Atmel Studio 7 啟動時 Error ("ErrorListPackage did not load correctly") 解決方式

參考:
http://atmel.force.com/support/articles/en_US/Workaround/Installing-Visual-Studio-2015-Update-1-leads-to-Atmel-Studio-no-longer-starting

Root Cause

The Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 updates a dll that is shared between Atmel Studio and Visual Studio, without providing the correct dll load redirect information. Until we have had the chance to verify that this new dll (version 1.1.37) works with Atmel Studio, we suggest downloading the previous version (1.1.36) and place it in a load path for Atmel Studio with higher load precedence than the Visual Studio load path.

Workaround

This issue is fixed in Atmel Studio 7.0.790 and newer. If you are using an older version, use to following workaournd: Download System.Collections.Immutable (1.1.36) from nuget.org The file downloaded is a zip file with a .nupkg extension, rename the file to .zip  Open the zip file, go to the lib folder and into a folder called portable-net45%2Bwin8%2Bwp8%2Bwpa81 Copy the System.Collection.Immutable.dll file into one of the Atmel Studio load folders We suggest using '<installdir>\Extensions\Application', which might be 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Atmel\Studio\7.0\Extensions\Application' on your machine

使用 python 計算加入天數後的日期

要算出 2000/1/1 後的 100 天是幾月幾號?

import datetime
first_date = datetime.date(2000,1,1)
delta_day = datetime.timedelta(days=100)
cal_date = first_date+delta_day
print(cal_date)

讀取特定的行數

要讀取文字檔中的特定行數, 除了 for line in file(file) 之外;
使用內建函式 enumerate()

    for i, line in enumerate(fin,1):
        if i == 5:
            #do something
            break
    fin.close()


enumerate(iterable, start=0), 預設 start 是 0; 但是行數從 1 開始, 所以把 start 設為 1

開啟 csv 檔

要把 CSV 檔裡的欄位抓出來, 例如:

Time [s],Value,Parity Error,Framing Error
0,0xFF,,
0.0066405,0x00,,Error
0.513227,0x40,,

把 Value 這個欄位印出來:

import csv
fin = open('csvfile.csv')
for row in csv.DictReader(fin):
    print row['Value']

fin.close()

8051 Timer0 Mode0 (13 bits)

8051 Timer0 Mode0 (TMOD = 0x00) 是 13 bit timer, 要注意的是這裡 TL0 是 5 bits !!

TH0 (8 bits): 0~255
TL0 (5 bits): 0~31

所以在計算 overflow 時, 把計算值除 32 才是要給 TH0, 餘數給 TL0.
例如要在 1000 count overflow :

TH0 = (8192-1000)/32;
TL0 = (8192-1000)%32;

利用 python 經由 serial port 輸出資料

Python 需安裝 Python Serial Port Extension
  https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial

安裝方式:
. 下載 pyserial-3.0.1.tar.gz
. 解開 pyserial-3.0.1.tar.gz
. 進入解開壓縮檔的目錄下, 執行:

  python setup.py install

開始寫程式:

# coding=UTF-8

import time
import serial


ptn = [0xAA,0x50,0x60,0x70]

def main():
   
    ser = serial.Serial('COM3', 2400, timeout=0.5)
    ary = bytearray(ptn)
    ser.write(ary)
    time.sleep(0.1)
    ser.close()   

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()
