I am trying to configure the RTC using for date & time purpose. But the following RTC configuration is not working,when i debug the code it is hanging at R TC.RTCCNT.B.RTCCNT .How to use RTC is timer counter for date & time.

SPCSetPeripheralClockMode(91,

SPC5_ME_PCTL_RUN(1) | SPC5_ME_PCTL_LP(1));

/*configure RTC module as autonomous periodic interrupt

to generate internal wakeup event*/

RTC.RTCC.B.CNTEN =0 ; //counter reset and stop

RTC.RTCSUPV.B.SUPV =0 ; //counter reset and stop

RTC.RTCC.B.CLKSEL = 0x01 ; //set SIRC as source clock for API

RTC.RTCC.B.DIV32EN= 0; //Divide clock for 32 is not used

RTC.RTCC.B.DIV512EN = 1; //divide clock for 512

RTC.RTCC.B.APIVAL = 512/4; //set API timer to 2 Seconds

RTC.RTCCNT.B.RTCCNT =5678327;

RTC.RTCS.R=0xFFFFFFFF;

RTC.RTCC.B.CNTEN =1 ; //counter reset and stop

#spc56 #rtc #!colorado

Hi,

debug is hanging when writing RTCCNT because this is a Read Only Register.

A sample code for RTC could be the following:

SPCSetPeripheralClockMode(91,

SPC5_ME_PCTL_RUN(1) | SPC5_ME_PCTL_LP(1));

/*configure RTC module */

RTC.RTCC.B.CNTEN =0 ; //counter reset and stop

RTC.RTCSUPV.B.SUPV =0 ; //counter reset and stop

RTC.RTCC.B.CLKSEL = 0x01 ; //set SIRC (128KHZ) as source clock for RTC

RTC.RTCC.B.DIV32EN= 0; //Divide clock for 32 is not used

RTC.RTCC.B.DIV512EN = 1; //divide clock for 512

RTC.RTCC.B.CNTEN =1 ; //counter reset and stop

after the last command, RTC starts from 0 with a frequency of (128khz / 512) = 250Hz

that means counter will be incremented by 1 each 4 milliseconds

We need RTC for calender purpose,is it possible to configure the RTC with real date & Time

Hi,

a solution could be the following:

set the RCT with SIRC as source and 32 divider on. counter will increse then each 1ms.

The 32bit RTC counter register will give you an autonomy of about 1 month and half.

If you need more , you can set an RTC interrupt each second and increment a 32bit variable each time (about 136 years of time).
