Sorry I thought you said you were using an external clock source. ASSR
is only used for and external clock ie not the chips clock. 

Also is is a bad idea to put the printf statement in because it will
actaully take several ms to send all that to the uart

Subject: [AVR-Chat] Re: Atmega16 Real time clock


In atmega16, the real time clock corresponds to timer2.  I put  two
statements inside the overflow function

SIGNAL (SIG_OVERFLOW2)
{
counter0++;
printf("Counter 2 is %lu\n", counter0);
}

and write the code to initialize the real time clock posted here by
wbounce.  However, I find UART no longer function and nothing prints
out.

If I delete the statement ASSR|=_BV(AS2).  The UART functions again.

I do not use JTAG.  I download the hex code to Mega16 via parallel ISP.

Tse To Yap
