Serial communication in ATmega16


Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) The receiver and transmitter share a common clock line. Supports higher data rates The transmitter is designed as the master, the receiver as the slave. Examples of devices using SPI : LCD LCD, high speed analogue analogueto-digital converter. Connect several devices such as microcontrollers and display boards, using a two-wire bus. Up to 128 devices are supported. Each device has a unique address and can exchange data with other devices in a small network

Two-wire serial interface(TWI):

Serial USART An overview


USART S of f the ATmega16 supports Baud rates from 960 bps p to 57.6kpbs Character size : 5 to 9 bits 1 start bit, bit 1 or 2 stop bits, Parity bit (optional: ( ti l even or odd dd parity) Common baud rates are 19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, and 1200 bps

Serial USART: Block Diagram

Serial USART Hardware elements


USART Clock Generator: To provide clock source. To set baud rate using UBRR register. register To send a character through TxD pin. To handle strat/stop bit framing, parity bit, shift register. To receive a character through RxD pin. To perform the reverse operation of the transmitter. To configure, control, and monitor the serial USART.

USART Baud Rate Registers

Example:FindUBRRregistersforbaudrateof1200bps,assumingsystem clockis1MHz.
UBRR=1000000/(16 1200) 1=51d=0033H. Therefore,UBRRH=00HandUBRRL=33H. Ccode UBRRH=0x00;UBRRL=0x33;

USART Control and Status Register A (UCSRA)

1 to enable multi-processor com mode 1 to double the transmission speed

1 when there is parity error 1 when there is data overrun 1 when there is frame error

1 when USART data register is empty 1 when no new data in transmit buffer (tx complete) 1 when receive buffer has unread data (rx complete)

USART Control and Status Register B (UCSRB)

Tx extra data bit for 9-bit character size Rx extra data bit for 9-bit character size bit UCSZ2 to decide character size

1 to enable USART transmitter: Pin D.1 = TXD pin 1 to enable USART receiver: Pin D.0 = RXD pin

1 to enable USART Data Register Empty Interrupt


1 to enable TX Complete Interrupt, valid only if Global Interrupt Flag = 1 and TXC = 1 1 to enable e ab e RX Complete Co p ete Interrupt, te upt, valid a d only o y if Global G oba Interrupt te upt Flag ag = 1 a and d RXC C=1

USART Control and Status Register C (UCSRC)

Clock polarity, used with synchronous Used with UCSZ2 to select character size

To select stop bit modes: 0 ->1 stop bit, 1 -> 2 stop bits To select parity mode: 00 no parity, 10 even party, 11 odd parity To select USART modes: 0 asynchronous, 1 synchronous Must be set to 1 to write to UCSRC. Note: UCSRC and UBRRH share same location.
