KL0x - Timer PWM Interrupt

[AndreVB]

Hello

Platform: KL02 dev board, MCUXpresso SDK

Problem: I´m trying to generate a sequence of 4kHz burst pulses using the timer in PWM mode. The IO outputs 4kHz a clock for 100ms. Next 100ms is off. Next 100ms is on. The idea is to drive a buzzer (beep...silence...beep...silence...beep...silence)

I´m able to generate the 4KHz clock out of the pin using TMP1 (PTA12 | TMP1_CH0). I could use the LPTMR or the TMP0 to turn on/off TMP1 at every 100ms, but they are already assigned to other tasks.

I was wondering if I could use the TMP1 interrupt handler to change the state of tpmParam.level (from kTPM_HighTrue to kTPM_NoPwmSignal) at every 100ms. So I was asuming the timer in PWM mode would behave like a periodic timer overflow, therefore after a X-number of the clocks the interrupt handler is reached where the timer parameter (e.g. tpmParam.level) could be changed.

In my code I wa trying to toggle the led that would represent the PWM output ON and OFF.

First question: is that feasable? If so could you please take a look at my code and suggest a change?

Thank you!

Hi

It works, as well as using TMP0/LPTMR to turn on/off TMP1 (in PWM mode). But what I was trying to do is to avoid using another time to perform the task. 

In summary: how to create a X-kHz burst pulses using a single PWM timer channel. Maybe it can´t be done, I would like to confirm that.

Thank you,

Hi,

You can still use the TPM0. For example , one task is 100ms.  task2 is 200ms.

You can set TPM0 generate interrupt at 100ms. And define a global variable like 'interruptCount'. Use it for judge if the task2 need to be run.  When you go to the interrupt the 'interruptCount' will be added. The task1 will run. When the 'interruptCount' is 2, the judgement is active, the task 2 will also run. And clear the 'interruptCount '

If the task2 time is smaller than the task, you can also do this.

Have a great day,
TIC
