CHAPTER 9 12-BIT PPG TIMER

9.1Overview of 12-bit PPG Timer

The 12-bit PPG timer is a 12-bit binary counter, enabling the selection of one of four types of internal count clocks. The timer is capable of setting a cycle period and "H" width of output pulse waveforms and can also be used as a remote control transmission frequency generator or 12-bit PPG.

Functions of 12-bit PPG Timer

The timer generates a frequency for remote control and outputs signals to a PPG pin.

The timer is capable of setting a cycle period and "H" width of output pulse waveforms separately.

The timer enables the selection of a count clock from four types of internal clocks.

The timer can generate a frequency in a range from twice to 212-1 times as fast as the counter clock. Table 9.1-1lists the ranges in which the output pulse cycle period and "H" width are variable.

Note:

An example of calculating the output pulse cycle period and "H" width as executed by a 12-bit PPG function is given below.

When an oscillation (FCH) of 12.5 MHz and a count clock cycle period of 2 tINST are set, and if:

Compare value for cycle period = 011110B (30-clock period)

Compare value for "H" width = 001010B (10-clock width)

Then, "H" width and the cycle period of output pulse waveforms are calculated as given below. These calculations are obtained provided the system clock control register (SYCC) selects the fastest clock (CS1, CS0 = 11B with one instruction cycle = 4/FCH).
