For enable use external (LSE) clock generator need un comment in Makefile
#UDEFS+= -DVNA_USE_LSE
By default use internal (LSI) clock generator, but it stop then VNA power off
For enable use external (LSE) clock generator, need install 32.768kHz clock quartz on PC14 and PC15 pins, it allow clock run while power off
For enable use RTC in code uncomment in nanovna.h
#define __USE_RTC__
This enable command 'time'
usage: time [y|m|d|h|min|sec] 0-99
Example set 2020 year run 'time y 20'
Add show current time in version screen
Better use font size constants for all screen size
Add support direct clock for AIC3204 from si5351
Now possible made calibration and not reset old calibration data, just made another calibration (not need reset or disable correction).
Open - Short calibration depend from self, need recalibrate it together.
Load calibration possible made alone
Isoln, Thru also depend from self, need recalibrate it together.
- bandwidth count stored in menu (less error on add new values)
- allow set any bandwidth count from command
- bandwidth command print bandwidth freq on apply
- Not reset sweep on request
- Better menu response
- little DSP optimization
Faster i2c bus (now 600kHz, allow more faster add settings)
Add i2c command (disabled by default)
Little fix stat command
In plot.c prepare for 8bit/pixel mode (test, allow increase cell buffer size by use 4 or 8bit/pixel mode, but not need for now)
main.c little change wait execute shell command in sweep thread
(For faster screen update on marker move, all old area update info invalidate after use draw_all_cells(TRUE) on page switch)
Force redraw all cells after end marker move
#define FREQ_MODE_START_STOP 0x0
#define FREQ_MODE_CENTER_SPAN 0x1
Now sweep mode not defined from frequency0 > frequency1 or frequency0 < frequency1
frequency0 always < frequency1
All freq must get by use get_sweep_frequency(mode)
Revert Select CH0 reflect channel before set freq, add additional delay on 0 sweep point
Start/stop generation feature (unstable on segment scan from CPU)
Calibration on paused sweep (need more stack, need find better solution)
Variable use optimization
Cleanup and optimize code
Add comments, fix definitions
Fix rounding errors
Fix band 1 stability
mcuconf.h
Set I2C bus clock to SYSCLK (more fast)
Apply 400kHz bus I2C clock timings for 8MHz and 48Mhz clock
main.c
Remove and reset some variables
Add separate sweep for calibration (allow calibrate if sweep paused)
Increase main thread stack (need for run calibrate, possibly need execute some commands in sweep threads for reduce stack usage)
Improve sweep speed about 60%
Stop generation on pause sweep
Remove all hack for si5351
Reduce code size
Fix integer overflow on big freq values
Additional
Change I2C
Others:
move marker_tracking variable to ui config
move some definition to correct place
reduce tlv320aic3204 code size
Speedup marker move from lever (BUTTON_REPEAT_TICKS = 625)
Need test stability
Decrease sweep thread stack size from 640 to 512 (also stack usage code optimization give good result)
Little change 16x22 font
ui.c
Use definition for some hard coded values
Fix button "Correction" not reset after use "reset"
Define menu button and input num size
#define MENU_BUTTON_WIDTH 60
#define MENU_BUTTON_HEIGHT 30
#define NUM_INPUT_HEIGHT 30
Reduce button height from 32 to 30 pixels (fix in stimulus menu "<back" button overwrite by input num field)
Little code change
Write simple profiling definitions
START_PROFILE
STOP_PROFILE
Use it for detect sys tick amount and output to screen
main.c
Reduce VNA_SHELL_MAX_LENGTH to 48, and made shell_line as static (reduce stack usage)
Remove BaseSequentialStream *chp from command calls (use static shell_stream), it reduce code size and stack usage
Use VNA_SHELL_FUNCTION definition for all commands
Remove chMtxLock(&mutex);chMtxUnlock(&mutex); from commands, and define command flag for use it in calls
Apply default scale from trace_info on trace change
Led blink outside from main sweep cycle (better look, and less noise)
Some size fixes
chprintf.c
Implement small memory stream object, only put function and plot_printf(char *str, int size, const char *fmt, ...)
Use it in all code (little increase speed, and huge decrease size)
Restore USE_EXCEPTIONS_STACKSIZE = 0x180 (possible not need, but not good tested)
plot.c
Made huge screen render profile (add some comments)
Not use cell clipping on draw cell data (use constants increase speed, decrease stack usage (not need put it to stack))
Clip cell if need only on screen flush
Use new plot_printf, remove chsnprintf usage
Apply code style
============================================================================================================
Interesting fact
Usage memset(spi_buffer, DEFAULT_BG_COLOR, (h*CELLWIDTH)*sizeof(uint16_t)); dramatically decrease render speed
possibly it fill buffer by 8 bit data, so slow
Usage
uint32_t *p = (uint32_t *)spi_buffer;
while (count--) {
p[0] = DEFAULT_BG_COLOR|(DEFAULT_BG_COLOR<<16);
p[1] = DEFAULT_BG_COLOR|(DEFAULT_BG_COLOR<<16);
p[2] = DEFAULT_BG_COLOR|(DEFAULT_BG_COLOR<<16);
p[3] = DEFAULT_BG_COLOR|(DEFAULT_BG_COLOR<<16);
p+=4;
}
gives x10 speed perfomance
Draw polar and smit grid very slow (but i don`t know how increase it except use bitmaps, but it need about 5-8k flash size and file prepare)
On long lines render slow down, but clipping use more calculation, and not give good result
Need made stack usage check
Decrease interrupt stack size
Use __ROR instruction in flash.c for checksum rotate
Fix erase background for frequencies string in plot.c
Implement getStringIndex function for parse string arguments, now Usage show correct information about used arg, and more easy use strings definitions
Example:
Need check if string "on" in avaible arguments list "load|open|short|thru|isoln|done|on|off|reset|data|in"
getStringIndex("on", "load|open|short|thru|isoln|done|on|off|reset|data|in") return 6
If not found return -1
Not need use if (strcmp() == ...) else ....
This usage save some amount of size
