Maybe I'm kind of late here, but have you looked at the Procyon AVRlib? I believe it has all the stuff you're looking for. http://hubbard.engr.scu.edu/embedded/avr/avrlib Phillip _____ From: AVR-Chat@yahoogroups.com [mailto:AVR-Chat@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of briangregory82 Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2007 9:00 PM To: AVR-Chat@yahoogroups.com Subject: [AVR-Chat] SEROUT and SERIN First I want to thank everyone for their help with the software SPI, I managed to interface with the HM55B compass successfully. For that solution, I ended up just writing shiftin/shiftout routines. If anyone wants to see my code it is here: http://docwiki. <http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Robostix_and_HM55B_Compass> gumstix.org/Robostix_and_HM55B_Compass I now am trying to interface with the following I/R distance sensor: http://www.hvwtech. <http://www.hvwtech.com/products_view.asp?ProductID=91> com/products_view.asp?ProductID=91 It has a synchronous protocol that I've already bit-banged in similar fashion to the compass. This works ok, but I'd like to try and get the asynchronous protocol working. Essentially the sensor will continuously send out a sync pattern byte (10101010) and then the reading byte. The example is written in pbasic and essentially performs a SERIN at 4800 bps with a wait on the sync pattern. My question is this: Is there example code out there for a C implementation of SERIN and SEROUT? I see these "bit-bang" functions all over the place in pbasic examples and would like a C equivalent. SERIN: As a guess I would think I could start polling the pin for the first low-high transition and then spin (according to my processor's clock) for the appropriate time for the specified baud (4800). In this fashion I could start looking for the sync pattern, restarting my search if the pattern is incomplete. I would probably need to find the pattern twice (with a byte between) before I could be certain I've found it. Then I can just read the next eight bits. SEROUT: This would be the easy part, since I can just push out my bits based upon the baud timing. If there needs to be a sync pattern, then I just send it first. In each case, I would need to account for MSB or LSB. Any thoughts from the group? Thanks in advance... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
