Active Low LED:

LEDs are connected in Active LOW configuration so to turn ON the LED user
has to apply logic low (0) signal at the LED PIN and to turn OFF the LED apply
logic high (1) signal at the LED pin.
Active Low Switches:
Switches are connected in Active LOW configuration when switch is pressed it
will read logic low (0) at the switch PIN and when not pressed will read logic
high (1).

Programming AVRoN16 development board:

To start programming the AVRoN16 Board first we will need the compiler
which will translate the higher level c code to the hex code which can be
recognize by the microcontroller (microcontroller only understands hex code)
and a burner which will transfer the hex code generated from the computer to
the microcontroller program memory.
There are ample of free softwares available for AVR microcontroller
programming like AVRStudio (compiler), PonyProg (burner) ,Win-Avr (compiler
+ burner) etc.
For programming the AVRoN16 board we are going to use WinAvr software
Software installers:
Free version of the software package is provided in the CD.
Install the software before proceeding.
To start writing a c code, first launch programmers notepad application of
WinAvr from computers start menu.
StartAll ProgramsWinAvrProgrammer Notepad [WinAvr]
Create new file by selecting
FileNewDefault or by simply using the keyboard shortcut keys Ctrl+N

Now write the program in the file and save the file with .c (filename.c)
extension in the folder. (For different programs use different folders)

Now to compile the code we will be need the Makefile, you can
find the Makefile in the sample code folder from the CD provided.

Copy the Makefile to the Project folder where we saved the .c file. (User has
to keep both the .c file and Makefile in same folder)
NOTE: Do not rename the Makefile and dont give any extension to file.
Now open the Makefile in programmers notepad.

User has
to

configure the Makefile for the target microcontroller. Following are the
configuration settings:
1. #MCU name : Here write the name of target microcontroller , in AVRoN16
we are using ATMEGA16 so the name will be MCU=atmega16

For further enquiry please email us at info@allsensor.in

2. Select the clock frequency F_CPU, select the clock frequency applied to the

microcontroller, in our case the microcontroller is supplied with onboard

16MHz crystal so the F_CPU will be
F_CPU=16000000

3. FORMAT: Select the output format as ihex (intel hex)

FORMAT = ihex

4. TARGET: Here write the filename without any .c extension.

5. Fuse Setting: user can perform different settings, fuse bit determines the

behavior of the chip, whether it has a boot loader, watchdog timer

conditions, clock speed definitions etc. so that user can configure the chip
in accordance with their requirement.
NOTE: Read the microcontroller datasheet before changing the fuse bits as
playing with fuse bits may damage the microcontroller permanently.

Following is the recommended fuse setting for atmega16.

6. Programming options: This section defines the programming interface for

the microcontroller.
AVRDUDE_PROGRAMMER = ponyser (when using serial ISP programmer
for
programming)
= usbasp (when using USBASP programmer for
programming)

AVRDUDE_PORT = com1 (when using serial ISP programmer for

programming)
= usb (when using USBASP programmer for
programming)

Once the Makefile is configured with above setting, user

can now compile the c code and load the hex file on
microcontroller. Follow the steps below to compile and
load the code on microcontroller.
Step 1 : Select Tools tab from the winAVR window, in
Tools click on [winAVR] Make Clean and check out
the output window for any issues. If output window is
displaying
>process Exit Code: 0 then make clean is successful.
Step 2: Now we will compile the C-code to generate the
hex file.

For further enquiry please email us at info@allsensor.in

Select Tools tab from the winAVR window, in Tools click on [winAVR]
Make All and check out the output window for any errors in code. If output
window is displaying
>process Exit Code: 0 then make All is successful.

After successful compilation we are ready to load the hex code from computer
to the microcontroller program memory.
Follow following steps to load the code on microcontroller.
1. Power On the board.
2. Connect the programmer interface to the board (Serial ISP programmer or
USBASP programmer. Etc) in case of ISP serial programmers make sure that the
switch is not pressed on the programmer board.)
3. Make sure that hyper terminal program is closed. (In case of serial ISP
programmer if hyper terminal is open while programming you will get error as:
avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device "com1": Access is denied.)
4. Now click on Tools and select [winAVR] Program to transfer the code
from computer to microcontroller, after successful loading of the code on
microcontroller the output window will display the following message.
> process Exit Code: 0
