PIC18F87J50 and External Memory
PostPosted: Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:05 pm     Reply with quote
I have tried to enable the external bus of PIC18F87J50 but I have found a problem. I can't use fuses EMCU16 and EASHFT. It's not recognised by the compiler.
I think this is a bug in the configuration manager of CCS. How can I resolve this problem ?

Thanks in advance.

See these posts. They have sample code which shows how to use the
#rom statement to set the Config Bits if the desired #fuses statements
are not supported, or if they have bugs:

I have use #rom and now the configuration it's ok but if i use the function
Code:

void readextram(int32 addr, int8 *rams, int8 bytes)
{
  read_external_memory(addr, rams, bytes);   
}

void writeextram(int32 addr, int8 *rams, int8 bytes)
{
   write_external_memory(addr, rams, bytes);   
} 

addressmod(extram, readextram, writeextram, 0x20000, 0x2FFFF);

   
setup_external_memory(EXTMEM_BYTE_WRITE | EXTMEM_WAIT_0);

I can't access to external memory, I have check with oscilloscope the signal and no bus activity.
I have build a simple program with Microchip C18 and I can access to the external ram.
How I can solve this problem?

Thanks

1. I wouldn't use addressmod. It's buggy.

2. Post your compiler version.

3. Post a very short program that calls the external memory functions.
The program must be compilable without errors. It must have
#include, #fuses, #use delay(), #use rs232() and main() statements.
It should display the value that was read from external memory.

You can probably do this in about 10 lines of code. Don't post 50 lines.

compiler version 4.075.

Source Code

H File
Code:

// MAIN.H
#include <18F87J50.h>

#FUSES H4_SW, PLL3, NOCPUDIV, EMCU20, EASHFT


C File

Code:


#include "main.h"

#use delay(clock=48000000)

void readextram(int32 addr, int8 *rams, int8 bytes)
{
   read_external_memory(addr, rams, bytes);   
}

void writeextram(int32 addr, int8 *rams, int8 bytes)
{
   write_external_memory(addr, rams, bytes);   
} 

addressmod(extram, readextram, writeextram, 0x20000, 0x2FFFF);

void main(void)
{
   unsigned char x;
   unsigned char extram p[20];
   unsigned char rd;
   
   setup_external_memory(EXTMEM_BYTE_WRITE | EXTMEM_WAIT_0);

   
   for (;;)
   {
      for (x = 0; x < 10; x++)
         p[x] = 0xA5;

      for (x = 0; x <10; x++)
      {
         rd = p[x];
         if (rd == 0xA5)
            rd = 0;
      }   
      delay_ms(100);
   }
}



This my test code.

I don't trust addressmod, so I'm not going to test your code.
Someone else can help.
