DIGITAL I/O LINES

The Mini Module GMM AM128 is provided with 36 TTL digital I/O lines, of the microprocessor

Atmel ATmega128L, that are all the signals of Ports PB, PC, PD, PE and MSNibble of PF.

These lines are connected directly to 40 pins connectors with standard grifo ® Mini Module pin out, allowing to be connected direclty to several interface cards.

By software it is possible to define and acquire the function and the status of these lines, and also to match them to peripheral devices (like Timer Counter, Interrupt, I 2 C BUS, SPI, etc.), simply programming some CPU internal registers.

For further information please refer to paragraph CONNECTIONS and PERIPHERAL DEVICES

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION.

SERIAL COMMUNICATION

On GMM AM128 there is always availability of two hardware serial lines that are completely software configurable for physical protocol (baud rate, stop bits number, lenght of character, etc) by simply programming some microprocessor registers as described in the manufacturer documentation or in the appendix of this manual.

The serial lines are connected to CN1 connector at TTL or RS 232 level, thanks to some on board dip switches configuration, so when the card must be connected in a network or at long distance or with other systems that use different electric protocol, the user must provide external drivers (RS 232,

RS 422, RS 485, Current loop, etc.). Please remember that on CN1 connector more than standard receive and transmit signals are available also other I/O signals that can be driven by software; these signals can be used to define the RS 485 line direction, to enable the RS 422 transmit drive or to generate an RS 232 handshake. For example it can be used the MSI 01 module that converts a TTL serial line in any other electric standards in a pratical and inexpensive way.

Please read SERIAL COMMUNICATION SELECTION paragraph of this manual or contact directly grifo ® technician for further explanation or any other necessary information.

CLOCK

On GMM AM128 module there are two separate and indipendent circuits based on crystals, that generate the clock signals for the microcontroller and the RTC module.

The first generates a 7,3728 MHz while the second generates a 32768 Hz.

The choice of using two circuits and two separated clock sources, has the advantage to reduce cost in the larger number of low, middle speed applications and to afford the high speed applications when necessary.

About speed and performances please remind that GMM AM128 has a RISC microcontroller on board, capable to execute in average one instruction per clock cycle.

So, considering the frequency of quartz installed, execution speed may be greater than 7 MIPS.

MEMORY DEVICES

The card is provided of 136.25K of memory divided with a maximum of 128K Bytes FLASH

EPROM, 4KBytes Bytes of internal SRAM, 4KBytes EEPROM and 240 Bytes in RTC module, reachable only through I 2 C BUS.

The memory configuration must be chosen considering the application to realize or the specific requirements of the user.

Thanks to on board EEPROM (and SRAM of RTC when the back up battery is connected) there is the possibility to keep data also when power supply is failed.

In this way the card is always able to maintain parameters, logged data, system status and configuration, etc. in each working conditions.

Whenever the amount of memory for data is not sufficient (i.e. for data loghin systems), it is always possible to connect external memory devices (with SRAM, EEPROM, FLASH technologies) through the comfortable and efficient SPI and I 2 C BUS interface of the card.

The addressing of memory devices is controlled by microcontroller as described in the component data sheet or in APPENDIX A of this manual.

I 2 C BUS INTERFACE

Standard pin out of 40 pins grifo ® Mini Module connector reserves two pins, 12 and 13, to I 2 C BUS interface. These signals are provided with a 4.7 k Ω pull-up on the Mini Module board.

GMM AM128 features a hardware I 2 C BUS interface and is managed through microcontroller inernal registers. It can work both as master or slave, in transmission or reception.

This interface allows to connect components featuring the same communication standard to expand locally the potentialities of Mini Module.

For this Mini Module, a rich serie of demo programs that explain how to use A/D and D/A converters, memories, temperature sensors, on-board RTC, etc. by a complete and well commented code is available.

Remarkable is the possibility to connect the grifo ® QTP operator panels serie through I 2 C BUS.

QTP are capable to manage alphanumeric and graphicdisplay and several models of keyboards, according to the model selected.

Mini Modules support cards manufactured by grifo ® (like GMB HR168) are provided also with a connector dedicated to I 2 C BUS, to easy the field connections.

Please remark that RTC with backed SRAM permanently takes the slave address A0, so user applications cannot use it.

For further information please refer to component data sheet or appendix A of this manual.

SPI INTERFACE

Mini Module grifo ® GMM AM128 is provided with a SPI serial inteface featured through a specific hardware section of the microcontroller.

Signals SCK, SDI and SDO of SPI interface are available respectively on pins 14, 15 and 18 of connector CN1.

All interface parameters are managed through microcontroller inernal registers.

For further information please refer to component data sheet or appendix A of this manual.

Page 8 GMM AM128 Rel. 5.00


DIP SWITCH

GMM AM128 Mini Module is provided with two dip switches (ab eight ways and a four ways) whose purpose is to set up several electric parameters of module itself and the card operating mode.

In fact DSW1 allows to decide whether serial interface USART0 must be buffered as RS 232 or TTL, in this latter case allowing to use and external buffer like RS 422, RS 485 or current loop drivers.

Four ways DSW2 has the same purpose, but for USART1.

DSW1 also allows to connect or not the back up battery of RTC + SRAM module.

In addition, status of some swithces can be acquired by software through reading specific microcontroller signals (PA2 and PA3).

SERIAL COMMUNICATION SELECTION

Serial communication lines of GMM AM128 can be buffered as RS 232 or TTL.

By software, it is possible to define physical communicatin protocol for each line setting some microcontroller internal registers.

Each serial interface (called USART0 and USART1) has its own group of registers for configuration, and can work in total independence respect to the other interface.

Electric protocol is selected by hardware and requires the dip switches to be configured correctly, as described in previous tables; the user can set any configuration in autonomy following the below reported information:

CONNECTOR SIGNALS INTERFACEMENT

To prevent possible connecting problems between GMM AM128 and the external systems, the user has to read carefully the previous paragraph information and he must follow these instrunctions:

- For RS 232 signals the user must follow the standard specifications of this protocol, defined by

CCITT normative.

- All TTL signals must follow the rules of this electric standard. The connected digital signals must be always referred to card ground (GND) and then the 0V level corresponds to logic state 0, while the +Vdc POW level corrisponds to logic state 1. The connection of these lines to devices of the controlled system (encoders, switches, proximity, electric valves, power relays, etc.) must be performed through proper power interfaces; it is preferible to adopt opto coupled interfaces that ensure an electric insulation between Mini Module electronic and external noisy, typically generated by power electronic.

- The inputs for analog comparators must be connected to signals generators featuring a low impedance in the range from 0 to +Vdc POW , to assure greater stability and precision.

- The inputs for A/D converter must be connected to signals generators featuring a low impedance in the range from 0 to +Vdc POW, to assure greater stability and precision.

- PWM signals generated by Timer Counter and OCM sections are TTL type so they must be buffered to interface the power circuitery. Typical interfaces can be current driver (if PWM signal is still required) or an intergrator circuit if analog voltage is required.

- Also I 2 C BUS and SPI signals are at TTL level, as defined by the same standards; for completeness it is remarked that in a network with several devices and rather long it is better to study the connection lay out and to set properly the output stage, the best operational modes and the programmable bit rate: all these conditions allow communications in any condition. On Mini

Module, signals SDA and SCL are pulled-up to +Vdc POW through 4.7 k Ω resistors.

POWER SUPPLY

Mini Module can be supplied by a tension in the range 3 ÷ 5 Vdc called +Vdc POW in this manual.

GMM AM128 design adopted all the circuital and componentistic options that reduce sensibility to noise and reduce consumption, including the possibility to switch the microcontroller to low consumption modes.

In optimal situation, the minimun consumption (in power down mode) is lower tham 1 mA, so it can, for example, increase battery life in case of portable applications.

For further information please refer to paragraph ELECTRIC FEATURES.

INTERRUPTS

A remarkable feature of GMM AM128 card is the powerful interrupt management.

Generates an interrupt INT0 of microprocessor.







Generate an internal interrupt. In detail the possible microcontroller interrupt sources are: Timer Counter, OCM, USART0, USART1, analog comparators, A/D converter, I 2 C BUS, SPI, EEPROM.

An interrupt management section, integrated in microcontroller, allows to enable, disable and mask

,so the user has the possibility to respond promptly and efficently to any external event.

The microcontroller has an interrupt section that let the user manage the 35 interrupt sources. So theapplication program has always the possibility to react promptly to every event.

JTAG INTERFACE

The microcontroller on board of GMM AM128 is provided with JTAG interface.

Signals of this interface (TDI, TDO, TMS and TCK) are available respectively on pins from 26 to

29 of CN1. Configuration registers of microcontroller must be carefully programmed to enable or disable JTAG functions.

B ) FLASH REPROGRAMMING

Mini Module programming is performed using th Boot Loader preprogrammed in the Flash of Mini

Module itself.

Such program allows to create a communication between Mini Module and the PC, and to use it to send a .hex file to code memory and/or EEPROM memory area of microcontroller.

Boot Loader does not allow to program configuration bits and security fuses of microcontroller, this can be done usigne ISP programming (please refer to appendix B of this manual).

The portion of Flash memory taken by the Boot Loader is 2 KBytes, this means that the last block of 1 KWord at the end of the memory is reserved to Boot Loader and is not available for user application any more.

Boot Loader communicates through PC serial port installing a specific utility (that can be downloaded for free from our website www.grifo.com or can be found in our CD) called

AVRBootloaderGrifo.exe. This utility allows to select the serial port to use end to select the files to program memories of Mini Module.

For some applications, use of an ISP programmer may be the only chance. Please refer to appendix

B for more information about ISP programming.

Combo box called "Com Port" allows to select the serial port to use for communication with Mini

Module.

Checking the ckeck box "Application Code" the file whose name is written in the text box on the right will be stored in Flash of Mini Module. To choose the file press the "Browse" button.

Chek box "EEPROM Code" performs the same operation described above, but writes to EEPROM.

There is also the possibility to use AVRBootloaderGrifo from DOS window, commands prompt, a command line or as an external tool of an IDE.

Option for command line are:

/com1 , /com2 , ... , /com9 Number of serial port used for communication.

Serial ports from COM1 to COM9 are supported

/f <FLASHProgram> Indicates the complete pathname of the .HEX file to write in

/e <EEPROMProgram> microcontroller FLASH memory

Indicates the complete pathname of the .HEX file to write in microcontroller EEPROM memory

For example:

AVRBootloaderGrifo.exe /com2 /f C:\Projects\MotorControl\Main.hex

opens a connection on serial port COM2 to the Boot Loader and sends the file Main.hex located in folder C:\Projects\MotorControl\.

To integrate AVRBootloaderGrifo.exe in a IDE, for example the one of BASCOM AVR (described at point C) the user must:

1) Open the window of menu Options | Programmer

2) In the text box Programmer choose "External Programmer"

3) Click the tab Other

4) In text box Program insert the complete pathname of AVRBootloaderGrifo.exe pressing Browse

5) In text box Parameters insert command line parameter for AVRBootloaderGrifo

Please remaind that the string {file} in the above mentioned text box is automatically replaces by

BASCOM AVR with the name of .hex file just generated.

Please refer to BASCOM AVR documentation for further information.

B1) Find on CD grifo ® and save to a comfortable position on your hard drive the demo program"d_am128u.hex". It can be found starting from main page following the path:

English | Examples tables | Mini Modules and Mini Block examples | GMM AM128

(please refer to figure 16). You may want to remove the read-only attribute.

B2) Connect the Mini Module to PC serial port makin the connection described at point A.

Close the terminal emulator.

B3) Indicate in combo box "Com Port" the serial port connected at the previous point.

B4) Check the check box "Application Code" and press the button "Browse" on the right, then select the file previously saved at point B1.

B5) Uncheck the check box "EEPROM Code", if checked.

B6) Press the button "Synch to Bootloader..." or the key combination Alt+S on the PC, then reset the Mini Module or turn off and then on its supply. The file is dowloaded into the

Mini Module. If this does not happen, and the program should indicate a "No repsonse from target bootloader", try to repeat the operation decreasing the time between pressure of button on the PC and reset of Mini Module. If the problem persists, check cable and connection.

B7) When operation is completed the program reports its status. In case of problems, check cable and connection.

B8) Start the terminal emulator configured like in point A2 and verify that the application program just downloaded is executed in internal Flash.

C ) GENERATING DEMO EXECUTABLE CODE

C1) Install on the hard disk of the development P.C. the software environment selected to develop the application program. As described in the chapter SOFTWARE

DESCRIPTION there are many different software tools that satisfy any customers requirements but here we remind only the most diffused as the BASCOM AVR, ICC

AVR, etc.

C2) On grifo ® CD in addition to file with the executable code of the demo program, described at point B2, there are also the source files of the same. These have an extension that identifies the used software development tools (for example d_am128u.bas for BASCOM

AVR or d_am128u.c for ICC AVR) and they are properly organized inside demo programs tables available on CD, together with possible definition file (for example: d_am128u.prj for ICC AVR). Once these files have been located they must be copied in a comfortable folder on the hard disk of development PC.

C3) Compile the source file by using the selected software tools: the file d_am128u.hex must be obtained equal to those available on grifo ® CD and already used at points B. This operation is very different according to the programming environment selected, so here follow the details:

SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION

A wide selection of software development tools can be obtained, allowing use of the module as a system for its own development, both in assembler and in other high level languages; in this way the user can easily develop all the requested application programs in a very short time.

Generally all software packages available for the mounted microprocessor, or for the AVR family, can be used.

Software packages purchased from grifo ® are always provided with example programs that show how to use each section of the board and a complete use documentation.

Remarkable are:

BASCOM AVR

It is a powerfull new integrated development environment for AVR microcontroller. The toolset incorporates an editor, optimising BASIC compiler, assembler and HEX creator. The BASIC compiler produces very tight AVR machine code by virtue of the fact it translates the BASIC source into actually run timeassembly code wich is optimised to run as fast as possible. The target AVR microcontroller therefore runs true assembly code rather than tokenised code wich is found in many other BASIC compilers. It is also provided with integrated simulator for source level debugging and optional external libraries to drive or simulate several external devices (likebadge readers, PS/2 keyboards, graphic and alphanumeric displays, etc.).

ICC AVR PRO

Cross compiler for C source program. It is a powerfull software tool that includes editor, ANSI C compiler, assembler, linker, library management program and project manager included in an easy to use integrated development environment for Windows and other P.C. operating systems. Library sources, floating point, integration with AVR studio, on line help and ANSI terminal emulator for target communication are provided too.

DDS MICRO C AVR

Low cost ross compiler for C source program. It is a powerful software tool that includes editor, C compiler (integer), assembler, optimizer, source linker and library in one easy to use integrated development environment. There are also included the library sources and many utilities programs.

The default IDE can be replaced by a new one named Micro IDE, that is more powerfull, for

Windows operating system and provided of many utility functions.

AVR Studio

It is a development tool for AVR family of microcontroller that fully control execution of program on AVR in circuit emulator or on the built in AVR instruction set simulator. AVR Studio supports source level execution of assembly and C programs generated by external compilers and assemblers.

The tolls is based on a set of windows for source, watch, registers, memory, peripherals, message and processor that enable the user to have full control of the status of every element in the execution target.

It also features an "application builder" to easy the generation of code to initialise all hardware peripherals (USART, SPI, Port, ADC, ect.) starting from a graphic interface.

There is also the remarkable possibility to drive the JTAG interface called "JTAG ICE" manufactured

Page 34 GMM AM128 Rel. 5.00

ITALIAN TECHNOLOGY grifo ® by Atmel.

A JTAG interface allows to enter the core of microcontroller to examine its status during execution of applcation program directly on the application hardware.

The user can insert both hardware and software breakpoints, and when execution is stopped the values contained in memory and internal registers can be examined.

JTAG interface also allows to reprogram the microcontroller memories.

Using JTAG interface several debugging problems are solved, increasing the possibility to eliminate bugs and drastically reducing the time required to obtain the final application completely debugged.

PERIPHERAL DEVICES SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION

Below there is a specific description of the software managements of the on board peripheral devices.

Whenever the reported documentation is not sufficient, please search a more detailed description of the devices in manufacturing company data sheets. Furthermore in this chapter the microprocontroller internal peripheral devices are not described so if their programmation is necessary, please refer to appendix A of this manual.

In the following paragraphs the D7

÷

D0 and .0

÷

7 indications denote the eight bits of the combination involved in I/O operations.

ACTIVITY LEDS

The GMM AM128 allows software management of activity or status LEDs LD1 and LD2, through an I/O line of the microcontroller, with the following corrispondence:

PA0 = 0

PA0 = 1

->

->

LD1 ON

LD1 OFF

PA1 = 0

PA1 = 1

-> LD2 ON

-> LD2 OFF

It is important to remind that PA0 and PA1 are not connected to CN1.

The signals PA0 and PA1 are set high after reset or power on, so during these phases LEDs are OFF or disabled.

DIP SWITCH

GMM AM128 allows to read by software the status of two dip switches, DSW1.7 e 8, through two

I/O signals of microcontroller:

DSW1.7 ON -> PA2 is 0

DSW1.7 OFF -> PA2 is 1

DSW1.8 ON -> PA3 is 0

DSW1.8 OFF -> PA3 is 1

It is important to remind that PA2 and PA3 are not connected to CN1.

Page 36 GMM AM128 Rel. 5.00


BACKED SRAM + SERIAL RTC

Mini Module GMM AM128 is provided with a complete Real Time Clock capable to manage hours, minutes, seconds, day, month, year and weekday in complete autonomy.

This module can be backed up through the back up circuitery to warrant data validity in any working condition and is completely managed by software.

RTC section can also generate periodic interrupts at software programmable time intervals, to switch the CPU out of normal operations or to awaken it from low consumption modes.

For software management of serial SRAM + RTC backed module, please refer to specific manufacturer documentation. This manual reports no software information because management of this component is complex and requires a deep knowledge, anyway the user can use the demo programs supplied with the card. The board control logic allows to realize a serial communication with I 2 C bus standard protocol, through two I/O microprocessor pins. The only necessary information is the electric connection:

PD1 , INT1 , SDA (input/output) -> DATA line (SDA)

PD0 , INT0 , SCL (input/output) -> CLOCK line (SCL)

Please remark that A0 of this component's slave address is bound to logic 0.

This means that RTC takes permanently the slave address A0, which is not available for user application.

The above mentioned module is capable to generate a programmable periodic signal, which is connected on-board to a 4.7 k Ω pull-up, and is available on pin 11 of Mini Module connector CN1, and is connected to signal PD4 of microcontroller.

CPU INTERNAL PERIPHERALS

Registers description and purpose for all internal peripherals (Analog COMPARATORS, A/D

CONVERTER, Timer Counters, USART0 and 1, I 2 C BUS, SPI, OCM, etc.) is availabe in the proper data sheet and user manual of the manufacturer.

APPENDIX B: ISP PROGRAMMING WITH GMM TST 2

In this appendix the user can find specific instructions to program Mini Module GMM AM128 installed on a GMM TST 2 using an external ISP programmer.

This method to program Mini Module on board Flash and EEPROM can be considered and alternative to the one explained in section "B" of chapater "How to start" of manual.

Content of other sections in above mentioned chapter are still valid anyway.

ISP programming allows also to change the value of configuration bits and security fuses, in addition to the programming of whole Flash and EEPROM content.

The Boot Loader does not allow to program the whole content of Flash, because the Boot Loader itself resides in a Flash area which becomes protected.

Also, configuration bits, that enable the Boot Loader itself, and security fuses are out of the range programmable by the Boot Loader and must be programmed in ISP mode.

If you think it is more convenient to use a Boot Loader on RS 232 serial line, refer to above mentioned chapter.

For more information on how to connect a PC serial port to GMM TST 2 (or even to Mini Module as stand-alone) to test the program, refer to section "A" of chapter "How to start" of manual.

For further information on how to develop and debug the firmware, refer to section "C" of chapter

"How to start" of manual.

Programmers that can be used with GMM TST 2 are:

- grifo ® MP-AVR 51+ ; grifo ® UEP 49

- Equinox EPSILON5

- ATMEL AVR ISP

A ) COMMON OPERATIONS FOR ALL PROGRAMMERS

A1) Programming of Mini Module on a GMM TST 2 board is performed through a specific connector of the card and, if required, an interface adapter between the programmer and the connector itself.

The two grifo ® programmers that can be interfaced with GMM TST 2, that is UEP 49 and MP-AVR 51+, use a specific interface for each one of them, whose diagram is shown in figures B-1 and B-2. On the left side of the figures there is the list of GMM TST 2 CN7 connector's ways that must be connected to corresponding pins on programmer's connector indicated by the arrow.
