External clock on 16f819 problem.
OK, I've read the datasheet but I'm still confused.
I have someone elses pre-made project that I'm altering. It already runs from asm with a 16F818 but I wanted to add big characters for the LCD.
The project uses non standard pins for the LCD so I'm using LCD_AnyPin.pbp and it uses an external 10Mhz oscillator as clock in.
I have a small test board running the code I want successfully using the odd pins, but a standard crystal 10Mhz oscillator as DEFINE OSC 10.
I read the datasheet as EICON for the external oscillator option but I have no idea how to set it ?
I tried DEFINE EXT_OSC 10 and selecting EXTCLOCK on the programmer but although I get two lines showing (Contrast up) there is no data.
I also tried 'clkin VAR portA.7' with no success.
Anyone point me in the right direction?
As I say the code works with Xtal osc but not external clock so seems no point posting the code.
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
If it already runs in assembler, why assume posting your new basic code is pointless?
Port A is analog in many (if not all) PICs, you have to set it to digital to use it with the LCD.
It's difficult to make suggestions if we can't see your code, a schematic of your project wouldn't hurt either.

Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
Hmm, my post isn't very clear.
I have the software working on a development board. This board uses a 10Mhz Xtal osc as standard.
The board I want to use it on uses an external 10Mhz oscillator source on one pin only OSC1.
I believe I need to set OSCCON=8 to select mode 8 in the oscillator settings. It appears my programmer is defaulting to the 'inc' values.

Can you give more information about that board?
I've never seen a circuit using only one pin for the oscillator (it doesn't mean it doesn't exist).
Robert
EDIT: Interesting, Pierce and Colpitts oscillators have only one output:

After glancing through that application note, I'd start by checking just how accurate the oscillator is working.
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
Robert, Havent you ever ran a PIC from an external oscillator before? You only need 1 pin for the input. That frees up another pin for some external use by the designer.

What you posted is an external clock input, like the title says. That's not really an external oscillator.
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
Wouldn't that need a CONFIG fuse?
Dave, do you have an example from one of your programs?
Robert
EDIT: These are the available fuses for a 16F819:
Code:
_CP_ALL EQU H'1FFF'
_CP_OFF EQU H'3FFF'
_CCP1_RB2 EQU H'3FFF'
_CCP1_RB3 EQU H'2FFF'
_DEBUG_OFF EQU H'3FFF'
_DEBUG_ON EQU H'37FF'
_WRT_ENABLE_OFF EQU H'3FFF'
_WRT_ENABLE_512 EQU H'3DFF'
_WRT_ENABLE_1024 EQU H'3BFF'
_WRT_ENABLE_1536 EQU H'39FF'
_CPD_ON EQU H'3EFF'
_CPD_OFF EQU H'3FFF'
_LVP_ON EQU H'3FFF'
_LVP_OFF EQU H'3F7F'
_BODEN_ON EQU H'3FFF'
_BODEN_OFF EQU H'3FBF'
_MCLR_ON EQU H'3FFF'
_MCLR_OFF EQU H'3FDF'
_PWRTE_OFF EQU H'3FFF'
_PWRTE_ON EQU H'3FF7'
_WDT_ON EQU H'3FFF'
_WDT_OFF EQU H'3FFB'
_EXTRC_CLKOUT EQU H'3FFF'
_EXTRC_IO EQU H'3FFE'
_INTRC_CLKOUT EQU H'3FFD'
_INTRC_IO EQU H'3FFC'
_EXTCLK EQU H'3FEF'
_HS_OSC EQU H'3FEE'
_XT_OSC EQU H'3FED'
_LP_OSC EQU H'3FEC'
And these are the default settings (PM and MPASM):
Code:
device pic16F819, hs_osc, wdt_on, pwrt_on, lvp_off, protect_off
... else
... __config _HS_OSC & _WDT_ON & _PWRTE_ON & _LVP_OFF & _CP_OFF
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
To all intents and purposes a clock and oscillator are one and the same.
The answer lies at the end of the fuses list 4th from bottom _EXTCLK needs setting as my programmer defaults to standard inc setting.
This is what I need :
_LVP_OFF & _CP_OFF & _BODEN_ON & _MCLR_OFF & _PWRTE_ON & _WDT_OFF & _EXTCLK & _DEBUG_OFF & _WRT_ENABLE_OFF & _CPD_OFF & _CCP1_RB3
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
Hmm, I posted another reply but it vanished into the ether !
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
OK, changing the INC file and putting that line in did the trick. Seems my programmer options don't work it always goes back to the standard INC, modifying that worked.
The LCD now responds in a single line format but I seem to be screwed up with the ADCON TRIS etc. No surprise there then.
I'll post the code once I have it from the other computer.
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
OK, this is the test code. Just trying to reproduce characters.
The IN/OUTS ADC etc are there but there's no code to run them in this version.
The ADCON1 register is setup and the LCD displays one line but I need to study up the rest TRIS etc.

Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
I've studied the datasheet time and time again, I just don't get it. I need some help to understand what I'm missing here.
The LCD still gives one line with the code and fuses as mentioned in posts above.
BUT I can't see what's wrong.
I need the settings as follows:-
PortA.0 <----- ADC in
PortA.1 NC
PortA.2 -------> LCD RS
PortA.3 -------> LCD Enable
PortA.4 NC
PortA.5 NC
PortA.6 NC
PortA.7 <------ EXT Osc in (Working)
PortB.0 RW (Low, working)
PortB.1 NC
PortB.2 -----> LCD D6
PortB.3 -----> PWM Out
PortB.4 -----> LCD D4
PortB.5 ------> LCD D5
PortB.6 <---- clk count in for a ref frequency to compare against external clock using tmr
PortB.7 ------> LCD D7
I have set ADCON1=%10001110 without this the LCD is blank.
I've tried other settings but I'm now completely confused.
Can someone please help.
Re: External clock on 16f819 problem.
I posted in the LCD_Anypin thread.
My code with LCD_Anypin works with a 10mhz crystal oscillator but produces strange results on the LCD with EXTCLK.

Datasheet page 83, section 11-0.
Read settings for ADCON0 and ADCON1.
At a glance, ADCON1 looks good, I think you need to set ADCON0 as well.
