PIC 16F767 rs232 Read Problems
PostPosted: Tue Mar 08, 2005 3:00 pm     Reply with quote

Hi I'm having the hardest time getting my 16F767 to properly read over the rs232 port. It reads in 1 character then puts out a whole bunch of garbage characters and then freezes.

Perhaps I'm missing something important in the set-up? Perhaps the compiler version isn't generating thr correct rs232 code??? (How do I check?)
Thanks! chipp

Using Hardware USART at 9600.
Using 20Mhz Ceramic Resonator as Clock.

Compiler: PCM 3.212

Code:

#include <16F767.h>
#use delay(clock=20000000)

// This is CCS's setup
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, parity=N, bits=8, brgh1ok)

void main() {
   char c;
   
   set_tris_a(0x00000000;
   set_tris_b(0x00000000);
   set_tris_c(0x10000000); // C7 rx, C6 tx

   SETUP_ADC(ADC_OFF);
   SETUP_ADC_PORTS(NO_ANALOGS);


   while(TRUE) {

      if(kbhit()) {
         c = getc();
         delay_ms(1);
         putc(c);
         delay_ms(1);
      }
   }
}

Try a more simple test program, and also include a #fuses statement.
Try sending characters to the PIC by typing in a terminal program.
You should see them echo'ed back to the terminal.
Code:
#include <16F767.h>
#fuses HS, NOWDT, NOPROTECT, BROWNOUT, PUT
#use delay(clock=20000000)
#use rs232(baud=9600, xmit=PIN_C6, rcv=PIN_C7, ERRORS)

void main()
{
char c;

while(1)
  {
   c = getc();
   putc(c);
  }
}
 


Note that this PIC doesn't support Low Voltage Programming, so the
LVP and NOLVP fuses are not an issue here.

It Works!

Thank you, simple as it is it works, it seems like setting the TRIS on Port C was somehow interferring, so I commented it out:

Code:

//    set_tris_c(0x10000000); // C7 rx, C6 tx

I had a similar problem, my pic received all what he transmitted!!

I solved setting in a correct way TrisC.

in your case 0x10000000 is a hexadecimal number not a binary one.

tri to set 0b10000000 or 0x80 in TRISC
