This is the Readme file to Objective Development's firmware-only USB driver
|
|
for Atmel AVR microcontrollers. For more information please visit
|
|
http://www.obdev.at/avrusb/
|
|
|
|
This directory contains the USB firmware only. Copy it as-is to your own
|
|
project and add your own version of "usbconfig.h". A template for your own
|
|
"usbconfig.h" can be found in "usbconfig-prototype.h" in this directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
TECHNICAL DOCUMENTATION
|
|
=======================
|
|
The technical documentation (API) for the firmware driver is contained in the
|
|
file "usbdrv.h". Please read all of it carefully! Configuration options are
|
|
documented in "usbconfig-prototype.h".
|
|
|
|
The driver consists of the following files:
|
|
Readme.txt ............. The file you are currently reading.
|
|
Changelog.txt .......... Release notes for all versions of the driver.
|
|
usbdrv.h ............... Driver interface definitions and technical docs.
|
|
* usbdrv.c ............... High level language part of the driver. Link this
|
|
module to your code!
|
|
* usbdrvasm.S ............ Assembler part of the driver. This module is mostly
|
|
a stub and includes one of the usbdrvasm*.S files
|
|
depending on processor clock. Link this module to
|
|
your code!
|
|
usbdrvasm12.S .......... 12 MHz version of the assembler routines. Included
|
|
by usbdrvasm.S, don't link it directly!
|
|
usbdrvasm16.S .......... 16 MHz version of the assembler routines. Included
|
|
by usbdrvasm.S, don't link it directly!
|
|
usbdrvasm165.S ......... 16.5 MHz version of the assembler routines including
|
|
a PLL so that an 1% accurate RC oscillator can be
|
|
used. Included by usbdrvasm.S, don't link directly!
|
|
usbconfig-prototype.h .. Prototype for your own usbdrv.h file.
|
|
* oddebug.c .............. Debug functions. Only used when DEBUG_LEVEL is
|
|
defined to a value greater than 0. Link this module
|
|
to your code!
|
|
oddebug.h .............. Interface definitions of the debug module.
|
|
iarcompat.h ............ Compatibility definitions for IAR C-compiler.
|
|
usbdrvasm.asm .......... Compatibility stub for IAR-C-compiler. Use this
|
|
module instead of usbdrvasm.S when you assembler
|
|
with IAR's tools.
|
|
License.txt ............ Open Source license for this driver.
|
|
CommercialLicense.txt .. Optional commercial license for this driver.
|
|
USBID-License.txt ...... Terms and conditions for using particular USB ID
|
|
values for particular purposes.
|
|
|
|

CPU CORE CLOCK FREQUENCY
|
|
========================
|
|
We supply assembler modules for clock frequencies of 12 MHz, 16 MHz and
|
|
16.5 MHz. Other clock rates are not supported. The actual clock rate must be
|
|
configured in usbdrv.h unless you use the default 12 MHz.
|
|
|
|
12 MHz Clock
|
|
This is the traditional clock rate of AVR-USB because it's the lowest clock
|
|
rate where the timing constraints of the USB spec can be met.
|
|
|
|
16 MHz Clock
|
|
This clock rate has been added for users of the Arduino board and other
|
|
ready-made boards which come with a fixed 16 MHz crystal. It's also an option
|
|
if you need the slightly higher clock rate for performance reasons. Since
|
|
16 MHz is not divisible by the USB low speed bit clock of 1.5 MHz, the code
|
|
is somewhat tricky and has to insert a leap cycle every third byte.
|
|
|
|
16.5 MHz Clock
|
|
The assembler module for this clock rate differs from the other modules because
|
|
it has been built for an RC oscillator with only 1% precision. The receiver
|
|
code inserts leap cycles to compensate for clock deviations. 1% is also the
|
|
precision which can be achieved by calibrating the internal RC oscillator of
|
|
the AVR. Please note that only AVRs with internal 64 MHz PLL oscillator can be
|
|
used since the 8 MHz RC oscillator cannot be trimmed up to 16.5 MHz. This
|
|
includes the very popular ATTiny25, ATTiny45, ATTiny85 series as well as the
|
|
ATTiny26.
|
|
|
|
We recommend that you obtain appropriate calibration values for 16.5 MHz core
|
|
clock at programming time and store it in flash or EEPROM or compute the value
|
|
from a reference clock at run time. However, since Atmel's 8 MHz calibration
|
|
is much more precise than the guaranteed 10%, it's usually possible to add a
|
|
fixed offset to this value.
|
|
|
|
|
|
USB IDENTIFIERS
|
|
===============
|
|
Every USB device needs a vendor- and a product-identifier (VID and PID). VIDs
|
|
are obtained from usb.org for a price of 1,500 USD. Once you have a VID, you
|
|
can assign PIDs at will.
|
|
|
|
Since an entry level cost of 1,500 USD is too high for most small companies
|
|
and hobbyists, we provide a single VID/PID pair for free. If you want to use
|
|
your own VID and PID instead of our's, define the macros "USB_CFG_VENDOR_ID"
|
|
and "USB_CFG_DEVICE_ID" accordingly in "usbconfig.h".
|
|
|
|
To use our predefined VID/PID pair, you MUST conform to a couple of
|
|
requirements. See the file "USBID-License.txt" for details.
|
|
|
|
Objective Development also has some offerings which include product IDs. See
|
|
http://www.obdev.at/avrusb/ for details.

|
HOST DRIVER
|
|
===========
|
|
You have received this driver together with an example device implementation
|
|
and an example host driver. The host driver is based on libusb and compiles
|
|
on various Unix flavors (Linux, BSD, Mac OS X). It also compiles natively on
|
|
Windows using MinGW (see www.mingw.org) and libusb-win32 (see
|
|
libusb-win32.sourceforge.net). The "Automator" project contains a native
|
|
Windows host driver (not based on libusb) for Human Interface Devices.
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM
|
|
==================
|
|
This driver has been developed and optimized for the GNU compiler version 3
|
|
(gcc 3). It does work well with gcc 4 and future versions will probably be
|
|
optimized for gcc 4. We recommend that you use the GNU compiler suite because
|
|
it is freely available. AVR-USB has also been ported to the IAR compiler and
|
|
assembler. It has been tested with IAR 4.10B/W32 and 4.12A/W32 on an ATmega8
|
|
with the "small" and "tiny" memory model. Please note that gcc is more
|
|
efficient for usbdrv.c because this module has been deliberately optimized
|
|
for gcc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
