Test Your Comprehension

Write code to make all pins of PORTD to be
outputs (Arduino and alternate)

DDRD = 0xFF;
 DDRD = 0b11111111;
 DDRD = 255;

Arduino style
pinMode(0, OUTPUT);
pinMode(7, OUTPUT);
Write code to make pins 5, 3, and 1 of
PORTD to be outputs, and the rest inputs


DDRD = 0b00101010;
DDRD = 0x2A;

DDRD | = (1<<5) | (1<<3) | (1<<1);
Arduino style
pinMode(1, OUTPUT);
pinMode(3, OUTPUT);
pinMode(5, OUTPUT);
Structure of an Arduino Program

An arduino program == ‘sketch’
 Must have:



setup()


setup()
loop()
configures pin modes and
registers
loop()

runs the main body of the
program forever


like while(1) {…}
Where is main() ?


Arduino simplifies things
Does things for you
/* Blink - turns on an LED for DELAY_ON msec,
then off for DELAY_OFF msec, and repeats
BJ Furman rev. 1.1 Last rev: 22JAN2011
*/
#define LED_PIN= 13; // LED on digital pin 13
#define DELAY_ON = 1000;
#define DELAY_OFF = 1000;
void setup()
{
// initialize the digital pin as an output:
pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);
}
// loop() method runs forever,
// as long as the Arduino has power
void loop()
{
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, HIGH); // set the LED on
delay(DELAY_ON); // wait for DELAY_ON msec
digitalWrite(LED_PIN, LOW); // set the LED off
delay(DELAY_OFF); // wait for DELAY_OFF msec
}
Best Practices and Patterns -1

Programmer’s block

At a minimum:






Program name
Description of what
the program does
Author
Revision number
Revision date/time
Even better:




Creation date
Inputs
Outputs
Method/algorithm
/* Blink - turns on an LED for DELAY_ON msec, then
off for DELAY_OFF msec, and repeats
BJ Furman rev. 1.1 Last rev: 22JAN2011
*/
Best Practices and Patterns -2

Avoid ‘hard coding’
constants

Use #define and
symbolic names
instead



Why?
Symbolic names are
usually put in all
caps to differentiate
from variables
See me106.h
#define LED_PIN = 13; // LED on digital pin 13
#define DELAY_ON = 1000;
#define DELAY_OFF = 1000;
How to Twiddle Bits

Recall the example of the seat belt
indicator system


#define LATCHED 0

pinMode(0, INPUT); // key switch
pinMode(1, INPUT); // belt latch switch
pinMode(2, OUTPUT); // lamp
pinMode(3, OUTPUT); // buzzer
key_state=digitalRead(0);
belt_state=digitalRead1);
if(key_state==ENGAGED)
if(belt_state==LATCHED)
digitalWrite(3, LOW);
digitalWrite(2, LOW);

Bit Manipulation Practice

See the handout on Bit Manipulation

Setting bits
 Clearing bits
 Toggling bits
Challenge:
Make bits 5 and 3 of PORTB high and the rest low
Summary of Bit Manipulation

Setting a bit (making it a ‘1’)

Bitwise OR the PORTx register with the
corresponding bit mask


Clearing a bit (making it a ‘0’)

Bitwise AND the PORTx register with the
corresponding complemented bit mask


Ex. PORTB | = _BV(3);
Ex. PORTB & = ~( _BV(3) );
Toggling a bit (making it flip)

Bitwise XOR the PORTx register with the
corresponding bit mask

Ex. PORTB ^ = _BV(3);
Bit Twiddling Practice

Make Arduino pins 11 – 13 to be outputs
and pins 8 – 10 to be inputs
Use the Arduino method
2. Use the ‘all-at-once’ (general) method
1.

Check if pin 9 is high

If pin 9 is high, make pin 13 high and pin 11
low

Else both pins 13 should be low
Use the Arduino method
2. Use the general port-style method
1.
Pull-up Resistors

Pins configured as INPUTS can be ‘pulled
up’ to VTG

Why is this useful?
Puts an input pin in a known state (logic high) if no
external influence has pulled it down (to logic low)
 Example of a switch connected between a pin and
ground


How is it done?
When the pin is configured as an input, SET the
corresponding bit in PORTxn
 Undone by clearing the bit

Redo Seat Belt Sensor System

Use port-style programming
#define LATCHED 0
#define ENGAGED 0
DDRD | = _BV(2) | _BV(3); // D2 and D3 are OUTPUTs
PORTD | = _BV(0) | _BV(1); // turn on pull-ups for D0 and D1
current_state = ~PIND; // invert for active-low switches
key_state=current_state & ( _BV(0) )
belt_state=current_state & ( _BV(1) )
if(key_state==ENGAGED)
if(belt_state==LATCHED)
PORTD & = ~( _BV(2) | _BV(3) ); // buzzer and lamp off
else
PORTD | = ( _BV(2) | _BV(3) ); // buzzer and lamp on
else
PORTD & = ~( _BV(2) | _BV(3) ); // buzzer and lamp off

Recap ATmega Digital I/O

Pins are bi-directional. Can configure as:



Inputs – _______ determines the pin voltage
Outputs – ______ determines the pin voltage
Direction determined by bits in DDRx register


Where x is B, C, D for the ATmega328 (and DDRx
corresponds to all 8 pins associated with the port)
If configured as output:

Program can specify a pin to be high (VTG) or low (GND) by
writing a corresponding 1 or 0 (respectively) to PORTx
register


Ex. To make Port D pins 7, 3, and 4 low, and the rest high
PORTD=___________; (write in binary, then in hex)
Recap ATmega Digital I/O, cont.

If pins configured as input, this means:

External device can pull pin voltage high or low


i.e. take up to VTG or take down to GND
You can determine the state of the port
pins by reading the PINx register

Recap ATmega Digital I/O, cont.

If pins configured as input, cont.:

Can turn pull-up resistors on or off by
writing a 1 or 0 to corresponding pins
in PORTx


A pull-up resistor internally connects a
pin to VTG to give it a defined state
(logic high, i.e., 1)
Ex. Write the code that will:
Make Port D pins inputs
 Turn on pull-up resistors
 Read the voltages on the pins and store
them in a variable, testD
 What is the value of testD in binary
and hex?
