Using rosserial with AVR and USB
Description: This tutorial will show you how to run rosserial on an AVR that supports USB.Keywords: rosserial, rosserial_client, AVR, embedded, microcontroller, USB, LUFA
Tutorial Level: INTERMEDIATE
Contents
Source Code
You can download the full source code for this tutorial here: https://github.com/mrjogo/rosserial_avr_tutorial/tree/lufa
Prerequisites
This tutorial will build directly on the code from Using rosserial with AVR and UART. However, you will not need the avr_uart module, and we will replace Atmega32u4Hardware.h and the Makefile. You can delete the unnecessary files with the following command:
roscd rosserial_avr_tutorial && rm avr_uart.h avr_uart.c Atmega32u4Hardware.h Makefile
This tutorial also uses the Atmega32u4, but instead of the UART, we are now going to use the built-in USB support (you can use other AVR chips that support USB by changing the data registers and the Makefile). The tutorial was built using the Adafruit Atmega32u4 Breakout Board, but if you want to build your own breakout circuitry, Adafruit has posted the schematics.
Adding USB Support
Getting LUFA
The Lightweight USB Framework for AVRs (LUFA) is a library that makes it easier to use the AVR's USB capabilities. It is released under the MIT License, and you can download it from http://code.google.com/p/lufa-lib/downloads/list. Unzip the archive and put the LUFA subdirectory in rosserial_avr_tutorial/src.
Setting the USB Descriptors
USB is more complex than UART, and the computer needs to know some information about our AVR. This is acomplished through Descriptors. We will adapt the Descriptors files from the VirtualSerial LUFA demo:

There's too much here to go over everything (check out the LUFA documentation if you want to learn more), but there are a few parts you might need to change:
.VendorID = 0x03EB, .ProductID = 0x2044,
The USB vendor and product ID. Vendor IDs are globally unique and assigned (for a price) by the USB-IF. The vendor can then assign a product ID to each USB products. The IDs used here are for the LUFA CDC demo (under the Atmel vendor ID), so make sure to change them if you intend to distribute your product.
.UnicodeString = L"ROS AVR Tutorial"
.UnicodeString = L"AVR rosserial_client"
These are the manufacturer and product string that will appear when the Atmega32u4 is connected to a PC.
Implementing rosserial_client
Defining the Hardware Interface
As in the previous tutorial, we have to implement the hardware class.
Atmega32u4Hardware.h
#ifndef _ATMEGA32U4_HARDWARE_H #define _ATMEGA32U4_HARDWARE_H extern "C" { #include "Descriptors.h" #include "avr_time.h" #include <LUFA/Drivers/USB/USB.h> } class Atmega32u4Hardware { public: Atmega32u4Hardware() {} void init() { avr_time_init(); USB_Init(); sei(); } int read() { return CDC_Device_ReceiveByte(&VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface); } void write(uint8_t* data, int length) { CDC_Device_SendData(&VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface, (char *)data, (uint16_t)length); } unsigned long time() { return avr_time_now(); } static USB_ClassInfo_CDC_Device_t VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface; }; void EVENT_USB_Device_ConfigurationChanged(void); void EVENT_USB_Device_ControlRequest(void); #endif
Let's look at what has changed:
void init() { avr_time_init(); USB_Init(); sei(); }
The init method now calls LUFA's USB initialization function instaed of our UART initialization function.
int read() { return CDC_Device_ReceiveByte(&VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface); }
CDC_Device_ReceiveByte is a LUFA function that returns a byte from the host on the specified interface, or a negative number if no byte is available.
void write(uint8_t* data, int length) { CDC_Device_SendData(&VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface, (char *)data, (uint16_t)length); }
CDC_Device_SendData is a LUFA function that sends a buffer of data to the host on the specified USB interface.
static USB_ClassInfo_CDC_Device_t VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface;
This is the USB virtual serial interface that we are going to do all of our communications over.
void EVENT_USB_Device_ConfigurationChanged(void); void EVENT_USB_Device_ControlRequest(void);
These are event handlers for USB state changes that need to be implemented for LUFA to function properly. Both of the functions and VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface are defined in Atmega32u4Hardware.cpp:
Atmega32u4Hardware.cpp
#include "Atmega32u4Hardware.h" USB_ClassInfo_CDC_Device_t Atmega32u4Hardware::VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface = { { 0, CDC_TX_EPNUM, CDC_TXRX_EPSIZE, false, CDC_RX_EPNUM, CDC_TXRX_EPSIZE, false, CDC_NOTIFICATION_EPNUM, CDC_NOTIFICATION_EPSIZE, false, }, }; /** Event handler for the library USB Configuration Changed event. */ void EVENT_USB_Device_ConfigurationChanged(void) { CDC_Device_ConfigureEndpoints(&Atmega32u4Hardware::VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface); } /** Event handler for the library USB Control Request reception event. */ void EVENT_USB_Device_ControlRequest(void) { CDC_Device_ProcessControlRequest(&Atmega32u4Hardware::VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface); }
Modifying avr_chatter.cpp
We have to make a small modification to avr_chatter.cpp in order for it to work with LUFA. In order for the USB to stay active, the following two LUFA functions must be called often (ie, in every iteration of the main while loop):
CDC_Device_USBTask(&Atmega32u4Hardware::VirtualSerial1_CDC_Interface); USB_USBTask();
Add those functions after the call to nh.spinOnce() so that the code now looks like this (note also the new #include's at the top):
#include "ros.h" #include "std_msgs/String.h" #include "Atmega32u4Hardware.h" // Include C headers (ie, non C++ headers) in this block extern "C" { #include <util/delay.h> #include <LUFA/Drivers/USB/USB.h> } // Needed for AVR to use virtual functions extern "C" void __cxa_pure_virtual(void); void __cxa_pure_virtual(void) {} ros::NodeHandle nh; std_msgs::String str_msg; ros::Publisher chatter("chatter", &str_msg); char hello[13] = "hello world!"; int main() { uint32_t lasttime = 0UL; // Initialize ROS nh.initNode(); nh.advertise(chatter); while(1) { // Send the message every second if(avr_time_now() - lasttime > 1000) { str_msg.data = hello; chatter.publish(&str_msg); lasttime = avr_time_now(); } nh.spinOnce(); // LUFA functions that need to be called frequently to keep USB alive CDC_Device_USBTask(&Atmega32u4Hardware::VirtualSerial_CDC_Interface); USB_USBTask(); } return 0; }
Makefile
The Makefile for this tutorial is adapted from the one used in the LUFA demos. It is very similar to the one in the previous tutorial (both are ultimately based on the WinAVR template), but ensures that the LUFA library builds properly.

Let's look some of the new variables you might need to understand:
# Target architecture (see library "Board Types" documentation). ARCH = AVR8
The AVR architecture (we are using an 8-bit AVR).
# Target board (see library "Board Types" documentation, NONE for projects not requiring # LUFA board drivers). If USER is selected, put custom board drivers in a directory called # "Board" inside the application directory. BOARD = NONE
LUFA has some drivers (button, LED, etc) that use this variable to determine which breakout board is being used. Since our code doesn't use any of those drivers, leave it set to NONE.
# Input clock frequency. # This will define a symbol, F_USB, in all source code files equal to the # input clock frequency (before any prescaling is performed) in Hz. This value may # differ from F_CPU if prescaling is used on the latter, and is required as the # raw input clock is fed directly to the PLL sections of the AVR for high speed # clock generation for the USB and other AVR subsections. Do NOT tack on a 'UL' # at the end, this will be done automatically to create a 32-bit value in your # source code. # # If no clock division is performed on the input clock inside the AVR (via the # CPU clock adjust registers or the clock division fuses), this will be equal to F_CPU. F_USB = $(F_CPU)
The frequency of the clock used by LUFA for USB communications. Change this if it is different than the microcontroller processor speed.
# Path to the LUFA library LUFA_PATH = .
The path to the directory that contains the LUFA library.
For any other options you may need to change, please see the previous tutorial's Makefile section
Building
To build the firmware, go into your package directory and run:
make make program
Testing
To test the code, plug the Atmega32u4 into the PC's USB port. In a terminal window launch roscore:
roscore
Next, start the rosserial client (replace /dev/ttyACM0 with the USB port your AVR is connected to):
rosrun rosserial_python serial_node.py /dev/ttyACM0
And watch the incoming messages:
rostopic echo chatter
