I just downloaded the Codevision compiler, and I cannot find anywhere the size restriction for the evaluation version. I hoping to use the ATMega128, I dont need 128K, But I might be up in the 10-16K range. I dont see any support for the JTAG debugging in the IDE, Can I bring the output files to AVR Studio to use the JTAG debugging interface? I think I need a COFF version of the file. Thanks for all the help, Jim Shelton

Yes, you use Atmel Studio for simulation and JTAG debugging.

Why me.. :) Yesterday, I worked all day with my Jtag, no problems. Today, I can't get through the initial firmware load without studio crashing. At the end of the load, I get the "AVR studio has encountered an error and needs to close" message. I've repowered the target and Jtag. I removed and reinstalled studio. I changed the cable. I haven't changed anything else on the PC that I'm using to run Studio, other than ripping out studio and reinstalling it.

Have you rebooted your PC? Or more concrete: have you power cycled the PC to make sure SRAM is cleared?

That can only be answered by Bill G I think :-). But I had a similar
problem with the ICE200 about 2 days ago. Lots of misbehaving
and hair pulling, then I hit the on/off switch without doing the usual
nice power down thingy....
Sometimes a reset does not fix some problems but a power down for
a for 30 seconds or so does.

Sometimes hardware peripherals (is SRAM considered a peripheral? :) get into funny states that are not reset with a warm boot. Hence a power cycle is needed. I think the only reason it seems more prevalent with WinXP is that the OS doesn't crash due to S/W nearly as much as it's predecessors, so all that is left is flaky hardware.

Zheng, I noticed your email and I am trying to work with some rs485 communication for a home project. Is there any way you can help me with this?

I suppose a cut power trace and NC-momentary switch could fix that...

It is still shitty design for which there is no excuse.

Hi JoeT, Originally I was looking for a module which has been embedded with 802.11b so I dont need a wireless router. If you know this kind of stuff please let me know. This one definitely will make my life easier. Thanks for your reply! Regards, Alex JoeT <joet@attg.net> wrote: I have used SitePlayer with an ATmega16.
