This is a collection of makefiles for building AVR microcontroller projects using the GNU toolchain (avr-gcc). Makefile targets are also included for burning the compiled images to flash using a variety of programming methods.
Create a Makefile in your project directory with the following:
MCU_FAM=mega
MCU_MODEL=328
PROJECT=example
SOURCE=main.c timer.c eeprom.c
INC=
LIBS=
PROGMODE=isp
include defaults.mk
include build.mk
include program.mk
MCU_FAM and MCU_MODEL set the chip being used (compiler -mmcu= and avrdude -p flags are calculated from these). PROJECT is the name of the project, used as a base for the output files. SOURCE is a list of source code files (.c .cc .cpp and .S are allowed). INC and LIBS set additional include directories and libraries. PROGMODE sets the programming protocol to be used for writing the program to flash.
The default makefile target (all) will compile all source files, link to a single .elf, and generate a .hex programming file.
The install target will write the compiled program to flash memory. A number of programming methods are supported, controlled by the PROGMODE variable:
- PROGMODE=serial Use a serial programmer or bootloader such as an STK500 board, Arduino bootloader, Xboot, etc.
- PROGMODE=isp Use SPI-based ISP (In-System Programming) with a programmer such as the AVR ISP Mk.II, JTAG ICE, Atmel ICE, etc.
- PROGMODE=pdi Use XMEGA PDI (Program and Debug Interface).
- PROGMODE=updi Use the UPDI (Unified Programming and Debug Interface) with a UART adapter and the avr-updi tool (from the Device-AVR-UPDI CPAN distribution).
Features for the future:
- Some way to handle libraries
- Other programming modes like JTAG, HVSP, TPI
