38 / 71 page ![]() HT46R01B-1/HT46R01N-1 HT48R01B-1/HT48R01N-1 Rev.1.00 38 June 9, 2011 PFD Function The Programmable Frequency Divider provides a means of producing a variable frequency output suitable for applications, such as piezo-buzzer driving or other interfaces requiring a precise frequency generator. The Timer/Event Counter overflow signal is the clock source for the PFD function, which is controlled by PFDCS bit in CTRL0. For applicable devices the clock source can come from either Timer/Event Counter 0 or Timer/Event Counter 1. The output frequency is con- trolled by loading the required values into the timer prescaler and timer registers to give the required division ratio. The counter will begin to count-up from this preload register value until full, at which point an overflow signal is generated, causing both the PFD outputs to change state. The counter will then be automatically reloaded with the preload register value and continue counting-up. If the CTRL0 register has selected the PFD function, then for PFD output to operate, it is essential for the cor- responding Port control register, to setup the PFD pins as outputs. The corresponding I/O pin data bit must be set high to activate the PFD. The output data bits can be used as the on/off control bit for the PFD outputs. Note that the PFD outputs will all be low if the output data bit is cleared to zero. Using this method of frequency generation, and if a crystal oscillator is used for the system clock, very pre- cise values of frequency can be generated. I/O Interfacing The Timer/Event Counter, when configured to run in the event counter or pulse width capture mode, requires the use of an external timer pin for its operation. As this pin is a shared pin it must be configured correctly to ensure that it is setup for use as a Timer/Event Counter input pin. This is achieved by ensuring that the mode select bits in the Timer/Event Counter control register, select either the event counter or pulse width capture mode. Additionally the corresponding Port Control Register bit must be set high to ensure that the pin is setup as an input. Any pull-high resistor connected to this pin will remain valid even if the pin is used as a Timer/Event Counter input. Programming Considerations When configured to run in the timer mode, the internal system clock is used as the timer clock source and is therefore synchronised with the overall operation of the microcontroller. In this mode when the appropriate timer register is full, the microcontroller will generate an internal interrupt signal directing the program flow to the respec- tive internal interrupt vector. For the pulse width capture mode, the internal system clock is also used as the timer clock source but the timer will only run when the correct logic condition appears on the external timer input pin. As this is an external event and not synchronised with the in- ternal timer clock, the microcontroller will only see this ex- ternal event when the next timer clock pulse arrives. As a result, there may be small differences in measured val- ues requiring programmers to take this into account dur- ing programming. The same applies if the timer is configured to be in the event counting mode, which again is an external event and not synchronised with the inter- nal system or timer clock. When the Timer/Event Counter is read, or if data is writ- ten to the preload register, the clock is inhibited to avoid errors, however as this may result in a counting error, this should be taken into account by the programmer. Care must be taken to ensure that the timers are properly in- itialised before using them for the first time. The associ- ated timer enable bits in the interrupt control register must be properly set otherwise the internal interrupt associated with the timer will remain inactive. The edge select, timer mode and clock source control bits in timer control regis- ter must also be correctly set to ensure the timer is prop- erly configured for the required application. It is also important to ensure that an initial value is first loaded into the timer registers before the timer is switched on; this is because after power-on the initial values of the timer reg- isters are unknown. After the timer has been initialised the timer can be turned on and off by controlling the en- able bit in the timer control register.
