PIC18F97J60 interfacing with LT1661 chip - c

Currently I am trying to create a program that will output an analog signal to an LED using the LTC1661 chip with the PIC18F97J60.
The dac ltc1661 chip is connected to my board with the ports:
RC3 for SCK1
RC5 for SDO1
with the data pin being connected to my 8bit SPIBUF buffer.
Here is my code, its outputting to the led but I can't seem to make the led gradually increase in bright ness, its just a sudden on and off.
Any help would be appreciated.
#include "amt.h"
#include <p18f97j60.h>
int main(void) {
TRISCbits.RC3 = 0;
TRISCbits.RC5 = 0;
TRISCbits.RC7 = 0;
SSP1CON1 = 0b00100010; // Enable SPI, CKP=0, Master, Fosc/64
SSP1STATbits.CKE = 1; // CKE=1, (rising edge for shift register)
char temp;
while(1) {
//SSP1BUF = 0x00;
PORTCbits.RC7 = 0;
SSP1BUF = 0x98;
while(PIR1bits.SSPIF==0);
SSP1BUF = 0x00;
while(PIR1bits.SSPIF==0);
PORTCbits.RC7 = 1;
PORTCbits.RC7 = 0;
SSP1BUF = 0x98;
while(PIR1bits.SSPIF==0);
SSP1BUF = 0x04;
while(PIR1bits.SSPIF==0);
PORTCbits.RC7 = 1;
}

Issue in interfacing SPI e-ink display with PIC 18F46K22

I am using a PIC 18F46K22 in SPI master mode to communicate with a Waveshare 1.54" ePaper Module. The FOSC frequency is 8Mhz internal and SPI configuration is FOSC/4. So when I check the output on logic-analyzer some output bits are differ from expected. And there is some deviation in SCL.

Compare your logic analyser SCK and MOSI timing with that specified for the part at https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/1.54inch_e-Paper_Module:
Note that the MOSI (SDIN) state must be stable on the rising edge of SCK (SCLK). In your case the MOSI transitions are synchronous with the rising edge, and you have a clock transition before the MOSI has the correct D7=0 state. SPI timing is defined by both clock polarity and clock phase - giving four possible clock modes. Compare the Waveshare timing diagram with the 18F46K22 datasheet:
The Waveshare diagram suggests that either CKP=1/CKE=0, or CKP=0/CKE=1 may be used, you have:
SSP1STAT=0x00 ;
SSP1CON1=0x20 ;
Which is CKP=0/CKE=0 (which correlates with your logic analyser trace).
You need on of either:
SSP1STAT=0x20 ; // CKE=1
SSP1CON1=0x20 ; // CKP=0
or
SSP1STAT=0x00 ; // CKE=0
SSP1CON1=0x30 ; // CKP=1
Since idle state (controlled by CKP) of SCK is a don't-care, I suggest leaving that as-is and using the first suggestion - that seems more intuitive somehow.
Note also that your logic analyser must also be set to the same phase/polarity clock mode in order for its presentation of the data to be correct.

PIC32 UART: U1RXREG Register Never Contains Any Values Other Than 0

I've attached an image showing my oscilloscope readout which is from the code below. Context: I have a Pi and a PIC which need to communicate through UART connection. I've implemented my own flow control which can be seen in the image attached [RTS = Yellow Trace, CTS = Blue Trace, Rx = Green Trace]. The code runs through and is caught in the final switch case statement which turns on an LED. But when i debug the code, no values (well the only value which is read is zero) are read in. At first i thought that i'd configured my PIC clock wrong (which is used to derive the baud rate), but i don't think this is the case. Second i through the FIFO buffer was full of zeros only and considering that i'm sending only four packets of information to the PIC, and my FIFO is 4 registers deep that this was the reason why non of the information was appearing. So i executed a code which removes the dummy bytes but this did not work.
All that is received:
0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0><0> etc
I got the right settings selected: baud rate: 9600 data bits: 8 parity: none stop bits: 1
If anyone is willing to spend some time looking at my code, can you see any obvious errors?

In Read_UART_Data, you have:
while(!U1STAbits.URXDA)
c = (int)U1RXREG;
I think you're missing a semicolon because this is actually:
while (!U1STAbits.URXDA)
c = (int) U1RXREG;
This means that c is set only when the UART receiver is not ready.
What I think you meant is:
while (!U1STAbits.URXDA);
c = (int) U1RXREG;

No response from UART

I'm able to receive with the following code, but unfortunately, nothing is sent back. What am I doing wrong?

Open2USART(USART_TX_INT_OFF & USART_RX_INT_ON & USART_ASYNCH_MODE
& USART_EIGHT_BIT & USART_BRGH_HIGH, 51 );
RC2IF = 0; // reset RX2 flag
RC2IP = 0; // not high priority
RC2IE = 1; // Eneble RX2 interrupt
INTCONbits.PEIE = 1; // enable peripheral interrupts
INTCONbits.GIE = 1; // enable interrupts
RCSTA2bits.SPEN = 1; // enable USART
while(1){
}
}
void interrupt ISR () {
if(PIR3bits.RC2IF == 1) {
if(i<200) { // buffer size
MessageBuffer[i] = Read2USART(); // read byte from RX reg
if (MessageBuffer[i] == 0x0D) { // check for return key
puts2USART(MessageBuffer);
for(;i>0;i--)
MessageBuffer[i] = 0x00; // clear array
i=0;
return;
}
i++;
RC2IF = 0; // clear RX flag
} else {
puts2USART(MessageBuffer);
for(;i>0;i--)
MessageBuffer[i] = 0x00; // clear array
i = 0;
return;
}
}
}
I'm transmitting the 0x41 hex code, I checked with the scope and see that is is being received. And according to the code I have, an echo of the received data should be sent back. When I check the TX pin, nothing is happening.
Add USART_CONT_RX to Open2USART to enable continuous receive.
Also, it's a good idea to do the minimum necessary in the interrupt service routine. Consider something like:
void interrupt ISR () {
char data;
if(PIR3bits.RC2IF == 1) {
data = Read2USART(); // always read byte from RX reg (clears RC2IF)
if(i<200) { // buffer size
MessageBuffer[i] = data; // read byte from RX reg
i++;
}
else{
// flag buffer full error
}
}
}
and doing the rest of what you are doing in the while(1) loop.

MicroChip dsPic33, UART RX interrupt is not being called

Good afternoon,
I've configured my RX interrupt using the following simple function.
char c;
void __attribute__((interrupt, no_auto_psv)) _U1RXInterrupt( void )
{
IFS0bits.U1RXIF = 0; // Clear RX Interrupt flag
c = U1RXREG;
}
The problem is, UART transmits fine, but the interrupt service routine is never entered when it gets sent a character. I can trace with a scope that the character is actually sent without issues, but the interrupt does not get triggered.
The device used for communication is TTL-232R-3v3. The device is running at 3.3V
The actual model number of the dspic33 is p33FJ128MC802
The programming environment is Mplab 8 and the compiled is XC16
Is there a missing setting to perhaps enable the interrupt? What could be missing?
Thanks,

Check if the pin has additional functionality. Typically this is AD (analog pin). Make sure you turn off all analog, via the ADP or ANSEL registers (type and number varies depending on exact chip) E.g. I have this routine (I use both 33F and 33E and a high and low pincount one of both, hence the ifdefs)
void analogoff(void){
#if defined(__dsPIC33F__)
ADPCFG =0xFFFF;
AD1PCFGH=0xFFFF;
AD1PCFGL=0xFFFF;
#endif
#if defined(__dsPIC33E__)
#if !defined(__dsPIC33EP256MU806__)
ANSELA=0;
#endif
ANSELB=0;
ANSELC=0;
ANSELD=0;
ANSELE=0;
ANSELG=0;
#endif
}
Also, make absolutely sure the oscillator and thus the part's speed is correct, though if TX has the correct baudrate (scope!) that is probably ok.

MicroC rs-485, pic16f887 String sending problems

How can I send the string "MY STRING" from a master pic to a slave?
I'm using MicroC RS-485 library example:
http://www.mikroe.com/download/eng/documents/compilers/mikroc/pro/pic/help/rs-485_library.htm
Im trying to send string from master to slave: and seting dat[7] = "my string"; expecting dat[7] on slave with my string but im geting empty value...
Original code in the link bottom.
Master
char dat[10]; // buffer for receving/sending messages
char i,j;
sbit rs485_rxtx_pin at RC2_bit; // set transcieve pin
sbit rs485_rxtx_pin_direction at TRISC2_bit; // set transcieve pin direction
// Interrupt routine
void interrupt() {
RS485Master_Receive(dat);
}
void main(){
long cnt = 0;
ANSEL = 0; // Configure AN pins as digital I/O
ANSELH = 0;

dat[0] = 0xAA;
dat[1] = 0xF0;
dat[2] = 0x0F;
dat[4] = 0; // ensure that message received flag is 0
dat[5] = 0; // ensure that error flag is 0
dat[6] = 0;
dat[7] = "MY STRING";
RS485Master_Send(dat,1,160);
RCIE_bit = 1; // enable interrupt on UART1 receive
TXIE_bit = 0; // disable interrupt on UART1 transmit
PEIE_bit = 1; // enable peripheral interrupts
GIE_bit = 1; // enable all interrupts
while (1){
// upon completed valid message receiving
// data[4] is set to 255
cnt++;
if (dat[5]) { // if an error detected, signal it
PORTD = 0xAA; // by setting portd to 0xAA
}
if (dat[4]) { // if message received successfully
cnt = 0;
dat[4] = 0; // clear message received flag
j = dat[3];
for (i = 1; i <= dat[3]; i++) { // show data on PORTB
PORTB = dat[i-1];
} // increment received dat[0]
dat[0] = dat[0]+1; // send back to master
Delay_ms(1);
RS485Master_Send(dat,1,160);
}
if (cnt > 100000) {
PORTD ++;
cnt = 0;
RS485Master_Send(dat,1,160);
if (PORTD > 10) // if sending failed 10 times
RS485Master_Send(dat,1,50); // send message on broadcast address
}
}
}
Slave:
char dat[9]; // buffer for receving/sending messages
char i,j;
sbit rs485_rxtx_pin at RC2_bit; // set transcieve pin
sbit rs485_rxtx_pin_direction at TRISC2_bit; // set transcieve pin direction
// Interrupt routine
void interrupt() {
RS485Slave_Receive(dat);
}
void main() {
ANSEL = 0; // Configure AN pins as digital I/O
ANSELH = 0;
C1ON_bit = 0; // Disable comparators
C2ON_bit = 0;
PORTB = 0;
PORTD = 0;
TRISB = 0;
TRISD = 0;
PORTA = 0;
TRISA = 0;
UART1_Init(9600); // initialize UART1 module

}
if (dat[5]) { // if an error detected, signal it by
PORTD = 0xAA; // setting portd to 0xAA
dat[5] = 0;
}
if (dat[4]) { // upon completed valid message receive
dat[4] = 0; // data[4] is set to 0xFF
j = dat[3];
for (i = 1; i <= dat[3];i++){
PORTB = dat[i-1];
}
dat[0] = dat[0]+1; // increment received dat[0]
Delay_ms(1);
RS485Slave_Send(dat,1); // and send it back to master
}
}
}
char dat[9]; defines an array of 9 bytes, so dat[7] = "MY STRING"; will only store a truncated address not the actual string. memcpy can be used to copy strings from one buffer to another.
see: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/memcpy/
dat[7]=="MY STRING" will not work as your comparing the 2 byte address of the string literal "MY STRING" with the single byte stored at dat[7]. If you need to compare strings for differences, strcmp works.
see: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/strcmp/
