TV remote controller 160KHz High Quality Stereo MMC WAV player using ATMEGA32

(updated the complete source code + makefile + hex + asm + .out files on bitbucket repository) 

link is provided below the source code

Introduction:

This is my first AVR based hobby project and the most successful one compared to my all previous stuff. I am 100% satisfied with this work.. Few months ago, I tried to make a wav player using a PIC16F877A. It worked anyway, but the audio quality was not so good for higher sampling rate because that chip doens't have enough ram and thus I couldn't implement a good data buffer. But when I bought an atmega32 microcontroller, the first thing came to my mind is to make a good wav player...Now, I have completed my work and the audio quality is really amazing...

 NOW I can say that, my wav player IS ABLE TO PLAY 8 BIT MONO/STEREO with maximum bitrate of 1300kbps for mono and 1600kbps for stereo ... ie it can play an 8 bit mono wav of sampling frequency upto 160KHz and stereo upto 96KHz  without any noise or trouble!!!!! (at OSC 16.450MHz).

LINUX DEVICE DRIVER FOR A 16x2 LCD MODULE CONNECTED AT PARALLEL PORT

This is a small parallel port char driver for printing text on a 16x2 lcd module connected at parallel port of a PC. I did this as a part of learning linux kernel-module programming. May be this could be considered as a hello world device driver.

INTRODUCTION:

 As we know, everything in Linux is treated as a file, even hardware devices like serial ports, hard disks, and scanners. In order to access these devices, a special file called a device node has to be present. All device nodes are stored in the /dev directory. Here, my 16x2 lcd connected to parallel port is also treated as a file and is accessed via a device node....

    Now, after connecting the 16x2 lcd to parallel port (as in my circuit diagram), and then inserting the driver module, a message "DRIVER INSERTED" is displayed on the 16x2 LCD. Later, if we make a character special file (node) with major number as 61, and if we write any string to it (echo HELLO > file), then it will be displayed on the 16x2 LCD. Now, if we write a long string to it, then it is displayed on the lcd by scrolling it from bottom to top until the string is displayed completely ...
