PWM Frequency
PostPosted: Thu Aug 04, 2005 7:23 am     Reply with quote

Please can someone help me with this code? From my calculations for period and duty cycle, I expect results to be frequency of 15khz and 50% duty cycle.

Code:

#include <18F6722.h>

#use delay(clock=8000000)
#fuses INTRC_IO,NOLVP,NOWDT,PUT

void main(void)
{

setup_ccp2(CCP_PWM);   
setup_timer_2(T2_DIV_BY_1, 132, 1);
set_pwm2_duty(267);   
while(true);
}

Yes.
So what are you seeing?...
I'd suggest adding the 'setup_oscillator(OSC_8MHZ)' line to the code. Some versions of the compiler correctly handle doing this automatically, but others don't, and if this was wrong, the output frequency would also be wrong.
Frequency shoul be fractionally over 15Khz, and the duty cycle, just a little over 50%. The 50% value would be 266 ((132+1)*2). I'd also be 'explicit' here, and make sure this value is a 'Long' (add an 'L' to the definition), since while it shoul work fine with 267, if the value was under 255, the compiler will switch to multiplying the value by 4, as it'll then be seen as an 8bit vaue, rather than a 16bit value.
