Hello Sjo ,

How you got this number , is this is the right formula :

output max. around 23.4 kHz. =24MHz/(2*2*256)

Latino,

Max Pwm = (24000000/2)/(0+1) = 12MHz

as per datasheet.

Hello

Can you find me the max freq I generate from one of the

PWM ports (I'm using 24Mhz Crystal for the uPSD3234).

Thanks ahead

Thanks

Sorry,

Didn't put all the information.

The formula above calculates the input frequency to the pwm unit.

which for 12MHz is 6MHz = fOSC / 2 / (prescaler data value + 1)

from this we can calculate fPWM8 which is our output pwm.

fPWM8 = (fOSC / prescaler0) / (2 x 256)

we cannot use 0 or 0xFF as these will give us a permanent high or low.

the actual maximum frequency is obtained from a prescaler0 of 1

so maximum frequency is 23437.5Hz for 12MHz clock.
