68HC908 Convert frequency to cycle duration doesn't work

holgerkeil · ‎10-16-2014

Hi

I wanna convert a frequency in Hz to its cycle duration in µs. Example, frequency is 440, result shall be 2273

I tried this:

int round(double number){

return (number >= 0) ? (int)(number + 0.5) : (int)(number - 0.5);

}

int FrqGetUs(int frq){

double period;

period=(1/frq)*1000000;

return (round(period));

}

period=FrqGetUs(440);

but it doesn't work. In circuit, the µC appears to be caught in a reset-loop, and while in debugger, the µC freezes somewhere in ASM on the calculation of period=(1/frq)*100000; debugger reports "Communication with target lost".

Whats wrong with it?

I would also check the possibility of stack corruption (either due to program error, or insufficient stack allocation) which might also cause resets (e.g., due to illegal opcode or address). Although this does not seem to explain the difference in real vs debugger, but it's worth investigating (e.g., is the debugger version the exact same binary?)

holgerkeil · ‎10-17-2014

Hey you guys, thanks for helping. Im just within this debugger issue and found out: If I remove some code, it works. If I remove some other code instead, it works as well. Could it be possible that I'm simply running out of flash? However, I'd expect a warning if I try to write more code than the targets size is. And well, if the debugger access via MON08 may allocate some extra address space, that could be the explaination why it works in circuit but not in debug.

(I came across this cause I added two more example for() loops to the code, making it finally failing in circuit as well).

Best regards

Holger

Anybody else who can help? I hardly cannot believe that the 4k FLASH is already full. I have roughly 4K C sourcecode (including comments, formatings and stuff) and I thought that ASM is more compact than C

tonyp · ‎10-21-2014

Yes, everything else being equal, ASM is always shorter than C but, in case you hadn't noticed, your code is in C, not ASM. :smileyhappy:

It's hard to tell what your actual problem might be.

Looking at the produced map file, you should be able to tell how much room your code takes, and where (in case some falls outside valid memory ranges).

Your programmer should also warn you if you try to put code outside the specific variant's memory ranges. (Hint: Are you using the correct variant setting in your compiler and/or programmer?)

If indeed you have an insufficient memory problem I suspect you can easily solve it by just removing the floating point library from your code. Floating-point is notoriously expensive in terms of code size (and even execution speed).

You can always do any basic calculations (like the ones you showed) using plain integer arithmetic. This should lower the code space needed for your app possibly enough to solve your problem.

Without having access to your full project details, it's hard for someone to offer you more advice.

holgerkeil · ‎10-21-2014

Yes, the code is written in C. I thought it will be compiled to ASM by the IDE before its became loaded to the FLASH. However, this may not be that effective than directly coding in ASM (but the one and only time i wrote ASM was on 6502 - 20 years ago).

I've got a warning "Address out of range" sometimes during debugging, but not while programming. Probably this is an issue with the P&E interface - or better to say - it's software. The variant should be selected correctly.

I think there may be still the float library loaded, I'll doublecheck this later.

Apart from this, there is no problem to give access to the full code, it's not confidential. I can upload it later this evening.

Thanks so far.

>If I recall correctly, this was a branch or jump instruction where that warning appeared. The device is MC68HC908JL3ECDWE.

OK, if it's jumping to an illegal address for this MCU variant, it would cause a reset. Or, if it jumps to an area where there is NO valid opcode (e.g., data or garbage), again it would cause a reset.

To get rid of one possible problem at a time (not necessarily in this order):

* Verify object code address range is valid (by examining the produced map file.)

* Verify the JMP instruction is jumping where it should. If not, ask why. E.g., if it jumps to the correct label, but it turns out to be in nowhere land, then maybe your code has wrapped around the 64K limit, or some similar problem.

* Try to remove floating point, and make needed changes to your code.

First of all, I cannot reproduce the warning. I'd tried so many things the past days, that I can't recall exactly under what circumstances it happens. What I know is, it was shown only in full chip simulation, while in-circuit the connection to the target gots lost instead.

Then I took a look on the project.map file (it is still the version with floating point), but thats double dutch for me. I'm going to post it here, maybe you can point on the important things for me:

>First of all, I cannot reproduce the warning.

Does this also mean that your app is now functioning?

From a quick look, it seems this version (which is not the same as your original) does not use floats at all.

int FrqGetUs(int frq){

So, maybe this explains why you no longer see a problem. Try adding a single float operation, and see if the problem re-appears. (Then, you know the culprit.)

At any rate, if with the current version you no longer see a problem, is there a reason to investigate it further?

Or are you still having a problem with the exact one you posted?

holgerkeil · ‎10-21-2014

Sorry, no. We're again at that stage while debugger losts conection to target while debugging, but µc working in circuit. However, since it's not yet complete, it also fails in-circuit if I add two more for() loops. So the question was am I running out of memory and (where) can i figure out this (in project.map).

I don't use floats right now, but the respective library is still loaded. I dont want to try too many things at a time, finally not knowing what in detail had which effect. So it would be really helpful to know how much memory I use and to understand the changes if I use the integer library instead (If I would know that for instance, I have 1% Flash memory left with float and 2% with integer, I know that I need more than some cosmetic changes in order to fit the two remaining parts of code into the flash)

tonyp · ‎10-21-2014

I don't have much time right now to examine everything in detail. I will have a better look sometime tomorrow. But, to help you get going by yourself a little bit...

If you look at your map, you will see a lot of lines that list

Section Name Size Type From To Segment

The From/To shows in hex what addresses each listed section occupies.

It also shows each subroutine etc where it is located. I can see that you use Flash from EC00 to FFFF.

EDITED: WAIT A MINUTE. That's a range of 5119. How's that possible? (I will check more tomorrow.)

And, finally, a summary indicating you only use 1933 bytes of Flash (R = ReadOnly memory).

Summary of section sizes per section type:

READ_ONLY (R): 78D (dec: 1933)

READ_WRITE (R/W): 30 (dec: 48)

NO_INIT (N/I): 27 (dec: 39)

So, code size does not seem to be your problem. I will have a better look tomorrow, and get back to you if I see something suspicious. I also tried to run you app in the simulator, but unfortunately the version of CW10 I have here (which, I don't use so I don't know it well enough) does not support HC08, only S08, so I wasn't able to test-run your code.

holgerkeil · ‎10-21-2014

You don't need to hurry, I'm working on this since about two years or so, it's my free-evening-project, a day or a month doesn't care much :-)

But I appreciate any help I can find and I'm very pleased and thankful for your tips (i.e. now being able to figure out my code size).

tonyp · ‎10-21-2014

Can you also send (attachment) the pdeclaration.h file to get a clean compilation?

holgerkeil · ‎10-22-2014

I've attached pdeclaration.h as well as the device initialization code to the op.

tonyp · ‎10-22-2014

Still missing MC68HC908JL3E.h (and if there are more try to put them, also)

I'm sorry but I don't have any of those files, apparently. (Hmm, shouldn't they be part of the CW6.3 installation?)

holgerkeil · ‎10-22-2014

I bet it should, cause it's not part of the project folder (however. I've CW 5.9 installed) I'm going to locate and attach it to the op as well.

If you private message me your email address, I could zip and send you the entire project folder as well - just in case...

Edit: Both attached to op

holgerkeil · ‎10-22-2014

I will send it this evening when I'm back at home.

OK, technically, every language is eventually translated to machine code (which, because of its one-to-one correspondence with ASM, can be considered the same as saying to ASM). But, when we talk what language one uses we mean before the compiler does its job. Othewise, everybody would claim to be programming in assembly language, and there would be no mention of the higher level language.

"Address out of range" during the execution of what instruction? Can you see the disassembly (from your debugger) and post that? Also, please mention the exact MCU variant so we know what exactly we're dealing with.

Although I do all my MCU programming 100% in ASM, and my opinion could be viewed as biased by some, I would argue that, at least for the smaller memory devices (say, up to 8K Flash), programming in C is not the right approach, except for trivial apps. So, either get a bigger memory MCU, or switch this project to ASM.

Ok for that, but that doesn't count when it is about the code size used in flash memory. I would love to code this in ASM, however it would take me years to finish since as I've learned 20 years ago, I found ASM kinda annoying. I admire everybody who can to this with ease.

If I recall correctly, this was a branch or jump instruction where that warning appeared. The device is MC68HC908JL3ECDWE. I will check for the debugger output later when I'm @home and will post the scourcecode as well. Its not a big thing, should become a control for rotary plate for 360° photography. Decodes a 10throw rotary switch, generates pulses for a stepmotor, two pushbuttons, two LEDs. It just misses the acceleration ramp and 48kHz modulated code output for infrared transmitter (camera remote).

Hi Tony,

Not wanting to hijack the thread but I was interested in your comment regarding not using C in smaller memory devices. Would you elaborate as to why you'd make this choice? I presume it's simply the overhead of C and coding more efficiently in assembler? While I'm also a big fan of assembler I would perhaps question how far one would go with it before switching to C.

Thanks,

Ian
