The goal of these threads is to teach students English and Microcontroller Programming by posting short tasks and solutions.
To run and compile programs you should use IDE.
You can download SimulIDE (to simulate circuits)
(Link1) https://launchpad.net/simulide
(Link2) https://www.simulide.com/p/downloads.html
Recommended version is SimulIDE_1.1.0-RC1_Win64 (or any other version >=1.1.0).

Atmel Studio (to use avrasm) (recommended version Atmel Studio 6.0)
(Link1) https://atmel-studio.software.informer.com/6.0
(Link2) https://www.google.com/search?q=Atmel+Studio+6.0

WinAVR (to use C)

Unzip and copy a downloaded SimulIDE to your working place ("Local Disk C" for example). Let's name it as "SimulIDE".
Install Atmel Studio 6.0 to your working place ("Local Disk C\Program Files" for example).
Install WinAVR to your working place ("Local Disk C" for example).
Install Arduino IDE to your working place ("Local Disk C" for example).

Find the folder "avrassembler" in "C:\Program Files\Atmel\Atmel Studio 6.0\extensions\Atmel\AVRAssembler\2.1.51.64" and copy this folder.
Create the new folder "my-avr" in "C:\SimulIDE\examples\Micro\" and paste the folder "avrassembler" to there.

Create the new folder "Arduino" in "C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents\" (YourUsername is your name) and copy all files from "C:\arduino-1.8.18\" to there.
======================================================
If you want to make AVR project with avrasm or C then you should go to the folder "C:\SimulIDE\examples\Micro\my-avr"
From now on whenever you want to make an own project with AVR microcontroller you should do the following:
A.Create a new project folder in the directory "my-avr".
B.Create the subfolder "gcb_code" in the project folder.
C.Make a circuit and save it to your project folder.
D.Add a simulation program to your project.
E.Set correct Compiler Settings.

We will make all our avr projects with ATmega168. ATmega168 is often used as a main chip in Arduino boards.
Let's make our first project.
Blinking LED in AVR Assembler.
Create the folder "blinking-led-avr-asm" in the directory "my-avr".
Create the subfolder "gcb_code" in the folder "blinking-led-avr-asm".
Find the file "m168def.inc" in "C:\SimulIDE\examples\Micro\Avr\my-avr\avrassembler\include\". Copy this file.
Paste "m168def.inc" to the folder "C:\blinking-led-avr-asm\gcb_code\".
Open the program SimulIDE and click "Save Circuit As", then save your project to the folder "blinking-led-avr-asm\gcb_code" with the file name "blinking-led-avr-asm".
Find (you can type a name of a component in the field "Search Components" or search a component by browsing Categories of Components in the left menu), drag and drop on Form the next components:
mega168 (Micro->AVR->atmega->mega168)
resistor 100 Ω (Passive->Resistors->Resistor)
Led (Outputs->Leds->Led)
Ground (0 V) (Sources->Ground (0 V)).
You can zoom in/zoom out your working area by using a scroll wheel.
Connect all components with wires in the same way, as in the picture. You can rotate a component by right-clicking a component and clicking "Rotate CW/Rotate CCW" a few times. The resistor must be connect to D0. Pay attention to LED, since it emits light only if it's connected correctly. The current must go from anode to cathode (LED will not emit light if you connect it in the opposite direction).
Click "Save Circuit".

You can copy-paste the Initialization block to every AVR assembler program without thinking, since it's the same for every program.
===============================================
SBI DDRD, 0 ;makes PD0 an output port
DDRD has 8 bits (bbbbbbbb).
We set bit 0 of DDRD to 1 (bbbbbbb1).
This setting makes PORTD0 an output (it can be input also).
===============================================

SBI PORTD,0 ;turns on PD0
RCALL DELAY ;time delay, calls the DELAY subroutine
CBI PORTD,0 ;turns off PD0
RCALL DELAY ;time delay, calls the DELAY subroutine

SBI (Set Bit in I/O register)
CBI (Clear Bit in I/O register)
It's the main part of our program. This block of the code turns on and turns off our LED with delay 2 seconds.
===============================================
DELAY subroutines makes 2 seconds delay. We make delays by looping 100*250*250 times (it takes time to run those loops for AVR and keeps the microcontroller busy for 2 seconds).

Create the subfolder "gcb_code" in the folder "blinking-led-avr-c".
Open the program SimulIDE and click "Save Circuit As", then save your project to the folder "blinking-led-avr-c\gcb_code" with the file name "blinking-led-avr-c".

  1. #include <avr/io.h> //includes library, standard AVR header
  2. #define LED 0 //defines the constant LED. Now LED:=0
  3. void delayms(volatile unsigned long j)
  4. {
  5. volatile unsigned long i;
  6. for(i=0; i < 157*j; i++); //loops i from 0 to 157*j
  7. }
  8. int main(void)
  9. {
  10. DDRD |= (1<<LED); //makes PORTD0 an output
  11. while(1)
  12. {
  13. PORTD=(1<<LED); //PD0:=1
  14. delayms(2000); //calls delayms
  15. PORTD=(0<<LED); //PD0:=0
  16. delayms(2000); //calls delayms
  17. }
  18. return 0;
  19. }
The program has the next flowchart
Initialization (1-2)
-----|----------
Make PORTD0 an output port (12)
-----|----------
loop:
Main program (15-18)
================================
1 << LED means 00000001 << 0. The result is 00000001.
DDRD |= (1<<LED) means (DDRD) OR (00000001), this command sets DDRD:=bbbbbbb1 (we just set bit 0 to 1, we don't care of other bits b).
2000 ms is 2 seconds
"volatile" prevents the compiler to optimize memory access. Without "volatile" delays wouldn't be 2 seconds all the time.
The microcontroller runs delayms(2000) as the loop for(i=0; i < 157*2000; i++);
The number 157 is different for different compilers.

Arduino has AVR microcontroller inside. It can be ATmega328, ATmega168 or ATmega8.
We will prove it by creating our first Arduino program in Avrasm.
Blinking LED in Arduino Avrasm.
Create the folder "blinking-led-arduino-asm" in the directory "my-avr".
Create the subfolder "blinking-led-arduino-asm_ino" in the folder "blinking-led-arduino-asm".
Open the program SimulIDE and click "Save Circuit As", then save your project to the folder "blinking-led-arduino-asm\blinking-led-arduino-asm_ino" with the file name "blinking-led-arduino-asm".
Find (you can type a name of a component in the field "Search Components" or search a component by browsing Categories of Components in the left menu), drag and drop on Form the next components:
Arduino Uno (Micro->Arduino->Uno)
resistor 100 Ω (Passive->Resistors->Resistor)
Led (Outputs->Leds->Led).
You can zoom in/zoom out your working area by using a scroll wheel.
Connect all components with wires in the same way, as in the picture. You can rotate a component by right-clicking a component and clicking "Rotate CW/Rotate CCW" a few times. The resistor must be connect to 13. Rotate LED and connect it to GND. Pay attention to LED, since it emits light only if it's connected correctly. The current must go from anode to cathode (LED will not emit light if you connect it in the opposite direction).

Create inside the subfolder "blinking-led-arduino-asm_ino" the next files blinking-led-arduino-asm.ino, blinking-led-arduino-asm.S using Notepad.
======================
1.Open Notepad
2.File->Save As... and browse to the subfolder "blinking-led-arduino-asm_ino"
3.File name: blinking-led-arduino-asm.ino (blinking-led-arduino-asm.S)
4.Save as Type: All Files
5.Click Save
======================
Copy-paste the next code to files
blinking-led-arduino-asm.ino

Code: Select all

/*

  Blink an LED on pin 13 every 250ms
   using assembly routines.

  │Take a look at blinking-led-arduino-asm.S │

*/
blinking-led-arduino-asm.S

Code: Select all

;blinking-led-arduino-asm.S
; Blink LED on PB5(Arduino Uno pin 13)
#define __SFR_OFFSET 0
#include "avr/io.h"

.global main

main:
  sbi   DDRB, 5     ; Set PB5 as output

blink:
  sbi   PINB, 5     ; Toggle PINB
  ldi   r25, hi8(1000)
  ldi   r24, lo8(1000)
  call  delay_ms
  jmp   blink

delay_ms:
  ; Delay about (r25:r24)*ms. Clobbers r30, and r31.
  ; One millisecond is about 16000 cycles at 16MHz.
  ; The inner loop takes 4 cycles, so we repeat it 3000 times
  ldi   r31, hi8(4000)
  ldi   r30, lo8(4000)
1:
  sbiw    r30, 1
  brne    1b
  sbiw    r24, 1
  brne    delay_ms
  ret
  
 
Open blinking-led-arduino-asm.ino in SimulIDE.
Click "Compile", then click "UpLoad".
Click the red button "Power Circuit".
You should see blinking LED.
The pin 13 in Arduino is the same as PB5 in AVR microcontrollers.
We will not comment much this project, since it was made only for a demonstration.

Blinking LED in Arduino.
Now we will create an Arduino project using a sketch. A sketch is the name that Arduino uses for a program. It's the unit of code that is uploaded to and run on an Arduino board.
Create the folder "blinking-led-arduino" in the directory "my-avr".
Create the subfolder "blinking-led-arduino_ino" in the folder "blinking-led-arduino".
Open the program SimulIDE and click "Save Circuit As", then save your project to the folder "blinking-led-arduino\blinking-led-arduino_ino" with the file name "blinking-led-arduino".
Find (you can type a name of a component in the field "Search Components" or search a component by browsing Categories of Components in the left menu), drag and drop on Form the next components:
Arduino Uno (Micro->Arduino->Uno)
resistor 100 Ω (Passive->Resistors->Resistor)

  1. int led=13; //creates variable led:=13
  2. void setup(){
  3. pinMode(led, OUTPUT); //makes the pin 13 an output
  4. }
  5. void loop(){
  6. digitalWrite(led, 1); //writes the HIGH value to the digital pin 13
  7. delay(2000); //delay 2 seconds
  8. digitalWrite(led, 0); //writes the LOW value to the digital pin 13
  9. delay(2000);
  10. }
The function setup() is run only once and used for the initial setup.
The function loop() is an endless loop.
The setup function is a great place to initialize input and output pins so they are ready to be used. Then the program moves to the loop function code.

Create a new code file in SimulIDE. Copy-paste the program to the code window of SimulIDE (you may click the button Select All (from the previous post) and press Ctrl+С (to copy the code from the forum) and Ctrl+V (to paste the code)).
Click "Save". Then enter "File name: blinking-led-arduino", select "Save as type: ino(*.ino)" and click "Save" in the pop up window "Save Document As".
Click "Compile", then click "UpLoad".
Click the red button "Power Circuit".
You should see blinking LED.

You can make a real circuit and use blinking LED for a Christmas tree or put it in a toy police car and give it as a gift to children.
