This page is about getting started as fast as possible with
programming the AVR micro controller.
GNU tools are chosen since they impose no limits of program size, which some half-free alternatives does.
If your target Micro controller is not at90s8515
"MCU name" to the name of your Micro controller in the Makefile.
The different codes for the different MCU´s is in the gcc.info file
that comes with WinAVR (C:\WinAVR\info), you might need to search for "at90s8515" to
find the list of MCU types.
If you are not using the stk200 kit
you also need to set
AVRDUDE_PROGRAMMER = ...See the avrdude project for more info.
If you are not using the standard printer port
Edit AVRDUDE_PORT = ...
Open test1.c with Programmers Notepad
Do: Tools->Make All
with a little luck you get Errors: none
Do: Tools->Make Program
And if your STK200 is connected, switched on and has power ;-),
some of the LED's will light up as the MCU is programmed.
Then after a while only one LED will be on, and which LED
will be changing.
If that dont happens, you can check that the LED's are connected
to PORTB, if they are on PORTC e.g. you need to change
DDRB to DDRC and PORTB to PORTC in test1.c
Done! Just edit the program to do what you want ;-)
You can of course use XEmacs for windows and issue the make command from it
instead of using the Programmers Notepad.
