
/* add each argument */
result+=va_arg(argptr,int);
/* terminate the use of argptr */
va_end(argptr);
return result;
}
void main(void)
{
int s;
/* calculate the sum of 5 arguments */
s=sum_all(5,10,20,30,40,50);
}
Non-local Jump Functions
These functions can execute a non-local goto.
They are usually used to pass control to an error recovery routine.
The prototypes for the non-local jump functions are placed in the file setjmp.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
int setjmp(char *env)
This function saves the current CPU state (Y, SP, SREG registers and the current instruction address) in the env variable.
The CPU state can then be restored by subsequently calling the longjmp function.
Execution is then resumed immediately after the setjmp function call.
The setjmp function will return 0 when the current CPU state is saved in the env variable.
If the function returns a value different from 0, it signals that a longjmp function was executed.
In this situation the returned value is the one that was passed as the retval argument to the longjmp function.
In order to preserve the local variables in the function where setjmp is used, these must be declared with the volatile attribute.
void longjmp(char *env, int retval)
This function restores the CPU state that was previously saved in the env variable by a call to setjmp.
The retval argument holds the integer non-zero value that will be returned by setjmp after the call to longjmp. If a 0 value is passed as the retval argument then it will be substituted with 1.
In order to facilitate the usage of these functions, the setjmp.h header file also contains the definition of the jmp_buf data type, which is used when declaring the env variables.
Example:
#include <90s8515 .h=".h">90s8515>
#include
#include
/* declare the variable used to hold the CPU state */
jmp_buf cpu_state;
void foo(void)
{
printf("Now we will make a long jump to main()\n\r");
longjmp(cpu_state,1);
}
void main(void)
{
/* this local variable will be preserved after a longjmp */
volatile int i;
/* this local variable will not be preserved after a longjmp */
int j;
/* init the AT90S8515 UART */
UCR=8;
/* Baud=9600 @ 4MHz */
UBRR=25;
if (setjmp(cpu_state)==0)
{
printf("First call to setjmp\n\r");
foo();
}
else
printf("We jumped here from foo()\n\r");
}

this function reads a byte located in SRAM at address addr.
unsigned int peekw (unsigned int addr)
this function reads a word located in SRAM at address addr.
The LSB is read from address addr and the MSB is read from address addr+1.
Delay Functions
These functions are intended for generating delays in C programs.
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file delay.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
Before calling the functions the interrupts must be disabled, otherwise the delays will be
much longer then expected.
Also it is very important to specify the correct AVR chip clock frequency in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation menu.
The functions are:
void delay_us(unsigned int n)
generates a delay of n mseconds. n must be a constant expression.
void delay_ms(unsigned int n)
generates a delay of n milliseconds.
This function automatically resets the watchdog timer every 1ms by generating the wdr instruction.
Example:
void main(void) {
/* disable interrupts */
#asm("cli")
/* 100ms delay */
delay_us(100);
/* ............. */
/* 10ms delay */
delay_ms(10);
/* enable interrupts */
#asm("sei")
/* ............. */
}

1 Wire Protocol Functions
The 1 Wire Functions are intended for easy interfacing between C programs and various peripherals using the Dallas Semiconductor 1 Wire protocol.
These functions treat the microcontroller as a bus master and the peripherals as slaves.
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file 1wire.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
Prior to #include -ing the 1wire.h file, you must declare which microcontroller port and port bit is used for communication through the 1 Wire protocol.
Example:
/* the 1 Wire bus is connected to PORTB */
/* the data signal is bit 2 */
#asm
.equ __w1_port=0x18
.equ __w1_bit=2
#endasm
/* now you can include the 1 Wire Functions */
#include <1wire .h=".h">1wire>
Because the 1 Wire Functions require precision time delays for correct operation, the interrupts must be disabled during their execution.
Also it is very important to specify the correct AVR chip clock frequency in the Project|Configure|C Compiler|Code Generation menu.
The 1 Wire Functions are:
unsigned char w1_init(void)
this function initializes the 1 Wire devices on the bus.
It returns 1 if there were devices present or 0 if not.
unsigned char w1_read(void)
this function reads a byte from the 1 Wire bus.
unsigned char w1_write(unsigned char data)
this function writes the byte data to the 1 Wire bus.
It returns 1 if the write process completed normally or 0 if not.
unsigned char w1_search(unsigned char cmd,void *p)
this function returns the number of devices connected to the 1 Wire bus.
If no devices were detected then it returns 0.
The byte cmd represents the Search ROM (F0h), Alarm Search (ECh) for the DS1820/DS18S20, or other similar commands, sent to the 1 Wire device.
The pointer p points to an area of SRAM where are stored the 8 bytes ROM codes returned by the device. After the eighth byte, the function places a ninth status byte which contains a status bit returned by some 1 Wire devices (e.g. DS2405).
Thus the user must allocate 9 bytes of SRAM for each device present on the 1 Wire bus.
If there is more then one device connected to the 1 Wire bus, than the user must first call the w1_search function to identify the ROM codes of the devices and to be able to address them at a later stage in the program.
Example:
#include <90s8515 .h=".h">90s8515>
/* specify the port and bit used for the 1 Wire bus */
#asm
.equ __w1_port=0x18 ;PORTB
.equ __w1_bit=2
#endasm
/* include the 1 Wire bus functions prototypes */
#include <1wire .h=".h">1wire>
/* include the printf function prototype */
#include
/* specify the maximum number of devices connected
to the 1 Wire bus */
#define MAX_DEVICES 8
/* allocate SRAM space for the ROM codes & status bit */
unsigned char rom_codes[MAX_DEVICES,9];
/* quartz crystal frequency [Hz] */
#define xtal 4000000L
/* Baud rate */
#define baud 9600
void main(void) {
unsigned char i,j,devices;
/* initialize the UART's baud rate */
UBRR=xtal/16/baud-1;
/* initialize the UART control register
TX enabled, no interrupts, 8 data bits */
UCR=8;
/* detect how many DS1820/DS18S20 devices
are connected to the bus and
store their ROM codes in the rom_codes array */
devices=w1_search(0xf0,rom_codes);
/* display the ROM codes for each detected device */
printf("%-u DEVICE(S) DETECTED\n\r",devices);
if (devices) {
for (i=0;i
printf("DEVICE #%-u ROM CODE IS:", i+1);
for (j=0;j<8 font="font" i="i" j="j" printf="printf" rom_codes="rom_codes">8>
printf("\n\r");
};
};
while (1); /* loop forever */
}
unsigned char w1_dow_crc8(void *p, unsigned char n)
this function returns the 8 bit DOW CRC for a block of bytes with the length n, starting from address p.
Dallas Semiconductor DS1820/DS18S20 Temperature Sensors Functions

The 1 Wire bus functions prototypes are automatically #include -ed with the ds1820.h.
Prior to #include -ing the ds1820.h file, you must declare which microcontroller port and port bits are used for communication with the DS1820/DS18S20 through the 1 Wire bus.
Example:
/* specify the port and bit used for the 1 Wire bus */
#asm
.equ __w1_port=0x18 ;PORTB
.equ __w1_bit=2
#endasm
/* include the DS1820/DS18S20 functions prototypes */
#include
The DS1820/DS18S20 functions are:
int ds1820_temperature_10(unsigned char *addr)
this function returns the temperature of the DS1820/DS18S20 sensor with the ROM code stored in an array of 8 bytes located at address addr.
The temperature is in °C and is multiplied by 10. In case of error the function returns the value -9999.
If only one DS1820/DS18S20 sensor is used, no ROM code array is necessary and the pointer addr must be NULL (0).
If more several sensors are used, then the program must first identify the ROM codes for all the sensors. Only after that the ds1820_temperature_10 function may be used, with the addr pointer pointing to the array which holds the ROM code for the needed device.
Example:
#include <90s8515 .h=".h">90s8515>

abs(temp%10));
};
};
}
unsigned char ds1820_set_alarm(unsigned char *addr,signed char temp_low,signed char temp_high)
this function sets the low (temp_low) and high (temp_high) temperature alarms of the DS1820/DS18S20.
In case of success the function returns the value 1, else it returns 0.
The alarm temperatures are stored in both the DS1820/DS18S20's scratchpad SRAM and its EEPROM.
The ROM code needed to address the device is stored in an array of 8 bytes located at address addr.
If only one DS1820/DS18S20 sensor is used, no ROM code array is necessary and the pointer addr must be NULL (0).
The alarm status for all the DS1820/DS18S20 devices on the 1 Wire bus can be determined by calling the w1_search function with the Alarm Search (ECh) command.

Dallas Semiconductor DS2433 EEPROM Functions
This topic applies only to the commercial versions of the CodeVisionAVR C Compiler.
These functions are intended for easy interfacing between C programs and the DS2433 1 Wire bus EEPROM.
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file ds2433.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
The 1 Wire bus functions prototypes are automatically #include -ed with the ds2433.h.
Prior to #include -ing the ds2433.h file, you must declare which microcontroller port and port bits are used for communication with the DS2433 through the 1 Wire bus.
Example:
/* specify the port and bit used for the 1 Wire bus */
#asm
.equ __w1_port=0x18 ;PORTB
.equ __w1_bit=2
#endasm
/* include the DS2433 functions prototypes */
#include
The DS2433 functions are:
unsigned char ds2433_read_block(unsigned char *romcode,unsigned char *dest, unsigned int addr,unsigned int size);
this function reads a block of size bytes starting from the DS2433 EEPROM memory address addr and stores it in the string dest located in SRAM.
It returns 1 if successful, 0 if not.
The DS2433 device is selected using it's ROM code stored in an array of 8 bytes located at address romcode.
unsigned char ds2433_read(unsigned char *romcode,unsigned int addr, unsigned char *data);
this function reads a byte from the DS2433 EEPROM memory address addr and stores it in the SRAM memory location pointed by data.
It returns 1 if successful, 0 if not.
The DS2433 device is selected using it's ROM code stored in an array of 8 bytes located at address romcode.
unsigned char ds2433_write_block(unsigned char *romcode, unsigned char *source,unsigned int addr,unsigned int size);
this function writes a block of size bytes, from the string source, located in SRAM, in the DS2433 EEPROM starting from memory address addr.
It returns 1 if successful, 0 if not.
The DS2433 device is selected using it's ROM code stored in an array of 8 bytes located at address romcode.
unsigned char ds2433_write(unsigned char *romcode,unsigned int addr, unsigned char data);
this function writes the byte data at DS2433 EEPROM memory address addr.
It returns 1 if successful, 0 if not.
The DS2433 device is selected using it's ROM code stored in an array of 8 bytes located at address romcode.
If only one DS2433 EEPROM is used, no ROM code array is necessary and the pointer romcode must be NULL (0).
If several 1 Wire device are used, then the program must first identify the ROM codes for all the devices. Only after that the DS2433 functions may be used, with the romcode pointer pointing to the array which holds the ROM code for the needed device.
Example:
/* specify the port and bit used for the 1 Wire bus
The DS2433 devices are connected to
bit 6 of PORTA of the AT90S8515 as follows:
[DS2433] [STK200 PORTA HEADER]
1 GND - 9 GND
2 DATA - 7 PA6
All the devices must be connected in parallel
AN 4.7k PULLUP RESISTOR MUST BE CONNECTED
BETWEEN DATA (PA6) AND +5V !

SPI Functions
The SPI Functions are intended for easy interfacing between C programs and various peripherals using the SPI bus.
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file spi.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
The SPI functions are:
unsigned char spi(unsigned char data)
this function sends the byte data, simultaneously receiving a byte.
Prior to using the spi function, you must configure the SPI Control Register SPCR according to the Atmel Data Sheets.
Because the spi function uses polling for SPI communication, there is no need to set the SPI Interrupt Enable Bit SPIE.
Example of using the spi function for interfacing to an AD7896 ADC:
/*
Digital voltmeter using an
Analog Devices AD7896 ADC
connected to an AT90S8515
using the SPI bus
Chip: AT90S8515
Memory Model: SMALL
Data Stack Size: 128 bytes
Clock frequency: 4MHz
AD7896 connections to the AT90S8515
[AD7896] [AT9S8515 DIP40]
1 Vin
2 Vref=5V
3 AGND - 20 GND
4 SCLK - 8 SCK
5 SDATA - 7 MISO
6 DGND - 20 GND
7 CONVST- 2 PB1
8 BUSY - 1 PB0
Use an 2x16 alphanumeric LCD connected
to PORTC as follows:

Power Management Functions
The Power Management Functions are intended for putting the AVR chip in one of its low power consumption modes.
The prototypes for these functions are placed in the file sleep.h, located in the ..\INC subdirectory. This file must be #include -ed before using the functions.
The Power Management Functions are:
void sleep_enable(void)
this function enables entering the low power consumption modes.
void sleep_disable(void)
this function disables entering the low power consumption modes.
It is used to disable accidental entering the low power consumption modes.
void idle(void)
this function puts the AVR chip in the idle mode.
Prior to using this function, the sleep_enable function must be invoked to allow entering the low power consumption modes.
In this mode the CPU is stopped, but the Timers/Counters, Watchdog and interrupt system continue operating.
The CPU can wake up from external triggered interrupts as well as internal ones.
void powerdown(void)
this function puts the AVR chip in the powerdown mode.
Prior to using this function, the sleep_enable function must be invoked to allow entering the low power consumption modes.
In this mode the external oscillator is stopped.
The AVR can wake up only from an external reset, Watchdog time-out or external level triggered interrupt.
void powersave(void)
this function puts the AVR chip in the powersave mode.
Prior to using this function, the sleep_enable function must be invoked to allow entering the low power consumption modes.
This mode is similar to the powerdown mode with some differences, please consult the Atmel Data Sheet for the particular chip that you use.
void standby(void)
this function puts the AVR chip in the standby mode.
Prior to using this function, the sleep_enable function must be invoked to allow entering the low power consumption modes.
This mode is similar to the powerdown mode with the exception that the external clock oscillator keeps on running.
Consult the Atmel Data Sheet for the particular chip that you use, in order to see if the standby mode is available for it.
void extended_standby(void)
this function puts the AVR chip in the extended standby mode.
Prior to using this function, the sleep_enable function must be invoked to allow entering the low power consumption modes.
This mode is similar to the powersave mode with the exception that the external clock oscillator keeps on running.
Consult the Atmel Data Sheet for the particular chip that you use, in order to see if the standby mode is available for it.
