STC1000 with 78F9224 / 78K0S processor supported? #110

Hi, FOA thanks for this amazing project and all that trigger to enhance the usefulness of this thermostat.

I got one spare thermostat from a project, that seems to be based on Renesas 78F9224 / 78K0S processor, but I couldn't find any reference to it in this or the STM8 sister project.

Does anyone know if this controller is supported by any alt firmware project? Thanks!

Hi! Yes, unfortunately there seems to be a LOT of variations of STC-1000 around and my project only targets the PIC MCU. I am not aware of any 'ports' to the MCU you mentioned (or any other except for Emile's STM8 effort). 78K0S seems pretty proprietary (in that there does not seem to be any free/libre compiler alternatives), but searching around some information can at least be found. It would probably take quite some effort to port to this architecture and it is something that at least I am not willing to undertake. However, if it is something you (or anyone else) is willing to pursue, then feel free to 'borrow' code from STC-1000+ as needed :) Cheers! //mats

Thanks Mats, I searched for info on the processor and found some information, but it wasn't clear if it was somehow compatible with PIC or STM8 architectures. Thx again for your prompt reply!
