frequency capture

im trying to capture frequency from 0 to 100khz optical encoder . and here is my code doesn't seem to work. any help please im new to micro controller. im using stm32f100rb

&sharpinclude ''stm32f10x.h''

&sharpinclude ''stm32f10x_tim.h''

&sharpinclude ''stm32f10x_rcc.h''

&sharpinclude ''stm32f10x_gpio.h''

what im trying to do is count the rpm (Speed) of the motor to give out pwm to control the motor. working on this for a month and half without any thing .. if any have a code or can do sthing hlp plz

Yeah, 45 days does seem a tad excessive, I'd probably use Input Capture mode and do a delta measurement between two edges against a fast time base. This would allow you to measure the period of one cycle, and thus the instantaneous frequency. 200 KHz a bit on the high side, for interrupting a CPU running at 24 MHz.

You'd probably also want a 32-bit timer, depends on how close to DC you want to measure, or how large a prescaler you can tolerate on a 16-bit counter. The F100 might be a problem in this regard.

The other alternative is to count external pulses, and integrate over time, or gate/sample with a secondary timer. Would need to check quicker than 333ms to stay withing 16-bit and have 200KHz to DC range.

hi clive1

thanx for replaying i really dont understand alot of things take easy with me plz :) i have been reading alot specially in this side i almost red all your posts . delta measurement ?? but how can i implement this things how do i do it this my problem and can;t find any one to help me. i have another code for you for encoder interface (can i use this code to measure period or frequency?? here is the code

// STM32 TIM3 Encoder Decoder (PC.06:A PC.07:B) VLDiscovery - sourcer32@gmail.com
#include ''stm32F10x.h''
#include ''STM32vldiscovery.h''

// clock for TIM3
RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM3, ENABLE);
}

GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_6 | GPIO_Pin_7;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_IN_FLOATING;
GPIO_Init(GPIOC, &GPIO_InitStructure);
GPIO_PinRemapConfig( GPIO_FullRemap_TIM3, ENABLE ); // Map TIM3 to GPIOC
}
/**************************************************************************************/

TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_ClockDivision = TIM_CKD_DIV1;
TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_CounterMode = TIM_CounterMode_Up;
TIM_TimeBaseInit(TIM3, &TIM_TimeBaseStructure);
// TIM_EncoderMode_TI1: Counter counts on TI1FP1 edge depending on TI2FP2 level.
TIM_EncoderInterfaceConfig(TIM3, TIM_EncoderMode_TI1, TIM_ICPolarity_Rising, TIM_ICPolarity_Rising);
TIM_Cmd(TIM3, ENABLE);
}
/**************************************************************************************/
int main(void)
{
RCC_Configuration();
GPIO_Configuration();
TIM3_Configuration();
// TIM3->CNT contains current position
 
 capture = TIM_GetCounter (TIM3) ;
while(1); // Do not exit
}

A delta measurement, ie a difference

So if you have an encoder setup up you could sample the value periodically, say every 1 ms, if the shaft is generating a 200 KHz signal this would appear as a delta measurement of 200 ticks up or down of the counter since the last measurement, 2000 for a 10 ms sampling. You could store that measurement in an array, and average 100 or 1000 samples.

You should perhaps be seeking help from your colleagues, teachers, or whatever.

i did he always buzy.  this my final project have no collegee.  can you show the part for measuring ?

You'll want to look at the SysTick examples in the firmware library.

Set up a 1 ms SysTick, and then in the SysTick_Handler() read the TIM3->CNT and compare the current value with the prior value.
