| Sleep Mode PIC16F877 |

How can I configure a sleep mode for PIC16F877 and how to quit from sleep mode in order to enable the PIC to read from the sensors.
Can anyone help me in formulating a code for doing that. |

hi,
You need to have an interrupt to wake up from the sleep mode.
You may do so by using pin B0 (specific interrupt pin), or port_B interrupts on change, or (im not sure) timer interrupts.
You need to set up the interrupt servce routine (ISR), enable interrupts.
You need something to provide the external interrupt signal,
a RTC, a control signal, a comparator, a 555 timer, what ever.

CCS has an example file for the 16F877 to wake up from sleep by using
the #int_ext interrupt:

I got this error message A #DEVICE required before this line
when I want to use the example code
If I want to use a bush button of RB4 in ICD3 how can I manage that ?
| Code: |
#if defined(__PCM__)
#include <16F877.h>
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7) // Jumpers: 8 to 11, 7 to 12 to 12
#endif
// global flag to send processor into sleep mode
short sleep_mode;
// external interrupt when button pushed and released
#INT_EXT
void ext_isr() {
static short button_pressed=FALSE;
if(!button_pressed) // if button action and was not pressed
{
button_pressed=TRUE; // the button is now down
sleep_mode=TRUE; // activate sleep
printf("The processor is now sleeping.\r\n");
ext_int_edge(L_TO_H); // change so interrupts on release
}
else // if button action and was pressed
{
button_pressed=FALSE; // the button is now up
sleep_mode=FALSE; // reset sleep flag
ext_int_edge(H_TO_L); // change so interrupts on press
}
if(!input(PIN_B0)) // keep button action sychronized wth button flag
button_pressed=TRUE;
delay_ms(100); // debounce button
}
// main program that increments counter every second unless sleeping
void main() {
long counter;
sleep_mode=FALSE; // init sleep flag
ext_int_edge(H_TO_L); // init interrupt triggering for button press
enable_interrupts(INT_EXT);// turn on interrupts
enable_interrupts(GLOBAL);
printf("\n\n");
counter=0; // reset the counter
while(TRUE)
{
if(sleep_mode) // if sleep flag set
sleep(); // make processor sleep
printf("The count value is: %5ld \r\n",counter);
counter++; // display count value and increment
delay_ms(1000); // every second
}

It means you don't have the PCM compiler installed, or you don't have
the 16F877 selected in MPLAB, or in the CCS IDE. You've got to learn
how to use the compiler before you do a project.

The ICD3 programmer doesn't affect anything about using RB4 as an
interrupt. It's completely an unrelated topic. To use RB4, you would
have to use the #int_rb interrupt. But in the 16F877, this interrupt works
for pins B4-B7 all at the same time. You can't enable it for just one pin.
At your level of knowledge, this is too difficult. I suggest you use pin B0
with #int_ext. The #int_ext interrupt only uses Pin B0, and is much
easier for you to do. |

Regarding the error : Error 128 "C:\Users\kustaff\Desktop\bunage\T.c" Line 4(1,70): A #DEVICE required before this line
I ensured that all your step for detecting this error are confirmed but I still get this error despite I have been programming other codes and it worked !

It compiles OK for me. I copy-and-pasted it into an existing project for
the 16F877 in MPLAB (I commented out the other code for that project)
and it compiled without errors.
If I change the PIC in MPLAB menu for "Configure / Select Device" to
something else like 18F452, then I get the same error as you.
So, I still say that your configuration is probably incorrect.
What is your compiler version ? |
