16F18446 - setting baudrate for HW EUSART

[flotulopex]

Hi All,

I had an example from Richard lately where he configured my 16F18446 HW serial's port.

I didn't pay that much attention to it...

Now that I'm looking closer on "how he did it", I can't figure it out.

So I went to "visit" the DS and after lots of calculations and trials, I'm still stuck.

This is an extract from Richard's code (as said from another thread/project), the piece of code I'm working on.

While the settings for baudrates 57600 and 115200 work perfectly, I can't make it work for slower baudrates like 19200 or even 9600.


I tried to follow the DS and, even if in Richard's example some values don't chage like for instance the SP1BRGH on, I thought I should use the following formula.

10031


It doesn't work.


But looking at the baudrate examples table, I can't find the difference for all proposed baudrates.

10032


Can anyone please explain whre I'm missing the point (or points)?

when you get a result like
DEFINE HSER_SPBRG 832 you realize something is very wrong since an 8 bit register can not accept that value ever

you have enabled the 16 bit baud rate generator in every case


BAUDCON.3 = 1 'Enable 16 bit baudrate generator

for 19200
SP1BRGL = 160:SP1BRGH = 1

for 9600
SP1BRGL = 64:SP1BRGH = 3


BAUDCON.3 = 0 '8 bit baudrate generator
for 9600
SP1BRGH = 51

for 19200
SP1BRGH = 25

its probably better to say

there are two baudrate clock source dividers brgh=0 ; fosc/64 and brgh=1 ; fosc/16 and
and you have the choice of 8 or 16 bit baud rate generators, so 4 options for every baud rate


BAUDCON.3 = 1 'Enable 16 bit baudrate generator
brgh=1
for 19200
SP1BRGL = 160:SP1BRGH = 1

for 9600
SP1BRGL = 64:SP1BRGH = 3

brgh=0
for 19200
SP1BRGL = 103:SP1BRGH =0


for 9600
SP1BRGL = 207:SP1BRGH = 0





BAUDCON.3 = 0 '8 bit baudrate generator
brgh=1
for 9600
SP1BRG = 207


for 19200
SP1BRG = 103

brgh=0
for 9600
SP1BRG = 51

for 19200
SP1BRG = 25
