PWM input with a signal that can get stuck high or low

Andrei Chichak

Posted on February 24, 2015 at 00:11

I'm using TIM1 channels 1 and 2 to resolve a PWM input. So far I have been able to get the frequency to a deci-hertz and the duty cycle to a deci-percent.

Since the input signal can, legitimately, go high or low and stay there, I will get no more interrupts to unload the timer and update the calculations.

The timer should count to 0xFFFF (counter period), but can I get it to generate an interrupt at that point so I can see where the PWM input is stuck?

Thanks.

Isn't that the Update interrupt? (STM32F4 -> TIM1_UP_TIM10_IRQHandler)

For some other timeout number, use Channel 3 or 4 with compare values?

Nothing yet.

What I did is set up the CC and UP interrupts, the CC system works nicely. I set the Timer1 period to 0xFFFF, expecting that when the timer1 CNT register increments (clocked by APB2/1000 == 84MHz/1000) and reaches 0xFFFF (countup), I would get the update interrupt as the counter reloads - but Noooooo. Code follows. (The following is my best understanding of how the PWM input resolving system works) For those not playing along, timer1 is being incremented by a fraction of the system clock. An external signal on TIM1_CH1 causes the capture 1 register to grab a snapshot of CNT on a high going transition. The timer setup also routes TIM1_CH1 to channel 2 which grabs a snapshot of CNT on a low going transition. In the system that I am working with, the PWM can range from 0 to 100% inclusive. Now, when TIM1_CH1 does not make any transitions (stuck high or low because of the nature of the equipment), channel 1 and channel 2 will not grab the value of the CNT register, nor will it cause CNT to clear, it will just keep counting. Eventually CNT will hit 0xFFFF and SHOULD cause a UP interrupt. As you can see from my interrupt routine entry routine

TIM1_UP_TIM10_IRQHandler

I have put in code to toggle a bit when the routine is entered (yes I have tested the toggle bit stuff). I get no indication of the interrupt triggering. Bother. Clive, thanks for your help. You should get paid by ST.

Hello Andrei

just a comment, Did you enable the UPDATE IT by using either : __HAL_TIM_ENABLE_IT(&htim1, TIM_IT_UPDATE); or HAL_TIM_Base_Start_IT(&htim1); on top of the input capture start function ( to get the pwm input capture started with CC interrupt enabled) HAL_TIM_IC_Start_IT (&htim1,TIM_CHANNEL_1); regards

Yes, well spotted, I forgot to list this bit: 


if (HAL_TIM_IC_Start_IT(&htim1, TIM_CHANNEL_2) != HAL_OK) {

/* Starting Error */

error();

}


/*##-5- Start the Input Capture in interrupt mode ##########################*/

if (HAL_TIM_IC_Start_IT(&htim1, TIM_CHANNEL_1) != HAL_OK) {

/* Starting Error */

error();

}

Thanks Stark,

This was the solution:

__HAL_TIM_ENABLE_IT(&htim1, TIM_IT_UPDATE);

The HAL start routine for IT enables the CC interrupt, but not the UP.

Thanks again.
