The Usart Bla bla bla: The command line arguments #15

May 18th, 2010 No comments

The getopt function
int getopt(int argc, char * const argv[], const char *optstring);
extern char *optarg;
extern int optind, opterr, optopt;
The getopt function is used to parse command option. The parameters argc and argv are the argument count and argument array as passed to the “command”. The argument optstring is a string of recognized option characters; if a character is followed by a colon, the option takes an argument.

My U[S]ART implementation

My USART software is based on the ATMEL application note AVR306 : Using the AVR® UART in C.

The original source code of the application note was changed to support receiver error and to support  some of the capabilities of the avr UART interface databit (5..8 ), stop bit (1-2) and parity check (none, odd and even).

UART  Data Register Empty Interrupt

As described the USART can generate interrupt if the data register is empty. The interrupt could be enabled setting the Data Register Empty Interrupt Enable(UDRIE0) . 

The USART Data Register Empty ISR will be executed until the UDRE0 is set (if the global interrupts are enabled).

Interrupt from the USART

Before to speak about the interrupts implementation of the USART, I want to say a little bit regarding the “Interrupts” and then it will follow by a description of the usage of the USART interrupts if one of the following conditions happen:

Frame format

The frame formats supported by the Atmega is the standard UART frame format, specifically it accepts all 30 combinations of the following as valid frame formats:

 1 start bit

 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 data bits

 no, even or odd parity bit

Receiver’s Errors 

The USART Receiver has three Error Flags: Frame Error (FE0), Data OverRun (DOR0) and Parity Error (UPE0). All can be accessed by reading UCSR0A

Transmission

The USART Transmitter is enabled setting the Transmit Enable (TXEN) bit in the UCSR0B Register. When the Transmitter is enabled, the normal port operation of the TxD0 pin is overridden by the USART and given the function as the Transmitter’s serial output.
