My First Program in mikroPascal PRO for AVR 2009

The following code sample includes a simple loop for performing A/D conversion on MCU PORTA and sending results to LEDs connected to PORTB and PORTC. Examine these code lines carefully in order to see how our humble example deals with A/D conversion. mikroPascal PRO for AVR 2009 spares you from consulting the manual for specific MCU, code adjustments for different AVR models and address arithmetic. Just let the compiler take care of it.

program ADC_on_LEDs;

var adc_rd : word;

begin

  DDRB := 0xFF;               // set PORTB as output
  DDRC := 0xFF;               // set PORTC as output
  
  while (TRUE) do
    begin
      adc_rd := ADC_Read(2);  // get ADC value from the 2nd channel
      PORTB := adc_rd;        // display adc_rd[7..0]
      PORTC := Hi(adc_rd);    // display adc_rd[9..8]
    end;
end.

IDE - Integrated Development Environment

The compiler's IDE is designed to maximize programmers' productivity by providing a set of software components in the form of a single program in which all development can be done. These software components eliminate the need for installation of additional software.

IDE Features

Code Editor

Code Editor is a text editor used for editing source code. It features Code Assistant, Parameter Assistant, Auto Correct, Code Templates, Syntax Highlighting, etc. It is designed to satisfy the needs of both novices and experienced programmers. Due to this editor, you can easily develop your applications.

Project Manager

The compiler's IDE consists of an intuitive Project Manager which aims to provide a simple, but very usable development environment for all programmers' needs. The Project Manager enables you to manage multiple projects and organize your source codes easily.

Code Explorer

Code Explorer enables you to list variables, functions and other program items for any file of your project. All you need to do is to click on an element and the main window will be positioned to its definition line. This feature is very useful for finding elements in long files as it lists project elements in one place.

Library Manager

Library Manager helps you manage different types of libraries being used in the project. You can add a desired library to the project by checking the box next to the library name.

Routine List

Routine List displays a list of routines and enables them to be filtered by name. This feature allows programmers to search and find routines just by double clicking desired routine. This tool also saves your time by simplifying routine search especially in long source codes.

Project Settings

Project Settings allows you to set up your project quickly. You just have to enter data that is relevant to your project such as AVR microcontroller selection and MCU Clock frequency.

Bookmarks

Bookmarks is a feature that allows you to add a bookmark to a code line in the project. Instead of navigating manually between files and through the code, you can use this feature to jump directly to the desired location. You can create many bookmarks as you want throughout your projects and quickly navigate between them.

Macros

Macros allow you to save your actions and reuse them later in your projects. This option enables you to create very complex macros which can save hours and hours of your work. Macros allow you to record the sequence of keystrokes and locators used to perform a task and reuse them later when and if required.

Messages

Messages window displays status messages for various features in the integrated development environment (IDE). It shows how the program compilation is performed as well as various responses to the project compilation and linking. It allows you to easily track down compilation errors in your project source code.

Software Simulator

The compiler includes an excellent source-level debugger that helps you troubleshoot and repair your application faster. You can debug your project with a software simulator that simulates microcontroller's operation in the compiler's IDE.

Watch Window

Watch Values window may be used to inspect and edit any expression, including global variables, static variables, local variables, function arguments and registers. It allows you to inspect the program and discover bugs immediately while the program is running, thus saving a lot of development time.

It is also possible to modify program items in order to test various Run-Time situations.

Breakpoints

Breakpoints are temporary markers you can place in your program code to instruct the debugger where to stop the program. With breakpoints you can easily reach the part of code that is critical for debugging and testing. You just need to set a breakpoint and your project is ready for debugging.

Stopwatch

Stopwatch is a debugger feature used to display a current count of cycles/time since the last debugger action occured. Stopwatch measures the execution time (number of cycles) from the moment the debugger has started and can be reset at any time.

This tool is ideal for calculating the time required for executing any part of the code. In other words, you can easily track how long it takes for each part of the code to be executed, which further helps you perform the rest of application efficiently.

Statistics

The compiler's IDE features Statistics window which shows a complete statistics for your project such as RAM Memory Usage, Used RAM Locations, SFR Locations, ROM Memory Usage, ROM Memory Constants, Functions Sorted By Name, Functions Sorted By Size, Functions Sorted By Addresses, Functions Sorted By Name Chart, Functions Sorted By Size Chart, Functions Sorted By Addresses Chart, Function Tree and Memory Summary.

ASCII Chart

ASCII Chart is a handy tool, particularly useful when working with LCD display.

USART Terminal

USART Terminal is tool for RS232 communication - baud rate control, RTS and DTR commands.

EEPROM Editor Tool

EEPROM Editor Tool allows you to easily manage EEPROM of AVR microcontrollers.

UDP Communication Terminal

UDP Communication Terminal is a tool for Ethernet UDP communication used to send UDP packets to a specified IP address, specified port, etc.

GLCD Bitmap Generator Tool

Graphic LCD Bitmap Generator Tool is used for converting bitmap to mikroPascal compatible code.

7 Segment Display Decoder

7 Segment Display Decoder is a convenient visual panel which returns decimal/hex value for 7seg Display.
