6.8 Infrared Remote Control Application/PWM Waveform Generation

6.8.1 Overview

This LSI can easily output infrared carrier or PWM standard waveform. As illustrated

below, the IR and PWM waveform generation function include an 8-bit down count

timer/counter, high time, low time, and IR control register. The IROUT pin waveform is

determined by IOCA0 (IR and TCCC scale control register), IOCB1 (high time rate, low

time rate control register), IOC81 (TCCC counter), IOCA1 (high time register), and

IOC91 (low time register).

NOTE
Details of the Fcarrier high time width and low time width are explained below:
Fcarrier = FT/ 2 { [1+decimal TCCC Counter value (IOC81)] * TCCC
Scale (IOCA0) }
High time width = { [1+decimal high time value (IOCA1)] * High time Scale
(IOCB1) } / FT
Low time width = { [1+decimal low time value (IOC91)] * Low time Scale
(IOCB1) } / FT
Where FT is the system clock FT=Fosc/1 (CLK=2)
FT=Fosc/2 (CLK=4)
