Summation/Shifter

In addition to the previous sample code, a sample driving code for the debugging is included below. This is a special feature of the ∝Vision2 Simulator system that allows you to send input voltage values to the editable analog text fields in the ADC peripheral module. In the case of this example, the AIN0 input channel is selected. These input values are automatically written to the text window within a preprogrammed time interval, which is determined by the argument of the pre- defined function twatch (ulong states, where states is the unsigned long value of the number of CPU clock states that must elapse before the next statement in the program is executed). While this function is being executed, the debug sys- tem is placed in an idle state, and the target program continues executing. Upon expiration of this timer period (number of CPU clock states), the debugging pro- cess continues at the next statement. For all intents and purposes, the target pro- cess is oblivious to the execution or the state of the debugging program.

The debugging program is declared as one with a return value of type SIGNAL. The debugging variable AIN0 is assigned an initial value of 0.5V. This will be subsequently incremented by an incremental value of 0.01V. After the AIN0 value has been initialized, a delay of 196 000 CPU clock samples is imposed, while the main program, which started at the same time as this debug program, is performing its parameter initialization and book keeping until it is ready for the next data to be sampled. Within the For Loop, another 900 CPU clock delay is imposed, then the value of AIN0 is incremented by 0.01. It then processes another 130 100 CPU clock delay. This is repeated until the For Loop count expires. In the meantime, the AIN0 text window in the ADC peripheral is incre- mentally updated, and its value is periodically sampled, converted, averaged and displayed from within the main program.

Please refer to the ∝Vision2 Debug Functions chapter in the Keil’s Getting Started and Creative Programming document for more information on writing, compiling and running script files.
