ATA5278 Application Software
The software on the CD-ROM, written in Visual Basic, is used to control the transmitter unit, pro-
moting the substantial IC features and providing easy control using the menu on the host
computer.
The software installation is performed by a self-extracting setup file contained on the CD-ROM
(see Section
The host communicates via software with the AVR microcontroller ATmega8515 located on the
baseboard. Further, the microcontroller, programmed in C, also maintains the dialog with the
ATAB5278 transmitter IC via its SPI interface.
When executing the program file ATA5278.exe, the setup menu as seen in
The menu enables setting and checking of configuration states as well creating, saving and
reloading the data protocol to be sent. An appropriate protocol data file for the ATAB5282
receiver board is loaded by default. The command set and status information displayed by menu
based on the SPI command structure described in the data sheet for ATA5278.
