Timer1 Overflow
PostPosted: Thu May 18, 2006 4:10 pm     Reply with quote
Hi how can i check for timer 1 overflow?

This is how i did it on a PIC 18F using the microchip 18 compiler:


Code:


if(PIR1bits.TMR1IF) //If timer 1 has overflowed add 65536
  {
   PIR1bits.TMR1IF = 0;
   comp_count += 65536;
  }




IM now trying to do the same on a PIC 16f8777a using the CCS compiler

I realize i can do this by using the timer overflow interrupt but is there a way of directly accesing this varible like above?

Thanks

Pilt

Sure - just use a #bit declaration. You need to look in that PIC's datasheet for the exact location of that flag. I did the same thing for a 18F4680, and this is how I did it:

Code:
#bit tmr1_int_flag = 0xf9e.0


For the 18F4680, it is bit 0 of memory location 0xF9E. The location of the timer 1 interrupt flag will be different for your processor.

Your code would then be like this:

Code:
if(tmr1_int_flag) //If timer 1 has overflowed add 65536
  {
   tmr1_int_flag = 0;
   comp_count += 65536;
  }

This thread gives examples of how to declare TMR1IF as a bit variable:
