This is specific for the Beaglebone Black model C sold through Element 14 which includes retailers like Adafruit. There is quite a bit of info out on the net on how to enable the UART’s but for some reason, locations of things have changed. To check if this instruction is going to be valid for […]
Been playing with the chipKIT Max32 a bit lately and using the native Microchip C32 compiler with MPLab X. Anyway, something not to well documented is the mapping between the different UARTs. This is what I’ve found: UART1 = UART1A = (RX0 pin A0 / TX0 pin A1) UART2 = UART3A = (RX2 pin 17 […]
I’ve modified the original UART example that comes with the Microchip C32 compiler to easily handle different UART’s along with adding a compare function that compares what is recieved over the UART to a pre-defined set of characters. See the description in the source below for more. Download the source as a text file here: […]
This fix refers to the library version release 12 April 2011. When using an Explorer 16 board and setting the Macro definition of EXPLORER16_100P in MPLab, parts of the library do not pick it up correctly rendering the heartbeat LED and the UART to not work. No compilor error is noticed. In the file lib\include\pic24_libconfig.h […]
The UART example on page 262 just needs the Explorer16 check list from the last article to make it work and the ASM example I skipped as it’s not needed at this stage of my journey. The file name for the Figure 8.6 example is documented in the book. Well done to the author and […]
