Assignment

Embedded Programming

The goal of this week assignment is to deal in depth with the embedded circuits and read the datasheet this will guide me to understand what's the main chip and how can I configure the pins.

It's 8-bit microcontroller with 2.7-5.5V operating voltage. And the main block digram is shown below

The block diagram usually shows the architecture of this microcontroller and the internal data buses and transfer. The IC can process 8 bit data at a time. Means it has to take 8 bit data from memory (which it has to process). Thus each location in memory is 8 bit and data bus is also 8 bit.

Now I started the programming phase ... I have to determain the ISP to program the circuit. We did Fab ISP and we can use Arduino IDE software to make the programming. I serched many times to understand the process and what shoul I do before I start. I've 1.8.6 IDE software and the recomindations tell me that I hvat to download older virsion to work perfectly. I visited Arduino website and downloaded 1.6.4 virsion. During the installation, the pop up message appeared to ask me if I want to install the program, the newest virsion will be removed at first. I clicked ok. The process started and the software installed successfully.

I connected the circuit to the Arduino board as I'm planning to use Arduino Uno as ISP.
