Arduino uno r3 programming tutorial12/10/2023 To solve your problem (for serial communication) I sugest you to use "read/write from/to a file" programming method. See you soon in my next tutorial on bare metal programming in Arduino Uno.Forget Tserial.h lib. Like you, I want to improve and learn new things, so leave some feedback in the comments below. Look at your Arduino Uno! The led is blinking! eeprom blink_led blink_led.hexįinally, we can upload the binary file: >$ avrdude -F -V -c arduino -p ATMEGA328P -P /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200 -U flash:w:blink_led.hex We create the executable: >$ avr-gcc -mmcu=atmega328p blink_led.o -o blink_ledĪnd we convert the executable to a binary file: >$ avr-objcopy -O ihex -R. In particular, the _BV macro that executes a left bit shift of 1 by the number of positions specified as the argument. When we include the I/O header file, we also include the "avr/sfr_defs.h" file in which are defined some useful macros we are going to use in our code. The other header file we include "avr/delay.h" is used only for the wait function. ![]() For further information on this header file, I suggest you read the official documentation, which is useful and well-done, and I do not think that I can explain it better than the documentation does. We need to include "avr/io.h" that contains all the utilities to manage the I/O of the microcontroller. #include #include #define MS_DELAY 3000 int main (void) Here's the code to blink the built-in led ( blink_led.c ). We have already seen the first two registers work, the third one (PIN) is used, as the name suggests, to read the input value when we use that pin in input mode. To handle each block of pins, we need three registers: the data direction register (DDR), the data register (PORT), and the input register (PIN). In this file "/usr/lib/avr/include/avr/iom328p.h", we can see all the definition useful to manage the registers of the Atmega328p. Go back to the Arduino Uno reference design we can see that each port register maps to a particular block of pins, the IOH block to PORTB, the AD block to PORTC and the IOL block to PORTD. In particular, we set to 1 the fifth bit of the register DDRB, in this way, we say that we want to use the pin associated with the fifth bit as output. So, setting the fifth bit of the register PORTB of the microcontroller means setting HIGH the pin 13 of the Arduino Uno and vice versa.īut, that is not sufficient to control the pin, because we also need to specify if we want to use that pin as input or output.įor this purpose, we have different 8-bit registers in the Atmega328p called Data Direction Register (DDR). That means that the Atmega328p maps the pin 13 of the Arduino Uno board to the PORTB, in particular to the fifth bit of the PORTB. Try to locate the pin 13 (written in green) in the IOH block and following the circuit (we see that the built-in led is attached to that pin) we "arrive" to a label PB5. We want to blink the built-in led that is attached to the digital pin 13 of the Arduino board. In the other two blocks (IOL, IOH), we have the digital pins. The AD block represents the analog pins of the Arduino Uno board. On the bottom-right of the image above, we can see three blocks labeled with IOL, IOH, and AD. Otherwise, the Arduino Uno reference design is particularly useful to fulfill our task. Here we can find the official datasheet of the Atmega328p, which is quite large and full of details, but we do not need all this info. In particular, the Arduino Uno has the Atmega328p on it. The avr-gcc toolchain does not know the Arduino Uno layout, but we need to deal directly with the microcontroller mounted on it. Type in the terminal avr- and press the tab twice (do not press enter) to see all the tools installed, and type avrdude -v to see the version of avrdude installed.īefore going deep into the c code that will blink the build-in led of the Arduino Uno board, we need to understand what we will do. ![]() >$ sudo apt-get install gcc-avr binutils-avr avr-libc >$ sudo apt-get install avrdude >$ sudo apt-get update >$ sudo apt-get upgrade -yĪnd then we install the package required by avr and avrdude. The commands to install the tools are for Ubuntu/Debian machine.įirst, we update the package. Using avr-objcopy, we can translate the executable into a binary file that can be uploaded in the Arduino board using avrdude. ![]() Then through avr-gcc, we link the system libraries to the object file to produce the executable or the ELF file. So, we are going to compile using avr-gcc the source code (written in C) to obtain the corresponding object file. The Arduino IDE uses the avr-gcc compiler and avrdude to upload our program in the microcontroller. ![]() We will see how the Arduino IDE works under the hood. In this tutorial, we are going to see how to program the Arduino Uno without using the Arduino IDE.
