The ATmega328p datasheet has a section on commonly used Baud rates,Error rates,Crystal Frequencies and their corresponding UBBRn values.You can look up that table on the datasheet and select your desired UBBRn values. The required baudrate can be selected by writing the corresponding value to the UBBRn register. USART supports all commonly used baud rates from 2400 bps to 230.4kps without any issues.You can go up to 2.5Mbps for a crystal frequency of 20MHz.The maximum we are able to achieve on a Windows7 machine is 230.4k bps.

Enabling the Transmitter or Receiver depending upon the usage.

The USART has to be initialized before any communication can take place.The initialization process consists of the following steps. In our case we will be dealing only with asynchronous communication.

#Atmega328p serial

Universal Synchronous and Asynchronous serial Receiver and Transmitter (USART) is a configurable peripheral of ATmega328p which supports both Synchronous (SPI) and asynchronous(Serial) communication protocols.

#Atmega328p Pc

Since the PC cannot receive the UART signals directly from the ATmega328P microcontroller,a USB to Serial Converter based on FT232RL is used to convert the serial TTL signals to USB Protocol. The following block diagram shows the hardware connections of the setup.

RXD of ATmega328 is connected to TXD of USB to Serial Converter.

You can check this tutorial to learn how to configure ATmega328 to use an external crystal as clock source. If you are using the 28 pin DIP version,please make sure that the pin numbers match by referring to the data sheet of ATmega328p.ĪTmega328p is clocked with an external Quartz crystal running at 11.0592MHz. We are using a 32 pin TQFP version of the ATmega328p microcontroller.

All Source codes including 'Make' files are available on our Github Repo.

#Atmega328p code

Hex code is uploaded into Atmega328p with AVRDUDE using USBasp Programmer.

The code for the microcontroller section is written in embedded C and compiled using AVR-GCC (WinAVR).

If you are looking for ATmega RS485 Communication check this tutorial. The data will be received/transmitted by a terminal emulation program like PuTTY or Tera Term.

The ATmega328p microcontroller will send and receive data (ASCII Strings) to a PC running either a Linux or Windows operating system using it's (ATmega328p) UART pins. Please use this tool at your own risk.In this tutorial we will learn how to program the USART(uart) of ATmega328P microcontroller to communicate with a Linux/ Windows PC using asynchronous serial communication protocol. The information represented by the calculator is not guarenteed to be correct and no responsibility is taken for the correctness of any information represented. Make sure you don't mess up your chip by disabling the programming features or locking the chip completely. Some bits that are undefined may not be verified as correct, but as they are undefined, that's usually not a problem. The AVRDUDE commands may be used as arguments with AVRDUDE to program the fuses.

If ISP programming becomes disabled (by disabling SPI programming, disabling the reset pin, or enabling debugWIRE), you will require special equipment (HV programmer, parallel programmer, or something with debugWIRE) to change them back.

Manually manipulating the fuse bits will also cause the calculator to find the preset that matches the fuse bit setting.īe extra careful about anything with a star *, the star * means the setting is related to ISP programming. Changing a preset setting will automatically apply the changes to the fuse bits. Presets are known defined settings available for the AVR chip you've selected. When you select another chip, the fuse settings from the current chip will be applied to the new chip (even if the chips are not similar). If a chip is marked as 'similar', it means that chip has identical fuses and preset collections as the currently selected chip You can select a AVR chip from the dropdown menu at the top of the page.
