Programming Atmel's AVR Microcontrollers, The Chips That Power Arduino
Atmel's AVR microcontrollers are the chips that power the Arduino platform and are the go-to chip for many hobbyists and their hardware hacking projects. In this book, you set aside the layers of abstraction implemented by the Arduino environment and learn how to program AVR microcontrollers instantly. In doing so, you learn more about the chip, and you [...]
Using LabVIEW To Automate Arduino Projects Without Writing Code
If you already have some knowledge of working with LabVIEW and want to utilize your skills to control physical objects and make measurements using sensors under the Arduino platform, this book is for you. Prior knowledge of Arduino and LabVIEW is essential to understand the projects detailed in this book thoroughly. This book covers various projects that [...]
Build Autonomous Robots Using The Arduino Board And Software
This book supports you to breathe life into the robots of your dreams―without advanced electronics or programming skills. Arduino Robot Bonanza shows you how to build autonomous robots using ordinary tools and standard parts. Learn how to wire things up, program your robot's brain, and add your unique flair. This easy-to-follow, fully illustrated guide starts with the [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Recommended Literature
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & VInsert linkehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. There is more than plenty and valuable literature available on the Arduino, but, being an experienced programmer, the one and only work I read was:Programming ArduinoGetting Started with SketchesBy Simon MonkISBN 978-0071784221Also recommended for providing more background information:Controller Area Network [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Function Calls Description
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. j1939.Initvoid j1939.Init(int nSystemTime);Initializes the ARD1939’s memory, baud rate settings, etc.nSystemTime - This is the loop time of your application in milliseconds. This information will provide the ARD1939 protocol stack a time base to manage all timers required for various protocol tasks.Ideally, the system [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Application Structure
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. As with every Arduino application, the initialization of data and the J1939 protocol takes place during the setup() function, while the actual application resides in loop(). setup() - The j1939.Init function is mandatory to operate ARD1939. [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – ARD1939 Protocol Stack Reference
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. The functions available to the SAE J1939 application layer (i.e your program) are:Initialization j1939.Init – Initializes the protocol stack settings j1939.SetPreferredAddress – Sets the preferred node (source) address j1939.SetAddressRange– Sets the negotiable [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Debugging Macros
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Please be aware that the following macros are one-liners. Due to the limited page space, some macros appear as wrapped into more than one line and the line breaks are indicated with “\”. SAE J1939 has become the accepted industry standard and [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – RTS/CTS Session Test Program
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. Just for kicks, I extended the previously used Arduino sketch to simulate a fully functional RTS/CTS session (yet again, the code is highly tailored to the previous RTS/CTS session). Based on that sketch, I could simulate all error scenarios on the receiver’s side.This [...]
SAE J1939 Programming with Arduino – Conclusion
This post is part of a series about SAE J1939 ECU Programming & Vehicle Bus Simulation with Arduino. With all previous programming examples installed and explained, you should now have a pretty good grip on programming your own SAE J1939 application with the Arduino Uno and/or the Mega 2560.Yet, there are still numerous, possible scenarios for J1939 applications and all [...]
