Problem using 2nd I2C port on 18F8722
PostPosted: Wed Jan 18, 2006 6:22 am     Reply with quote

I need to use both *hardware* I2C ports on an 18F8722.

I'm just testing one of them at the moment, and I've come across a problem.

My code contains the following:-

Code:
// define i2c hardware for the fram device
#use i2c(MASTER,FAST,SDA=PIN_D5,SCL=PIN_D6,FORCE_HW)

/* Write address to external ram */

void ext_ram_write_addr(int16 addr) {
   // start i2c cycle
   i2c_start();
   // send "write" command
   i2c_write(FRAM_WRITE);
   // send address MSB then LSB
   i2c_write(make8(addr, 1));
   i2c_write(make8(addr, 0));
}

As you can see, I'm using the 2nd port (pins D5 amd D6), which should use all the SSP2 registers and bits.

But now look at the listing file ...

Code:
.................... // define i2c hardware for the fram device
.................... #use i2c(MASTER,FAST,SDA=PIN_D5,SCL=PIN_D6,FORCE_HW) 
*
02892:  BCF    F63.7         <---   SSP2CON1, WCOL bit
02894:  BCF    F9E.3         <---   PIR1, SSP1IF bit  **** WRONG ****
02896:  MOVFF  937,F66
0289A:  MOVLW  02
0289C:  BTFSC  F63.7
0289E:  BRA    28AA
028A0:  BTFSS  F9E.3         <---   PIR1, SSP1IF bit  **** WRONG ****
028A2:  BRA    28A0
028A4:  MOVLW  00
028A6:  BTFSC  F62.6         <---   SSP2CON2, ACKSTAT bit
028A8:  MOVLW  01
028AA:  MOVWF  01
028AC:  RETLW  00
*
028E4:  BSF    F62.3
028E6:  BTFSC  F62.3
028E8:  BRA    28E6
028EA:  BTFSC  00.0
028EC:  BCF    F62.5
028EE:  BTFSS  00.0
028F0:  BSF    F62.5
028F2:  BSF    F62.4
028F4:  BTFSC  F62.4
028F6:  BRA    28F4
028F8:  MOVFF  F66,01
028FC:  RETLW  00

The code is clearly waiting for the SSP1IF bit which is associated with the *first* I2C channel.

Shouldn't the code be looking at the SSP2IF bit (located in PIR3) ?

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug ?

I think it's a bug. You should report it to CCS support.
If you do so, and your maintenance has run out, they
will usually let you download the fixed version when
it becomes available.

If you need the 2nd i2c port to work right now, you
will have to write your init function. Use the ASM
code in the .LST file as a guide, and re-write the CCS
code in C, using direct register access where needed.
Of course, fix the CCS bugs as you do it.

Example:

Quote:
(MASTER,FAST,SDA=PIN_D5,SCL=PIN_D6,FORCE_HW)
*
02892: BCF F63.7 <--- SSP2CON1, WCOL bit
02894: BCF F9E.3 <--- PIR1, SSP1IF bit *** WRONG ***
02896: MOVFF 937,F66
0289A: MOVLW 02
0289C: BTFSC F63.7
0289E: BRA 28AA
028A0: BTFSS F9E.3 <--- PIR1, SSP1IF bit *** WRONG ***
028A2: BRA 28A0
028A4: MOVLW 00
028A6: BTFSC F62.6 <--- SSP2CON2, ACKSTAT bit


Translate the above to C code:
Code:

#byte PIR3 = 0xFA4
#bit SSP2IF = PIR3.7

#byte SSP2CON1 = 0xF63
#bit  WCOL2 = SSP2CON1.7  // Call it "WCOL2"

void init_i2c_port2(void)
{
WCOL2 = 0;
SSP2IF = 0;
.
.
.
// etc.

}

You didn't mention problems with the i2c functions for the 2nd port,
such as i2c_write(), i2c_read(), etc. You may have to write your
own versions of those, two. If it's just the init code that's wrong,
you could call the fixed init routine at the start of main().
Also, the bad CCS code is doing things to the i2c port 1. I didn't
analyze it, but it's possible that you may need to write new code
for port 1 as well. Maybe it's better just to get CCS to fix it all.

Same Problem w/18f6722
PostPosted: Tue Jan 24, 2006 11:48 am     Reply with quote

I'm having what seems to be the same problem on a 18f6722. I need to use SSP1 for an SPI port (since I'm adding to a pre-existing PCB), so I need SSP2 for I2C. I sent an email to CCS support yesterday morning about this but haven't heard a response yet.

Code:

....................   #use I2C(MASTER,SDA=PIN_D5,SCL=PIN_D6,SLOW,FORCE_HW)
*
22C2:  BCF    F63.7
22C4:  BCF    F9E.3
22C6:  MOVFF  7E9,F66
22CA:  MOVLW  02
22CC:  BTFSC  F63.7
22CE:  BRA    22DA
22D0:  BTFSS  F9E.3
22D2:  BRA    22D0
22D4:  MOVLW  00
22D6:  BTFSC  F62.6
22D8:  MOVLW  01
22DA:  MOVWF  01

22DC:  RETLW  00

I have emailed CCS and I am also waiting for a response.

same issue here
PostPosted: Thu Nov 30, 2006 11:58 pm     Reply with quote

I'm trying to use the second hardware ssp port on an 18f45j10. The compiler does not recognize the pins i am specifying as the hardware pins and is instead creating i2c software routines.

I noticed this thread from earlier in the year but there was no follow up.

I also sent an email to support a week ago but have received no response.

I'm wondering if someone here who dealt with the previous problem knows whether it was resolved. And if so, is this is a compiler problem or perhaps just something chip specific missing from the header file that would be an easy fix.

thanks,

Pete

Post your #use i2c() statements and the version of your compiler.

Code:

#include <18f45j10>
#fuses H4_SW,NOWDT
#use delay(clock=40,000,000)

#use i2c(slave,SDA=PIN_D1,SCL=PIN_D0,address=0x4e,FORCE_HW )      //port 2
//#use i2c(slave,SDA=PIN_C4,SCL=PIN_C3,address=0x4e,FORCE_HW)      //port 1


In my app I'm actually using port 1 as SPI but after finding that Port 2 i2c hardware wasn't working I used the above code to demonstrate to myself that the compiled results for the two #use statements generates completely different code.

If you switch the comment marks from line to line you'll see how they compile differently. Removing the FORCE_HW doesn't affect the result.

I have compiler version 4.016

I tested it, and I can confirm it doesn't use the hardware MSSP2 module.

You should report it to CCS support. Give them a compilable test
program and show a little bit of the .LST file, to explain the problem.
If your maintenance has run out, they'll let you download the fixed
version when they fix it. Give them your CCS user number.

If you have PCWH, maybe you could fix it with the Device Editor.
I don't have PCWH, so I don't know if it supports enabling the MSSP2
from the Device Editor.

If you need to get the 2nd MSSP running immediately, you'll have to
write your own routines. In the following thread, I try to help someone
write routines to use the MSSP2 for SPI mode. You could do something
similar for i2c.
http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22705

You'll have to write all these routines:
setup_i2c_mssp2()
i2c_start_mssp2()
i2c_stop_mssp2()
i2c_write_mssp2()
i2c_read_mssp2()
i2c_isr_state_mssp2()
i2c_poll_mssp2()

Here's some sample code for the i2c_isr_state() function.
It could help your function that works with the MSSP2.

Commented .LST file for the i2c_isr_state() function:

C source code for i2c_isr_state():

thanks for the confirmation.

I reported this to support a week ago and was issued an identification number.

Every time I check it says that:

Your e-mail has been assigned to someone in C Tech Support.
As of yet, we have not had time to further review your e-mail.

My original bug report has not yet been answered, and as you can see I reported it back in January this year Shocked so don't hold your breath !!

To follow up on this issue, the problem, at least in regards to the 18f45j10 is now fixed as of PCH compiler version 4.017.

It correctly compiles using hardware based routines for the second I2C port.

Thanks

Pete
