PWM OMG |

PIC16F877A
4.128 no IDE
20Mhz Clock
Turned to CCS again since my ASM code went sideways, after days of coding and close to 1000 line realized my approach is somewhat incorrect, just to blow some steam fired up CCS to play with it.
Now I been playing with C and C# for a few years but isn't my strongest tool, so don't byte my head off.
Below a simple code to Blink a LED on PortD and run PWM on CCP1 at 78.125Khz 25% duty.
Its not working ! LED blink about 2,3x than stops, PWM continue to run, went back to MC asm and create sample project with same values, I'm not including here the full asm just my timer and CCP setup, technically the rest of the asm is plain port setup and delay routine.
Why is this C code will stop executing the while(true) part after 1-2sec later !?
Maybe I'm just to stressed out and can't see the tree from the forest.
Code: | #include <main.h>
#define LED PIN_D0
void main()
{
setup_ccp1(CCP_PWM);
set_pwm1_duty((int16)63);
setup_timer_2(T2_DIV_BY_1,63,1); //12.8 us overflow, 12.8 us interrupt
while(true)
{
output_toggle(LED);
delay_ms(250);
}
}
//INIT_PWM
// BANKSEL PR2
// MOVLW 0X3F // PWM period 78.125khz
// MOVWF PR2
// MOVLW B'00000100' // Setup Timer2
// //0 // Unimplemented
// //-0000 // 1:1 postscale
// //-----1 // TMR2ON
// //------00 // Prescaler is 1
// MOVWF T2CON
// BANKSEL CCPR1L
// MOVLW B'00000111' // Load 25% Duty 255/100*25=63.xx
// MOVWF CCPR1L // MSB loaded to CCPR1L
// BANKSEL CCP1CON // LSB loaded to CCP1CON 5:4 bit
// MOVLW B'00111100'
// //00 // Unimplemented
// //--11 // LSB of Duty
// //----11xx // PWM mode
// MOVWF CCP1CON
// BSF T2CON, TMR2ON // Timer2 ON
// RETURN | ![Question](images/smiles/icon_question.gif) _________________ I'm could be wrong many time's, at least I know what I'm doing ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

The first thing that comes to mind when you say it works a few times then quits is are there any interrupts running etc (you indicate this is only part of the code) ? When I have run into something like this in the past it was due to "clever" use of the stack where I was pushing something on it then forgetting to get it back and managing to crash the stack. Maybe after I have my coffee something will become more obvious to me, but that was the first thing that came to mind. (This does have the feel of one of those "duh" moments when you solve it though -- I have them on a regular basis myself ) _________________ mikey

Always post the complete test program. Post the code in main.h.
You could have the LVP fuse set. Then that pin might float to a high level
and the PIC would go into LVP programming mode and lock up.
Or maybe you're missing the MCLR pull-up resistor, so that pin floats low
and locks up the PIC.
Or maybe you left off the series resistor on the LED and then the PIC's
pin driver circuit (or the whole PIC) has a problem.
I don't know. You didn't give enough information. |

this is beyond me...
This is the generated asm from the c code, it will compile and has the same result, led will stop flashing after 2,3 flash later.
It does not use any call so the stock stays at 0 level.
In the debugger if found that the line XORWF 0x8, F will not toggle the portd pin0, the W have value of 1 and bank switched back to 0, but it will toggle other registers if I change it to

MCLR is pulled up with 6.8k "thats what I pulled out from the box first !, It works with the ASM code just fine.

ok found the problem and now it is working, wasn't a compile or code problem, it was working as it should be.
The problem was that I connected the led to the PORTD pin0 wo any resistor, the code simply was trying to XOR the state of the pin, doing this by reading the pin and could not read as high since was loaded by the LED.
Adding a 470ohm fixed the problem, on port B or C it wouldn't be a problem, that was a interesting experiment tho.. _________________ I'm could be wrong many time's, at least I know what I'm doing ![Smile](images/smiles/icon_smile.gif) |

You should always use a series resistor with an LED. It's standard
engineering design practice. It limits the current to be within the
specified range, so as not to exceed the limits for the LED or the
pin driver on the PIC. |

There was no design in place, this has nothing to do with the project I'm working on, LED was added for debugging purpose only and wasn't thinking on the portD architecture. When I noticed that the port not toggling than I start a new project to investigate why.
Thanks anyway.
