temparus / LEDcube

A small project using a microcontroller and LEDs

Source code for LEDcube

This code is for board versions 1.*

Setup

1. Install the Arduino IDE (See www.arduino.cc)

2. Copy the content of the folder bootloaders into

   • Windows: <Arduino Installation>/hardware/arduino/avr/bootloaders/
   • Mac OS X: /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/java/hardware/arduino/avr/bootloaders/

3. Copy the folder mega32 to

   • Windows: <Arduino Installation>/hardware/arduino/avr/variants
   • Mac OS X: /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/java/hardware/arduino/avr/variants

4. Append the following text to

   • Windows: <Arduino Installation>/hardware/arduino/avr/boards.txt
   • Mac OS X: /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/java/hardware/arduino/avr/boards.txt

   ledcube.name=LEDcube
   ledcube.build.mcu=atmega8
   ledcube.build.f_cpu=14745600L
   ledcube.build.core=arduino
   ledcube.upload.tool=avrdude
   ledcube.upload.protocol=arduino
   ledcube.upload.speed=19200
   ledcube.bootloader.tool=avrdude
   ledcube.bootloader.unlock_bits=0x3F
   ledcube.bootloader.lock_bits=0x0F
   
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8=ATmega8 (4x4x4)
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.upload.maximum_size=7168
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.upload.maximum_data_size=1024
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.build.mcu=atmega8
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.build.variant=standard
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.build.board=X4
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.bootloader.low_fuses=0x3f
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.bootloader.high_fuses=0xca
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega8.bootloader.file=atmega8/ATmegaBOOT_14MHz.hex
   
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega32=ATmega32 (8x8x8)
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega32.upload.maximum_size=30720
   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega32.upload.maximum_data_size=2048

   ledcube.menu.cpu.atmega32.bootloader.file=atmega/ATmegaBOOT_168_atmega32_14MHz.hex
   

5. Fix Serial library for ATmega32. Open

   • Windows: <Arduino Installation>/hardware/arduino/avr/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp
   • Mac OS X: /Applications/Arduino.app/Contents/java/hardware/arduino/avr/cores/arduino/HardwareSerial.cpp

   Replace:

   #if defined(__AVR_ATmega8__)
      config |= 0x80; // select UCSRC register (shared with UBRRH) 
   #endif
   

   With:

   #if defined(__AVR_ATmega8__) || defined(__AVR_ATmega32__) || defined(__AVR_ATmega16__)
      config |= 0x80; // select UCSRC register (shared with UBRRH) 
   #endif
