16F877A Working Slow( Newbie to CCS and circuits in general)
PostPosted: Wed Jun 25, 2014 6:46 am     Reply with quote

Hello everyone. 'Very Happy' I've designed a circuit which drives LCD(16x2), uses thermometer(18B20), uses a 3-wired Fan Motor and calculates the RPM of that said motor at the same time(At the. However, when I program this into 16F877A, it runs slow. I mean really slow. I was wondering if it was code-related(It may also be the design of the circuit). I know it is sloppy and very amateur coding, but anyways, if you could help me; that would be grand'Very Happy' . (I have collected these through various sources)

Code of the thermometer
Code:
 
ds1820.h

float ds1820_read()
{
 int8 busy=0, temp1, temp2;
 signed int16 temp3;
 float result;

 onewire_reset();
 onewire_write(0xCC);
 onewire_write(0x44);

 while (busy == 0)
  busy = onewire_read();

 onewire_reset();
 onewire_write(0xCC);
 onewire_write(0xBE);
 temp1 = onewire_read();
 temp2 = onewire_read();
 temp3 = make16(temp2, temp1);
 
 result = (float) temp3 / 16.0;  //Calculation for DS18B20 with 0.1 deg C resolution
 
// delay_ms(200);
 return(result);
}


My PWM controller code for the thermometer


Code:


1wire.h

/***********************1Wire Class***********************/
/*Description: This class handles all communication */
/* between the processor and the 1wire */
/* sensors.
/*********************************************************/

/*-------1-wire definitions-------*/
#define ONE_WIRE_PIN PIN_B0

/*******************1-wire communication functions********************/


void onewire_reset()  // OK if just using a single permanently connected device
{
output_low(ONE_WIRE_PIN);
delay_us( 500 ); // pull 1-wire low for reset pulse
output_float(ONE_WIRE_PIN); // float 1-wire high
delay_us( 500 ); // wait-out remaining initialisation window.
output_float(ONE_WIRE_PIN);
}

/*********************** onewire_write() ********************************/
/*This function writes a byte to the sensor.*/
/* */
/*Parameters: byte - the byte to be written to the 1-wire */
/*Returns: */
/*********************************************************************/

void onewire_write(int data)
{
int count;

for (count=0; count<8; ++count)
{
  output_low(ONE_WIRE_PIN);
  delay_us( 2 ); // pull 1-wire low to initiate write time-slot.
  output_bit(ONE_WIRE_PIN, shift_right(&data,1,0)); // set output bit on 1-wire
  delay_us( 60 ); // wait until end of write slot.
  output_float(ONE_WIRE_PIN); // set 1-wire high again,
  delay_us( 2 ); // for more than 1us minimum.
}
}

/*********************** read1wire() *********************************/
/*This function reads the 8 -bit data via the 1-wire sensor. */
/* */
/*Parameters: */
/*Returns: 8-bit (1-byte) data from sensor */
/*********************************************************************/

int onewire_read()
{
int count, data;

for (count=0; count<8; ++count)
{
  output_low(ONE_WIRE_PIN);
  delay_us( 2 ); // pull 1-wire low to initiate read time-slot.
  output_float(ONE_WIRE_PIN); // now let 1-wire float high,
  delay_us( 8 ); // let device state stabilise,
  shift_right(&data,1,input(ONE_WIRE_PIN)); // and load result.
  delay_us( 120 ); // wait until end of read slot.
}

return( data );
}

hmm... really slow....

1) have you run a '1Hz LED' program in your PIC? Does it run at 1Hz?

2) floating point math is super slooooooow !!! Use integer math, scaled integers to really speed things up !

3) break it down a bit....and just read the temperature and display,does that work 100%?

Code:
#use delay(clock=20000000)


I see that your #fuse line is commented out I don't think the clock option will set the HS fuse

The clock option in #use delay should only be used with xtal or int option to set clock if you want to set oscillator multiplication or division or when your fuses are set correctly and you don't want the compiler messing with the fuses

Since your clock is 20m I am going to assume you are using a 20MHZ crystal because if I recall right the 16f877A does not have a internal clock that fast.

Try this
Code:
#fuses NOWDT, NOLVP
#use delay(xtal=20000000)


The above code will set the clock fuses correctly but there are others you should be setting at a minimum. Others may point out others but off the top of my head
