CodeVisionAVR
CodeVisionAVR is a C cross-compiler, Integrated Development Environment and Automatic Program Generator designed for the Atmel AVR family of microcontrollers.
The program is designed to run under the Windows 95, 98, Me, NT 4, 2000 and XP operating systems.
The C cross-compiler implements nearly all the elements of the ANSI C language, as allowed by the AVR architecture, with some features added to take advantage of specificity of the AVR architecture and the embedded system needs.
The compiled COFF object files can be C source level debugged, with variable watching, using the Atmel AVR Studio debugger.
The Integrated Development Environment (IDE) has built-in AVR Chip In-System Programmer software that enables the automatical transfer of the program to the microcontroller chip after successful compilation/assembly. The In-System Programmer software is designed to work in conjunction with the Atmel STK500/AVRISP/AVRProg (AVR910 application note), Kanda Systems STK200+/300, Dontronics DT006, Vogel Elektronik VTEC-ISP, Futurlec JRAVR and MicroTronics ATCPU/Mega2000 programmers/development boards.
For debugging embedded systems, which employ serial communication, the IDE has a built-in Terminal.
Besides the standard C libraries, the CodeVisionAVR C compiler has dedicated libraries for:
· Alphanumeric LCD modules
· Philips I2C bus
· National Semiconductor LM75 Temperature Sensor
· Philips PCF8563, PCF8583, Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor DS1302 and DS1307 Real Time Clocks
· Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor 1 Wire protocol
· Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor DS1820, DS18S20, DS18B20 Temperature Sensors
· Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor DS1621 Thermometer/Thermostat
· Maxim/Dallas Semiconductor DS2430 and DS2433 EEPROMs
· SPI
· Power management
· Delays
· Gray code conversion
CodeVisionAVR also contains the CodeWizardAVR Automatic Program Generator, that allows you to write, in a matter of minutes, all the code needed for implementing the following functions:
· External memory access setup
· Chip reset source identification
· Input/Output Port initialization
· External Interrupts initialization
· Timers/Counters initialization
· Watchdog Timer initialization
· UART (USART) initialization and interrupt driven buffered serial communication
· Analog Comparator initialization
· ADC initialization
· SPI Interface initialization
· Two Wire Interface initialization
· CAN Interface initialization
· I2C Bus, LM75 Temperature Sensor, DS1621 Thermometer/Thermostat and PCF8563, PCF8583, DS1302, DS1307 Real Time Clocks initialization
· 1 Wire Bus and DS1820, DS18S20 Temperature Sensors initialization
· LCD module initialization.
