Suggestions for new microcontroller support

[sandinugraha]

Hi Matrix Devs,

I know this has been discussed in previous forums regarding the possibility of FC providing support to be able to program the ESP8266 directly, not just as a component. So my hope is that if possible, that support for ESP8266 can be included in the next update. Why ? because the application of this chip can still be used and still fulfills the functional needs of several applications that do not require capabilities such as the ESP32, there are also still many available on the market and there are many development modules that utilize this type of chipset directly, not just as a WiFi component.

Hello,
am I in the right place to get an answer?

I need the support of the PIC18F04/05/14/15Q41 family urgently for some new projects.
Since more than 1 year nobody has replied here.

I don't know why.

This PICxxQ41 family has double speed, double memory
and very extensive peripherals.

Thank you
Dirk

Hi Dirk sorry for the delay.
I'm going to be looking into this and I will keep you updated.

Hi Martin

thanks

Hi Dirk
The fcd has been created.
As there will be component cal issues, then there is extensive work to do.
This is added to the list of other projects that require doing.
I have attached the 18F15Q41.
You will need to place it in

Code: Select all

%ProgramData%\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\FCD\PIC

Just copy and paste within project explorer as the folder is hidden by default.
If flowcode was open when you added the fcdx file, you will need to close and reopen again

If you create your project then the components that are not working can fixed first.

Hello Martin,
many thanks for that. Is the component for one chip or for the complete
PIC18F04/05/06/14/15/16/Q41 family family? If so, how do you set this?

Regards
Dirk

Hello Martin,
unfortunately there is an error message because of the I2C.


C:\ProgramData\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\CAL\PIC\PIC_CAL_I2C.c:127 error: (103) #error: "I2C does not have the SSPIF defined on this chip - does your chip support this feature?"

I have ported my project from the PIC18F14K22 to the PIC18F15Q41 and created new I2C components. What could be the reason?

Thank you very much
Dirk

Hello Martin,
the uart-component too

C:\ProgramData\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\CAL\PIC\PIC_CAL_UART.c:541:1: error: (192) undefined identifier "RX1PPS"
C:\ProgramData\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\CAL\PIC\PIC_CAL_UART.c:585:17: error: (255) not a member of the struct/union ""
C:\ProgramData\MatrixTSL\FlowcodeV10\CAL\PIC\PIC_CAL_UART.c:585:20: error: (182) illegal conversion between types

Thanks Dirk.
The next phase is to add components to the spreadsheet for testing.
The reason I asked is since there are a lot of components to test, I wanted to place yours at the top.
As the registers are different, this will take time as doing other work as well.

Is the component for one chip or for the complete
PIC18F04/05/06/14/15/16/Q41 family family? If so, how do you set this?

When I get the components to work, then all the Q41 family will be added.
