Simple PWM controller
=====================

`https://bues.ch/cgit/simplepwm.git/ `_

Simplepwm is a small PWM brightness controller for LED lamps.


Microcontroller
===============

Simplepwm supports the following microcontrollers. Not all features are supported on all microcontrollers. See the table for details.

============================ =========== ============ ========= ========= ========= =========
.. ATMega-328P ATMega-88(P) ATTiny-85 ATTiny-45 ATTiny-25 ATTiny-13
============================ =========== ============ ========= ========= ========= =========
Number of analog pot. inputs 3 3 1 1 1 1
Number of PWM outputs 3 3 1 1 1 1
Power saving x x x
Battery voltage monitoring x x x
HSL color model x x
Remote control via UART x x
Settings in EEPROM x x

Hardware schematics
===================

Schematics for ATMega based setups: `schematics-atmega/simplepwm-atmega.pdf `_

Schematics for ATTiny based setups: `schematics-attiny/simplepwm-attiny.pdf `_


Prebuilt firmware images
========================

The release archives of simplepwm contain prebuilt `.hex` files for all supported microcontrollers in the `hex` directory. These hex files can be flashed directly to the microcontroller with a any tool of your choice (e.g. Atmel Studio or avrdude).

The corresponding fuse settings can be found in the file `fuses.txt` in the same directory.


Building the firmware
=====================

The firmware build needs the following tool chain:

* Unix-like operating system
* GNU make
* AVR GCC
* AVR Binutils
* avrdude

Run the following commands to build the firmware:

.. code:: sh

cd firmware
make DEV=t85

Please specify the target microcontroller using the DEV variable as shown above.

Valid values are:

=============== ===========
Microcontroller make option
=============== ===========
ATTiny 13 `DEV=t13`
ATTiny 25 `DEV=t25`
ATTiny 45 `DEV=t45`
ATTiny 85 `DEV=t85`
ATMega 88 `DEV=m88`
ATMega 88P `DEV=m88p`
ATMega 328P `DEV=m328p`
=============== ===========

Additional build options that can be passed to `make`:

=============== ====== ============== ================================================================
make option values default description
=============== ====== ============== ================================================================
CONF_PWMLIM 1-100 100 Limit the maximum PWM duty cycle to this percentage.
CONF_PWMINVERT 0-1 0 Invert the PWM output signal(s).
CONF_LOWSPFACT float 1.0 Correction factor for lower range PWM setpoint.
CONF_ADCINVERT 0-1 0 Invert the ADC input signal(s).
CONF_ADCHSL 0-1 depends on DEV Interpret the ADC input signals as HSL setpoints instead of RGB.
FEAT_HIGHRES 0-1 depends on DEV Higher resolution in very low PWM setpoint range.
FEAT_BATTERY 0-1 depends on DEV Battery voltage monitoring
FEAT_POWERSAVE 0-1 depends on DEV Power saving / deep sleep
FEAT_REMOTE 0-1 depends on DEV Remote control via UART
FEAT_EEPROM 0-1 depends on DEV Store settings to EEPROM
FEAT_BOOT 0-1 depends on DEV Enable bootloader and firmware updating via UART.
=============== ====== ============== ================================================================


Flashing the firmware via serial bootloader after build
=======================================================

Run the following commands to flash the firmware via serial bootloader to the target microcontroller.

This only works, if there's already a previous version of SimplePWM running on the chip. If the chip is blank, refer to ISP flashing below.

.. code:: sh

cd firmware
./flash-usb.sh /dev/ttyUSB0


Flashing the firmware via ISP adapter after build
=================================================

Run the following commands to flash the firmware via ISP (In System Programmer hardware adapter) to the target microcontroller:

.. code:: sh

cd firmware
make DEV=t85 print_fuses
make DEV=t85 write_fuses
make DEV=t85 write_mem

Or alternatively use any other of the available AVR flashing tools to program the .hex file and fuses.
