USART parity problem on 18f8722
PostPosted: Tue Dec 05, 2006 3:33 am     Reply with quote
Hi everyone,

I have a problem with pic 18f8722.

When i try to compile :
Code:
#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=O,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,bits=9)


The compiler answer :
Quote:
*** Error 100 "D:\TEMP\test.h" Line 5(5,61): USE parameter value is out of range Too many bits


The compilation is a success when i put :

Code:
#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=N,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,bits=9)

OR
Code:
#use rs232(baud=9600,parity=O,xmit=PIN_C6,rcv=PIN_C7,bits=8)


But I need odd parity and 9 bits... So I don't know how to do !!?
Someone have an idea ?

Thanks for answers.

Check the data sheet for this part. I don't think it has hardware support for parity.

It is worse than this.
The UART in the PICs, does not support parity. It supports the transmission of 8 or 9bits, and it is up to the software to use this ninth bit to generate parity. The CCS driver does this. So selecting 8bits, with parity, enables the transmission of 9bit data, with the ninth bit being the parity bit. You therefore cannot on any PIC generate 9 bit data with parity (using the hardware).

You could set it up like this.

Then upon the RDA interrupt, read the buffer, catch the parity, clear the buffer.

I just hope the "errors" prevents the hardware usart from detecting framming errors.
