hi
i wounder wath baud value i should use with a 32mhz xmega usally i do this with bascom avr baud calculator but it does only goes up to 22mhz and i don't now how to do this
manual.

it is in the datasheet, look at page 238 in the manual. There is a table titled "Equations for Calculating Baud Rate Register Setting.

The equation is slightly different than that of the traditional AVR's due to a prescaler being present, before the baud rate divisor.

Writing code is like having sex.... make one little mistake, and you're supporting it for life.

Try this calculator instead.

If bascom don't calculate constant expressions at compile time, then you should chose a programming language, which can do it, e.g. C.

Then simple write down the formula for the baud rate divider and insert your crystal and the wanted baud rate:

#define XTAL 14.756e6
#define BAUD 9600
#define BDIV (uint16_t)(XTAL / BAUD / 16 - 0.5) )

 UBRR0H = BDIV >> 8;
 UBRR0L = BDIV & 0xFF;

I use only ATtiny/ATmega, maybe the formula was different for Xmega.

No need for awkward separate calculator tools.

danni: the formula for the XMEGA is similar, but it has an extra parameter BSCALE.

If you are running at 32MHz, you do not need the BSCALE (at least for normal baud rates)
