clock problem with pic18f2550
PostPosted: Sat Feb 14, 2009 10:16 am     Reply with quote

Hello everybody!

This is the fist time I am using C (ccs 4) for writing pic programs, before I always used asm. But I am having some problems with the frequency. Right now I just try to turn on/off a led with a PIC18F2550.
But the clock frequency is not working correctly.

First I used the internal clock at 8Mhz, but for a simple loop of 500 ms it needs 2 seconds!!! This code turns off and on the led again in 4 seconds (instead of 1 second).

Code:

#int_TIMER0
void  TIMER0_isr(void)
{

}



void main()
{

   setup_adc_ports(NO_ANALOGS|VSS_VDD);
   setup_adc(ADC_OFF);
   setup_spi(SPI_SS_DISABLED);
   setup_wdt(WDT_OFF);
   setup_timer_0(RTCC_INTERNAL|RTCC_DIV_16);
   setup_timer_1(T1_DISABLED);
   setup_timer_2(T2_DISABLED,0,1);
   setup_timer_3(T3_DISABLED|T3_DIV_BY_1);
   setup_comparator(NC_NC_NC_NC);
   setup_vref(FALSE);
   enable_interrupts(INT_TIMER0);
   enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
   setup_oscillator(OSC_8MHZ|OSC_TIMER1|OSC_31250|OSC_PLL_OFF);

   // TODO: USER CODE!!
   while(TRUE)
   {
      output_toggle(PIN_A0);
      delay_ms(500);
   }
}


Code:

#include <18F2550.h>
#device adc=8

#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES WDT128                   //Watch Dog Timer uses 1:128 Postscale
#FUSES INTRC_IO                 //Internal RC Osc, no CLKOUT

#FUSES NOMCLR                   //Master Clear pin used for I/O
#FUSES LPT1OSC                  //Timer1 configured for low-power operation
#FUSES NOXINST                  //Extended set extension and Indexed Addressing mode disabled (Legacy mode)
#FUSES PLL12                    //Divide By 12(48MHz oscillator input)
#FUSES CPUDIV4                  //System Clock by 4
#FUSES USBDIV                   //USB clock source comes from PLL divide by 2
#FUSES VREGEN                   //USB voltage regulator enabled

#use delay(clock=8000000)
//#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,xmit=PIN_B6,rcv=PIN_B7,bits=8)


So, I decided to use a normal 20 Mhz Xtal.
In this time it is worse, instead of working 4 times slower, it is working 20 times slower. The led stays 10s on, and then 10s off... and this is the code of it:

Code:

void main()
{

   setup_adc_ports(NO_ANALOGS|VSS_VDD);
   setup_adc(ADC_OFF);
   setup_wdt(WDT_OFF);
   setup_timer_0(RTCC_INTERNAL|RTCC_DIV_32);
   setup_timer_1(T1_INTERNAL|T1_DIV_BY_8);
   setup_timer_2(T2_DISABLED,0,1);
   setup_timer_3(T3_DISABLED|T3_DIV_BY_1);
   setup_comparator(NC_NC_NC_NC);
   setup_vref(FALSE);
   enable_interrupts(INT_TIMER0);
   enable_interrupts(INT_TIMER1);
   disable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
//Setup_Oscillator parameter not selected from Intr Oscillator Config tab

   // TODO: USER CODE!!
   while(TRUE)
   {
      output_toggle(PIN_A0);
      delay_ms(500);
   }
}



Code:

#include <18F2550.h>
#device adc=8

#FUSES NOWDT                    //No Watch Dog Timer
#FUSES WDT128                   //Watch Dog Timer uses 1:128 Postscale

//#use i2c(Master,Slow,sda=PIN_B0,scl=PIN_B1,force_hw)


I would be very grateful if you can help me with this Smile I am not sure on what I am doing wrong...

thanks a lot!!!

PD: I was using the wizard for the configuration

Your delay definition shows 2Mhz...

Sorry, I confused, normally it is 20Mhz, I just changed it to 2Mhz, to see how it was affected. The conclusion was that delay_ms where 10 times faster, but the timer interruptions where as slow as before. So I do not know why the clock is going much slower (with the extarnal Xtal and the internal clock).
And I do not know why is this. :( Does anybody see anything wrong in the configuration #FUSES?

Thanks again Smile

You have not told us what you expect the timer to do.
You show no code that involves the timer at all...

However some comments:
You are enabling two interrupts, but only show a handler for one. This _will_ cause disaster. You _must_, have a handler present for any interrupt you enable.
However you then don't enable the global interrupt, so no interrupts are going to occur.

Timer0, on a system at 20MHz, with your 'setup', will call it's interrupt every:

20000000/(4*32*65536)th second

2.384 times per second.

At 8MHz, every 1.04 seconds.

Best Wishes
