Hello,  I am trying to find the fuse settings Arduino has for the Uno Rev 3 (uses the ATMega328p).

I think the command looks something like this (based on verbose mode of the Arduino IDE)
avrdude -c arduino -p m328p -P /dev/cu.usbserial-AD01V737 

However, I cannot find what the fuse settings are.  I expect to see something of the following form:
-U lfuse:w:0x60:m -U hfuse:w:0xd9:m -U efuse:w:0xff:m

Where can I find this information?

Thanks

The fuse settings are in boards.txt.

The fuse settings are in boards.txt.

Thank you - I had forgotten about that file.  However, when I used the low, high and extra fuse settings and got the following:

Code:

avrdude -c arduino -p m328p -P /dev/cu.usbserial-AD01V737  -U lfuse:w:0xff:m -U hfuse:w:0xde:m -U efuse:w:0x05:m

Would you like this fuse to be changed back? [y/n]

I'm really confused.  Is it really looking for an input file for 0xff based on these lines?

Code:

avrdude: load data lfuse data from input file 0xff:
avrdude: input file 0xff contains 1 bytes

for completeness, the boards.txt file has the following entries for the uno board

avrdude -c arduino -p m328p -P /dev/cu.usbserial-AD01V737  -U lfuse:w:0xff:m -U hfuse:w:0xde:m -U efuse:w:0x05:m

You won't be able to modify (or even read) the fuses by using the bootloader; you'd need an external programming device (perhaps another Arduino running ArduinoISP.)

ahhh, thanks.  didn't realize that.

However, if I have an Uno Rev3 board with a bootloader already installed, how would I modify my avrdude command to upload a sketch via the command line?

avrdude -c arduino -p m328p -P /dev/cu.usbserial-AD01V737 -U flash:w:myfile.hex

[Reply #6 on:]

avrdude -c arduino -p m328p -P /dev/cu.usbserial-AD01V737 -U flash:w:myfile.hex

hmmm, I must be doing something wrong as I don't see the arduino board do the "blinking led" that the program is commanding it to do.

Code:

avr-gcc -Wall -Os -DF_CPU=16000000L -mmcu=atmega8 -c main.c -o main.o
avr-gcc -Wall -Os -DF_CPU=16000000L -mmcu=atmega8 -o main.elf main.o
rm -f main.hex
avr-objcopy -j .text -j .data -O ihex main.elf main.hex
avr-size --format=avr --mcu=atmega328p main.elf

avrdude done.  Thank you.

and here is main.c

Code:

#include <avr/io.h>
#include <util/delay.h>

int main(void)
{
    DDRD = 1 << 4;           /* make the LED pin an output */
    for(;;){
        char i;
        for(i = 0; i < 10; i++){
            _delay_ms(10);  /* max is 262.14 ms / F_CPU in MHz */
        }
        PORTD ^= 1 << 4;    /* toggle the LED */
    }
    return 0;               /* never reached */
}

If you're trying to blink the pin13 LED, it's on D5, not D4...

[Reply #8 on:]

I meant B5.   Cough.

MMCU   = atmega8
DEVICE     = atmega328p

That looks like a problem...

Great points.   I modified the sketch which worked in the Arduino environment but not on the command line.  When I used the hex file generated by Arduino, the command line worked.  So I think something is screwy with my compilation (or it is that MMCU issue you pointed out).  I'm almost there

[Reply #10 on:]

IT WORKED with MMCU=atmega328p

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
