1 TB3262 avr1000b : Getting Started with Writing C-Code for AVR MCUsIntroductionAuthors: Cristina Ionescu, Cristian S biu , Microchip Technology technical brief provides the recommended steps to successfully program the AVR microcontrollers (MCUs) andto define coding guidelines to help Writing more readable and reusable programming languages have become a necessity due to the imposed short development time and high-quality requirements. They make it easier to maintain and reuse code due to better portability and readability than thelow-level instructions specific for each microcontroller language alone does not ensure high readability and reusability, but good coding style does.

2 Therefore,the AVR MCU peripherals, header files and drivers are designed according to this most widely used high-level language for AVR microcontrollers is C, so this document will focus on Cprogramming. To ensure compatibility with most AVR C compilers, the code examples in this document are writtenusing ANSI C coding document contains code examples developed with the Atmel Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE).Most code examples are compatible with other IDEs, presented in Section 5: Further Steps. 2020 Microchip Technology Inc.

Data Sheet Module Structure and Naming ConventionsThe first step in Writing C-Code for a microcontroller is to know and understand what type of information can be foundin the data sheet of the device used for programming. The data sheet contains information about the features, thememories, the core and the peripheral modules of the microcontroller, the functional description of the peripheralmodules, the peripherals base addresses, the names and addresses of the registers, and other functional andelectrical How to Find the Data SheetAny documentation related to Microchip products can be found at: Microchip Data SheetsThe device data sheets, for the device families of interest in this document, can be found at.

The pinout is contained in the Pinout, Pin Configurationssection, or any other name convention, depending on the device. The pinout of the ATmega809/1609/3209/4809 48-pin devices is presented in Figure 1-1. TB3262 Data Sheet Module Structure and Naming .. 2020 Microchip Technology Inc.

If an evaluation board isused, such as AVR128DA48 Curiosity Nano, the user needs to know how the microcontroller s pins are allocated onthe specific board. The information is available on the AVR128DA48 Curiosity Nano webpage, in the AVR128DA48 Curiosity Nano Schematics document.

TB3262 Data Sheet Module Structure and Naming .. 2020 Microchip Technology Inc. Technical BriefDS90003262B-page Modules DescriptionAn AVR microcontroller is comprised of several building blocks: AVR CPU, SRAM, Flash, EEPROM and severalperipheral modules called module types. Throughout this document, all peripheral modules will be referred to AVR microcontroller families can have one or more instances of a given module type.

8 All instances have thesame features and functions. Some module types are a subset of others and inherit some of their features. Theinherited features are fully compatible with the respective module type. For example, the subset module for a timercan have fewer compare and capture channels than a full timer 1-2. Modules Types, Instances, Registers and BitsMODULE0 MODULEnRegisterBit 0 Module TypeRegisterRegisterRegisterRegisterRegi sterRegisterRegisterBit 7 Bit 0 Bit 7A module type can be the Universal Synchronous-Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (USART), while the moduleinstance is, , USART0, where the 0 suffix indicates the instance is USART number 0.

9 For simplicity, a moduleinstance will be referred to as a module throughout this document, unless there is a need to module has a fixed base address in the I/O memory map, and all registers contained in the module have fixedoffset addresses relative to the module base address. This way, each register will not only have an absolute addressin the I/O memory space, but also a relative address defined by its offset. The register offset addresses are equal forall instances of a module type, simplifying the task of Writing drivers that can be used for all modules of a specifictype.

10 The peripheral module address map can be found in the data sheet and shows the base address for module has several registers that contain control or status bits. All modules of a given type contain the sameset (or subset) of registers, and all these registers contain the same set (or subset) of control and status 1-1 presents the base address of some of the ATtiny804/1604 1-1.
