Programming Tutorial Chapter 1. This article series is developed to teach you 8. I have divided this programming tutorial into a series of chapters as shown below. So you can start with Chapter 1 and then move to chapter 2 and chapter 3 and so on. So lets begin the journey right now Note Next chapters 1,2,3. Please visit this page again for updates. Note To test any of these program or to write one your own and test, you dont need to buy a microcontroller board now. You can test your program using an 8. Here is a big list of 8. In the beginning try the first one given in the list, Edsim. Its an easy to use tool. To program any microcontroller available in this world, first you need to learn and understand its instruction sets. Instruction set contains a set of instructions that is available for the programmer to create any kind of program he likes. Or in another way, using the instruction set a programmer can create the program required for the specific application he is making. So first of all one needs to master all available instructions, how an instruction works, how the execution of an instruction affects the microcontroller affecting the registers, psw, stack etc and the way it is used in a program. Once the instruction set is mastered, you can start playing with programs. Before getting into programming, there are some prerequisites. If you are really new to micro controller and if 8. Difference between Microprocessor and Micro controller. Basics of 8. 05. 1 Microcontroller Pin diagram Architecture Memory Organization. Addressing modes of 8. You must read this article before writing any program for 8. Special Function Registers and IO Ports. Now lets come to instruction sets of 8. The 8. 05. 1 instruction set can be classified as shown below. Instructions for data transfer data move. Instructions for arithmetic operations. Instructions for branching a program. Instruction for creating subroutines. Instructions for logical operations. Instructions for boolean operations Special purpose instructions. Follow the given link, where you can access the complete list of instructions for 8. Instruction Set  see the heading Alphabetical order below first table. Ds1307 Programming In CNote 8. MCS 5. This basically means,any 8. MCS 5. 1 family made by any other manufacturer must use the same set of instructions made for MCS 5. So the instruction decoder part of all micro controllers under MCS 5. Example Atmels AT8. MCS 5. 1 family. So a program written for Intel 8. AT8. 9C2. 05. 1 too you may have to make slight modifications to match hardware disparities. Instructions for data transfer includes MOV, MOVC, MOVX, PUSH, POP, XCH, XCHD2. Instructions for arithmetic operations are ADD, ADDC, SUBB, MUL, DIV, INC, DEC, DA A3. Instructions for branching and subroutines LJMP, AJMP, SJMP, LCALL, ACALL, JZ, JNZ, CJNE, DJNZ, JMP, NOP, RET, RETI4. Instructions for logical operations ANL, ORL, XRL, CLR, CPL, RL, RLC, RR, RRC, SWAP5. Instructions for boolean variable operations SETB, MOV, CLR, JB, JNB, JBC, ANL, ORL, CPL, JC, JNC6. Special purpose instructions involves MOVC, MOVX, SWAP, XCH, XCHD, JBC, RETI, DA AYou may learn about all instructions in detail by following that link given above. There are 4. 4 instructions in 8. MCS 5. 1 instruction set. I assume you have gone through data transferarithmeticbranching and subroutine instructions by now. Ds1307 Programming For DummiesNow lets write a very simple program. A program to find sum of N natural numbers and store the sum. Program description The number N is stored in location 3. H. Natural numbers generated from 0 to N must be stored from location 5. H. The sum of natural numbers must be stored in location 3. H. Analyzing the program description, we need 3 registers. R0 to store the value of N  given in location 3. Hand to act as a counter for generating natural numbers upto N. R5 is used to save the value of first storage location of natural numbers and then R5 is incremented by one each to store each newly generated natural number. Time-Keeper-Registers.png' alt='Ds1307 Programming C' title='Ds1307 Programming C' />R7 is initiated as 0 and is incremented by 1 to generate natural numbers. The Program MOV PSW, 0. H Register bank 0 is selected by executing this instruction. MOV R0, 3. 5H The value of N stored in location 3. H is transfered to R0. MOV R5, 5. 5H The starting location for storing natural numbers 5. H is transfered to R5. MOV A, 0. 0H Accumulator is initiated with value 0 for adding natural numbers cumulatively. MOV R7, 0. 0H R7 is initialized to 0 to generate natural numbers. Note 0 is not a natural number. LOOP INC R7 R7 is incremented by 1 to generate next natural number. MOV R5, 0. 7H This is indirect addressing mode used here. It is not possible to transfer data from one register to another register directly. So an instruction like MOV R5, R7 is invalid. Instead we use the direct address 0. R7 of register bank 0. R5. Indirect addressing is used as we need to save the generated natural number directly to memory address. R5 holds the starting location address of the storage area as its value i. H. By indirectly addressing, we can save what ever value in R7 directly to location 5. H. INC R5 The storage location is incremented by 1 from 5. H to 5. 6H to store the next generated natural number ADD A, R7 The generated natural number is added to contents in accumulator. DJNZ R0, LOOP The value of register Ro value of N is decremented by 1. It is checked against stopping condition zero. If its R0 is not equal to zero, the program control will move to label LOOP again and the steps from INC R7 will be executed again until R0 is equal to zero. Digital-Clock-with-DS1307.jpg' alt='Ds1307 Programming Error' title='Ds1307 Programming Error' />When R0 is equal to zero, program control will exit the loop and move to next instruction given below. MOV 3. 6H,A The sum of natural numbers in accumulator is moved to storage location 3. H. STOP SJMP STOP An infinite loop written at the end of the program. When this instruction is reached program control will get stuck at this instruction as its an infinite loop. To get out of this infinite loop system reset must be applied. A simple program to copy a block of data from one location to another. Program Description 1. H is to be copied to another location staring from 5. Basic electronics and hobby projects featuring Arduino, Picaxe, Microchip PIC. Temperature logging sketch with SD card, webserver, I2C LCD and DS1307 RTC that syncs with timeserver. H. Analyzing the program, we see, we need two registers to store starting locations of source and destination. Lets say we take R0 as the source and R2 as the destination registers. Now we need a counter to count 1. Lets take R3 for that. It is not possible to transfer data from one register to another register directly by using any kind of addressing mode. So we need accumulator to stand in between as a temporary register. So here is it The Program MOV R0,3. H Address of the starting location of source data is moved to R0. MOV R1,5. 0H Address of the starting location of destination is moved to R1. MOV R3,OAH Set the counter R3 with 1. You can also use decimal number as MOV R3,1. LOOP MOV A, R0 Indirect addressing mode is used. Contents at the location of Ro 3. H is copied to accumulator. MOV R1, A Contents in accumulator is copied to location pointed by Ra that is 5. H. INC R0 Ro is incremented by 1 to point to next location. INC R1 R1 is incremented by 1 to point to next location. DJNZ R3, LOOP Counter register R3 is decremented by 1 and checked against zero. See the explanation DJNZ in the first program sum of natural numbersSTOP SJMP STOP Infinite loop to terminate programh.
