Sorry for the quickly released new version, but two great AVR Freaks members found some serious, but easy to fix issues, with kavrcalc. Thanks, guys!

Version 1.11 is now available from http://www.b9.com/elect/avr/kavr... . From the ChangeLog:

Version 1.11 (Feb 10, 2008)
        - Fix bug when push enter in "Desired Time" in Timer calculator
        - Fix scaling bug in displaying CTC frequency

Edit: Fix URL -- thanks, Carl!

Just got 1.11. Set 16mhz, switch to timer, set prescale 1, observe 333.333hz in 8 bit pwm and 16 bit pwm windows. (if desired setting is out of range, maybe gray out the invalid result window??)

Possible problem on Windows XP: When I download it (latest version), it gives out this error message box:
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem.

I downloaded it again, but the same problem arrose. I'm using windows XP SP2 on a Pentium 4 machine.

Any remedy?

Time flies when you have a bad prescaler selected.

Thanks for the additional information, Bob. I had reviewed PWM fast, but you are quite right, the PWM Normal is in error (for both the 8 and 16-bit times) and will be fixed in the next release. Thanks very much for the report!

Kevin,

It works all right on Linux. The two problems I have noticed are that the 76.8 kb rate is missing in the baud rate calculator, and I suspect that the 230 000 should be 230 400. (This latter one is only a 0.2% error, so I don't think that anything is going to fail.)
Also, the lay-out of the timer tab is quite nice an convenient now. Keep up the excellent work!
Zoltan

This likely means you don't have some required DLLs on your system. These can be downloaded and installed from Microsoft at http://www.microsoft.com/downloa...

If that doesn't work, can you verify the MD5 hash of your download and extraction for version 1.11?

Thanks for the report and suggestions. The changes will appear in the next release.
