pin timing of 16F887
PostPosted: Wed Jun 10, 2009 5:07 pm     Reply with quote

CCS Ver 3.249 18F452/16F887 running at 18.432000MHz
I'm debugging why my LCD isn't working on port A.
Code runs OK with 18F452 but if I swap to 16F887 it doesn't.
Looking at pin A0 with scope the 18F452 makes a 30uS wide signal but the 16F887 is much smaller, 1.4uS. Can anyone tell me why?
Code:
#include <18F452.h>
//#include <16F887.h>
#use delay(clock=18432000)
#use rs232(baud=1200,errors,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,parity=e,enable=PIN_C5,stream=CIM)
#use rs232(baud=19200,xmit=PIN_D7,invert,stream=DEBUG)
#case
#zero_ram
#define LCD_RS   PIN_A0 //<-- oscope on this pin, other have simular width
#define LCD_E    PIN_A1 //note no RW
#define LCD_DB4  PIN_A2
#define LCD_DB5  PIN_A3
#define LCD_DB6  PIN_A4
#define LCD_DB7  PIN_A5

#include "LCD.c"
//#include "flex_lcd.c"

//======================= Main ==============================
void main(void)
{
  setup_adc_ports(NO_ANALOGS);
  #define BEEP   PIN_C0
  #define RELAY  PIN_C1
  #define XMTHEN PIN_C5

  output_low(BEEP);
  output_low(RELAY);
  output_low(XMTHEN);//turn off the TX_enable
  //make sure we start with relays not activated
  //===================== STARTUP SCREEN=====================//
  fprintf(DEBUG,"Starting\n\r");
  lcd_init();
  while(1)
  {
  lcd_putc("\fHello There");
  //fprintf(DEBUG,".");
  }
}

..update ..
Tried a 16F877 and it works,.. but not 16F887

I just installed vs. 3.249 and I can't find the 16F88x files in it.
Did you add the 16F887 by yourself, using the Device Editor ?

Yes. I used the 16F877A as starting point.. both have 8K words for programming and 256 data eeprom and portA at 5 and trisa at 0x85.
I'll try it again,... I seem to remember guessing at how to do something or another. I'm sure re-doing it will refresh my memory.

..update.. still can't fix it.
would a 16F877a hex programed onto the 887 work? at least for port A?

Part of the problem is likely the ANSEL and ANSELH registers in the
16F887. They power-up as all 1's, which sets much of Port A and Port B
as analog pins. If you just defined those register addresses with #byte
statements and then set both registers to 0x00 at the start of main(),
it might cure your problems.

Quote:
setup_adc_ports(NO_ANALOGS);

Because you created the 16F887 with the Device Editor, there's no
guarantee that this line is writing to the correct registers. I would
delete this line and do it manually, as I suggested above.

Be aware that many of the built-in functions may not work correctly
with your created version of the 16F887.
