PIC18f2331, PWM module
PostPosted: Fri Aug 27, 2010 7:49 am     Reply with quote

Hello,
Am using pic18f2331, and I want to get pwm outputs...but am not so good in pwm, so I want to know some information about the parameters of pwm functions.
Code:

setup_power_pwm(modes, postscale, time_base, period, compare, compare_postscale, dead_time)

What is meant by the time base?
How can I calculate it?
The second thing is in the calculation of the pwm period. In the data sheet there is a parameter called PTMRPS, which I don't know what it is.

The 18F2331 data sheet says what it is:

Quote:
17.3 PWM Time Base
The PWM time base is provided by a 12-bit timer with
prescaler and postscaler functions.

That's the PTMR register in the PIC data sheet.


This post has some example code, and a brief explanation of the
parameters.

The CCS manual also will help, if you download it.
