Why not run the same code on two PICS
PostPosted: Thu Oct 15, 2015 4:19 am     Reply with quote

Hi!
I have this code and want to experiment with the pic 16f887 and pic 18F4550!
With pic 16f887 it works well, but the pic 18F4550 does not work, where the error is?!

I appreciate all the help

works well.

Code:

#include <16F887.h>
#fuses XT,NOPROTECT,NOWDT,NOBROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=4000000)
#byte portb=6
#byte portc=7
#define SW portc,0

int cont;
byte const ario[4]={0b1100,0b0110,0b0011,0b1001};
byte const antiario[4]={0b1001,0b0011,0b0110,0b1100};

void main()
{
set_tris_c(0b11111111);
set_tris_b(0b00000000);

while(true)
{
   if(bit_test(SW))
     {
      cont=0;
      while((cont<4)&&(bit_test(SW)))
        {
        portb=(ario[cont]);
        delay_ms(100);
        cont++;
        }
      }
else
 {
  cont=0;
  while((cont<4)&&(!bit_test(SW)))
   {
   portb =(antiario[cont]);
   delay_ms(100);
   cont++;
   }
  }
 }
}


does not work

Code:

#include <18F4550.h>
#use delay( clock=20000000)
#fuses HS,NOPROTECT,NOWDT,NOBROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP

#byte portb=6
#byte portc=7
#define SW portc,0

int cont;
byte const ario[4]={0b1100,0b0110,0b0011,0b1001};
byte const antiario[4]={0b1001,0b0011,0b0110,0b1100};

void main()
{
set_tris_c(0b11111111);
set_tris_b(0b00000000);

while(true)
{
   if(bit_test(SW))
     {
      cont=0;
      while((cont<4)&&(bit_test(SW)))
        {
        portb=(ario[cont]);
        delay_ms(100);
        cont++;
        }
      }
else
 {
  cont=0;
  while((cont<4)&&(!bit_test(SW)))
   {
   portb =(antiario[cont]);
   delay_ms(100);
   cont++;
   }
  }
 }
}

Simply put the PICs are NOT the same ! Why do you think the code will run?
Chevy rims do not fit on Ford cars.
It's down to basic hardware. Download the datasheets and look at the 'memory map','register map','fuses', etc. and you'll soon see why the code doesn't run.

Also you should (though not necessary) set both 'clocks' at the same speed when doing comparison testing. As shown the 4550 is running 5X faster than the 887, so at the very least you'd need to change scope settings to see what's happening.

Hi!! thanks for help
I do not yet have much experience with pics 18F,
almost I worked with 16F.
so my question to ask for help! I've seen the datasheet of the pic and still did not get that pic 18f comp if it works.
Thank you anyway

re:
#byte portb=6

This tells the PIC that I/O port B is located at memory address #6 for the PIC16F887

If you look at the 4550 datasheet, in the 'memory organization' chapter, table 5-1 shows that I/O port B is not at address 6, rather F8Ax.

So your program isn't accessing the I/O port instead it's using a RAM location.

This is why it's important to look at the 'memory maps' of any micro.

This is also why the compiler now supports using names for such registers. So:
Code:

#byte portb=getenv("SFR:PORTB")
#byte portc=getenv("SFR:PORTC")


Will automatically 'look up' the special function registers 'PORTB', and 'PORTC' in the environment data held for the chips, and fill the values in.

Hi!! Thank you for your help!
I really had not noticed this detail, I have a doubt you said that the address I / O PORTB was F8a of 4550, but from what I saw in datasheet is F81h! or am I doing confusion!,plus any help is welcome
I did the tests with the code below and now works well!
Code:

#include <18F4550.h>
#use delay( clock=20000000)
#fuses HS,NOPROTECT,NOWDT,NOBROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP

#byte portb=3969
#byte portc=3970

#define SW portc,0

int cont;
byte const ario[4]={0b1100,0b0110,0b0011,0b1001};
byte const antiario[4]={0b1001,0b0011,0b0110,0b1100};

void main()
{
set_tris_c(0b11111111);
set_tris_b(0b00000000);

while(true)
{
   if(bit_test(SW))
     {
      cont=0;
      while((cont<4)&&(bit_test(SW)))
        {
        portb=(ario[cont]);
        delay_ms(100);
        cont++;
        }
      }
else
 {
  cont=0;
  while((cont<4)&&(!bit_test(SW)))
   {
   portb =(antiario[cont]);
   delay_ms(100);
   cont++;
   }
  }
 }
}

Hi!
I also tested the code you posted and also works
Unknown to me until now.
thanks for helping.

Code:

#include <18F4550.h>
#use delay( clock=20000000)
#fuses HS,NOPROTECT,NOWDT,NOBROWNOUT,PUT,NOLVP

#byte portb=getenv("SFR:PORTB")
#byte portc=getenv("SFR:PORTC")

#define SW portc,0

int cont;
byte const ario[4]={0b1100,0b0110,0b0011,0b1001};
byte const antiario[4]={0b1001,0b0011,0b0110,0b1100};

void main()
{
set_tris_c(0b11111111);
set_tris_b(0b00000000);

while(true)
{
   if(bit_test(SW))
     {
      cont=0;
      while((cont<4)&&(bit_test(SW)))
        {
        portb=(ario[cont]);
        delay_ms(100);
        cont++;
        }
      }
else
 {
  cont=0;
  while((cont<4)&&(!bit_test(SW)))
   {
   portb =(antiario[cont]);
   delay_ms(100);
   cont++;
   }
  }
 }
}

just a comment...

What Mr. T says....
#byte portb=getenv("SFR:PORTB")

is the 'best' way to handle SFRs as he says the compiler will generate the correct addresses.

your way...
#byte portb=3969

is awkward since the datasheet refers to address in HEX not DECIMAL, so it would be better to use F81 the same as the datasheet.

Also it's better to use descriptive names when possible, especially when asking for help.
I think 'SW' means a SWitch on port c but...SW also means SoftWare, SouthWest, etc. While you know NOW what it means, 3 days, 3 months from now you'll ask yourself ,'hmmmm... what does SW mean'?

Ok, I will pay attention to these his notes!
Yes, PORTC is placed a button called SW, was by chance that I chose this setting.
It really is more elegant writing the code in HEX than in decimal, my mistake.
Thanks for the help
