I'm working on a BMS project for an electric car. I'm using LTC6804-2 for voltage and temperature measurement in each cells. As a first step of development, I would like to establish a successful communication with the monitoring IC (LTC6804-2). So, I'm sending set config register command and trying to read back the config register values that I have written. If I receive the configuration register values without a CRC error, I consider my communication as successful.
In my case, I do not receive expected register values with proper CRC when I read back. Let me break down my situation into small segments.
I'm working on a custom BMS board for this project(LTC6804-2 and STM32F072). I will attach the schematics below. To test my code, I tested my program with DC1942C demo board and arduino UNO. And it is working fine. I can read back the config register and I can calculate the cell voltage and Auxiliary values.
When I try to implement the same program in my custom BMS board, I'm not getting the correct values. I always get CRC error in the received data.
Following the guidelines from the Analog Devices forum, I tested the Vref2 value after sending the config register command, and the voltage goes up to ~3V as expected. So the IC is receiving the message properly. But Why it is not transmitting back?
Below are the captures from the demo board and BMS custom board.
Register read capture from Arduino Uno and demo board DC1942C
Register read capture from the custom board
In fact I tested the program with STM32 development board and DC1942 demo board, I get the correct values.
Thank you for your help. If you want any additional details, please let me know.

We want our device (STM32-F446RE running FreeRTOS + Telit ME310G1 modem) to communicate to the AWS cloud. We are trying to follow the Cellular Interface Library Demo, in particular following this- diagram
We are using coreMQTT Agent, MbedTLS libraries, the amazon communication interface implementation for UART and amazon UART API implementation.
UART using 115200 baud rate.
Currently failing on the Cellular_Init function when trying to send the first AT command to the modem, specifically when calling the HAL_UART_TRANSMIT_IT function from the above comm interface send function. While debugging we see that the USART1_IRQHandler is called infinite times and nothing is sent through the UART communication.
We are using the default handler, do we need to implement it in any way?
void USART1_IRQHandler(void)
{
HAL_UART_IRQHandler(&huart1);
}
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Guy
Sounds like the UART line from HW point of view are not in a good state (High).
Did you check and ensure that the Power On sequence is done correctly? (Power On telit pin shall be high).
I expect you have some logic to translate the 1.8v to 3.3v and vice versa.
Can you check by measuring the different voltage that everything is OK?
If you verified all the point above.
Do you perform a reset on the telit side before starting the AT communication?
This ensure that you don't leave the module into a data mode where no AT commande are possible

Can anyone please explain how to establish a communication between stm32 dev board and gps module? I am not knowing how to send AT commands to gps module through MC through a source file through UART. Please clarify me in this aspect.
There is a lot of literature on STM32 and UARTs on the web. If I were you I would download the STM32CubeMX. This program generates most of the code for you. You select your processor (or development board), select the clocks and peripherals, and click Generate Code. It also comes with very handy example projects, and might even have a complete project with a working UART that you can put straight onto your board.
And I would first make sure my UART is fully working before connecting the GPS. This you can do by trying to echo. Connect your TX and RX pins with a wire. Then, everything you transmit you will receive as well. It's a easy test to see if everything is working.
I would also work through the TrueStudio IDE. It basically works plug and play
If you use the ublox module, you must use a serial port to communicate.
You have to connect RXD(ublox) to TXD(micro) and TXD(Ublox) to RXD(micro) ,
and config your StmCubemx like This :

If you have another question, please ask
First of all, I think you should test AT command with module sim through (USB to UART) to PC in order to understand procedure operation, such as: module sim - TCP/IP - thingspeak server. The next time, you can refer this link for code: https://bitbucket.org/mbari_peter/sim800-mqtt-ravi/src/78e36076c89b4618cf57a538f0c70f91b2b876dd/modemDrivers.ino?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default
If you have any questions or encounter any problems, you can ask! Thanks for reading!
Typically, GPS sends data # 1 Hz after starting up. You just need to capture this NMEA sentences and filter the receive buffer according to your requirement.
Try using UART receive interrupt. Make sure the baud rate of both GPS module and STM32 are same.
I have a GPS circuit board from china. The only information I can find on this thing is :"amoj GPS 04C www.amoj.com"
It has a serial (DB9) connection and I would like to determine how to putty into it or something.
How can I determine what the port settings that are required to access this?

The Jupiter TU60 serial interface is 9600 8N1 by default. The only sentence it will output automatically is the flash checksum message about a second after power up. Google the datasheet for the device and it will let you know about this.
To have it output the position and other information, you must command it to do so. There is a default set of commands that are active after power up. They begin with ## and are from the protocol used by Motorola. Refer to the M12+ Users Guide and Supplement (available online) for information on how to use these commands. I have been able to enter them from Realterm. The only tricky part is calculating the checksum. You can use most hex calculators to do that.
According to the datasheet, the unit goes into survey mode automatically and after about 24 hours goes into position hold. The 1PPS and 10KHz signals are valid to less than a microsecond after a few minutes after power up and to 50nS after a day. I have compared this to another standard I have to verify this. You can use the ##Ea command to get the status of the unit and the M12+ Manual will tell you how to decode it.
Look for $GP... messages at 4800 and 9600BPS as yegorich suggest. Common NMEA messages output by GPS devices are $GPGGA, $GPVTG, $GPRMC.. If you find that data coming out, use Google to look up NMEA 0183 sentence structure and you will have what you need...
I have the same board with the Navman jupiter T Tu60 GPS 1pps 10khz GPS Module on it. I just received my sma antenna and have hooked it up. I am using 12.6V power to the centre pin.
It outputs 1pps on the led with no signal, so that is not to be trusted. Mine is labeled 1pps and 10khz underneath the pcb but these are actually swapped! I put the 10KHz output on my dso and get a 10KHz square wave 50% duty cycle signal but there is ringing on the waveform rise so I have to set the trigger level to 0.8v to get the dso to register the 10KHz frequency. I suspect this may be because the output expects a load and is not seeing one. Now, was I using ac or dc coupling?
I too am getting nothing on the serial. I tried 9600, 4800 using putty on com1 (I have a nice old motherboard) and then tried reversing rx and tx but no luck. As of now I am checking out the serial signals with the dso to see if I can work out what is happenning. I suspect that these boards are rubbish, and useful as power supplies only.
It reads 10.0000 on my hp 5328a counter and sometimes reads 9.9999. It would be nice to be able to talk to the gps to see whether it has satellite lock.
Please let me know how you get on and if you find out any further info.

I have a SPI for MSP430 written. If I send WRSR(01h) or RDSR(05h) to M25P64 flash.
The response I get from the Flash SPI_MISO is FFh.
So my question is "Is the response I have obtained is it right?"
How do I come to an understanding that handshaking between my SPI and Flash is correct?
Thanks
AK
Is the response I have obtained is it right?
The response is wrong. 30 seconds on Google and in the datasheet will tell you that. Things to check (since you have not provided any information):
How do I come to an understanding that handshaking between my SPI and Flash is correct?
Is this a new piece of SPI code? If so have you checked with an oscilloscope to see what you send out (clock and MOSI) is what you expect and matches what the datasheet says the device expects? It's the definitive way to be sure.
Does your SPI code work with any other devices?
Are your IO pins configured correctly on the MSP430?
Have you got the SPI module configured correctly for phase and polarity?
Did you forget to assert the chip select line?
What about HOLD?
Did you remember to send a dummy byte after the RDSR command so that the device would send the status register value?
Do you see a response from the device on an oscilloscope? Does the MSP430 read that value or a different one?
You are sometimes better first of all trying to read the device ID rather than the status register for a new piece of code. The reason for that is the device ID will never change, whereas the status register might change (although that depends on the device).
I am working on a project which uses a PIC24FJ64GA002 mcu.
I am working on a bit-banged serial communication function that will use one wire to send data and then switch to receive mode to receive data on the same pin. A separate pin will be used for clocking which will always be controlled by a different board (always an input). I am wondering is there a way to configure the pin for open-collector operation that that it can be used as an input and and output or do I have to change the pin configuration every time i go from reading to writing?
You need to change the direction of the pin each time by using the TRIS register. If the pin is set up as an output, reading the PORT register will most likely only tell you what level you are driving the pin to (assuming there is a high impedance on the pin). If the pin is set for input, you won't be able to drive your desired output value.
Also, make sure that you read incoming data using the PORT register, but output the data using the LAT register. This ensures that you don't suffer any issues if your code (I assume you are programming in C here) gets converted into bset/bclr/btgl instructions which are Read-Modify-Write. If you are writing in assembler, the same rule applies but you know when you are using these R-M-W type instructions. If you want more reasoning on this, please ask.
