Studio 4 <-> Studio 6

Studio 4 <-> Studio 6

2012-12-11 by Chuck Hackett

Can AVR Studio 6 co-exist on the same system with AVR Studio 4?

 

I'd like to try out 6 but I don't want to lose my working version of 4.

 

Cheers,

There are reports on AVRFreaks that it can.  Think they need to be completely separate. You might check over there, in the Studio5/6 forum.

I have 4 and 6 installed as separate install and I can use either. The only
downside is that you can't use the same JTAG device because you have to keep
upgrading and downgrading as you switch. Other than that, they work fine on
my Win 7 64 bit machine.

Hi Chuck Hackett,

Yes, AVR Studio4 and Atmel Studio6.0 can exist on same system. Both the softwares installs as independent softwares in their own path and set of folders, one will not effect the other.

Just for your information, the latest version is Atmel Studio6.0.1996 Service Pack2,. We should call it is Atmel studio6.0.1996, but not as AVR Studio6.0, because, from Atmel studio6 version, the single studio6 supports only AVR architecture, but also supports ARM based devices from atmel. Hence its not only AVR Studio, its ATmel Studio6.

Hope you understand it.

Best Regards
Narayana Raju

I have installed 4, 5 and 6 on my machine and all these can co-exist without any problems. The only problem is the JTAG driver roll backs. As I am currently using AS4, I need to upgrade my debugger driver to whichever version I move to.

It's a bit of a pain. I wish there was a solution tho this JTAG snag!

I'm also running on Win-7(64).  Can you describe the procedure required to
switch back and forth between JTAG drivers?

There is, use one debugger for AS4 only and another one (JTAG Mk3 in my case)
for AS6.

Hi Chuck,

 

The software takes care of it for you after it checks the version. 

 

It will upgrade or downgrade as required automatically when you connect to
the JTAG device.

 


Dave.

RE: Saving A State to EEPROM on Power-Down

2012-12-12 by Benny Smith

Does the 8-bit AVR (e.g. ATMega88PA) have a means to sense the removal of
power and to execute 

a save-state operation to EEPROM before the supply voltage drops below the
critical level necessary

to change the EEPROM?

 

I am using an on-board regulator to supply 5 volts to the AVR.  The
regulator has 200 msec or more of hold-up time after power is removed.

 

I could certainly add hardware to allow sensing a drop in Vcc below, say, 4
volts, which could be used to trigger the save-state operation.

 

But I would like to avoid adding hardware.

 

I am using an ADC input to the AVR to sense a thermistor voltage.  That
voltage does not change very quickly.

 

However, a drop in Vcc would immediately be reflected as a drop in the
thermistor voltage and, providing that the 

AVR was still alive, the save-state operation might work.

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

 

Benny Smith
