AVR Port G

Hi folks,

i am working with an ATMEGA12816AI. I have some problems using the pins of PORT G as normal I/O. It seems that the Mega128 doesn't want to turn the ALE,WR,RD,TOSC1 and TOSC2 pins as normal I/O. I am sure that the processor isn't i M103 compatibility mode because the code perform a MUL instruction (and i test the result with a JTAG debugger). On the datasheet Atmel writes that the processor will use the pins of PORT G for special function ONLY if activated, alias the AS0 bit in ASSR for PG4/PG3 and the SRE bit in MCUCR for PG0/PG1/PG2. After a reset those peripherals are disabled.

Any suggestion ?

... Where you found information that mul instruction doesn't work on the mega128 in the mega103 comaptibility mode?

Did you read the extended fuse byte and look at M103C value?

When i read "JTAG ICE->Fuses" in AVR studio 4.08, it show the following fuses programmed:

ATmega103 Compatibility Mode (M103C=0) On-Chip Debug Enabled (OCDEN=0) JTAG Interface Enabled (JTAGEN=0) Serial program downloading (SPI) enabled (SPIEN=0) ... and other fuses about the boot flash size, brown out detection and clock option.

so i thought that it means "if M103C is equal to 0 then ATmega103 Compatibility mode is active".

I WAS WRONG. (and the datasheet show it in table 118 on page 289)

Moreover, i thought that Atmel ship their Mega128 ready to go for what they are. I was wrong again. You have to unprogram M103C fuse to enable the new pins features.

Finally, the "Mega103 compatibility mode" doesn't regard the instruction set.

Many thanks Artur.
