The following code example shows a simple USART receive function that handles both
9-bit characters and the status bits.
Assembly Code Example(1)
USART_Receive:
; Wait for data to be received
sbis UCSRA, RXC
rjmp USART_Receive
; Get status and ninth bit, then data from buffer
in
in
in
r18, UCSRA
r17, UCSRB
r16, UDR
; If error, return -1
andi r18,(1<<FE)|(1<<DOR)|(1<<PE)
breq USART_ReceiveNoError
ldi r17, HIGH(-1)
ldi r16, LOW(-1)
USART_ReceiveNoError:
; Filter the ninth bit, then return
lsr r17
andi r17, 0x01
ret
C Code Example(1)
unsigned int USART_Receive( void )
{
unsigned char status, resh, resl;
/* Wait for data to be received */
while ( !(UCSRA & (1<<RXC)) )
;
/* Get status and ninth bit, then data */
/* from buffer */
status = UCSRA;
resh = UCSRB;
resl = UDR;
/* If error, return -1 */
if ( status & (1<<FE)|(1<<DOR)|(1<<PE) )
return -1;
/* Filter the ninth bit, then return */
resh = (resh >> 1) & 0x01;
return ((resh << 8) | resl);
}
Note:
1. The example code assumes that the part specific header file is included.
The receive function example reads all the I/O Registers into the Register File before
any computation is done. This gives an optimal receive buffer utilization since the buffer
location read will be free to accept new data as early as possible.
