The General Purpose Timer Arrays GPTA0 (
) is split into Clock Generation
Cells (CGC) and a Signal Generation Cells (SGC):
•
The
Clock Generation Cells
) allow a preprocessing of the input
signals using filter, timer, capture, compare and enhanced digital PLL cells:
– The
Filter and Prescaler Cells
(FPC) provide input noise filtering (Immediate
Debounce and Delayed Debounce) and may also work as prescalers for the
GPTA
®
v5 module clock and external signals.
– The
Phase Discrimination Logic
(PDL) may take the outputs of the FPCs to
decode phase encoded signals from a position and rotation direction sensor
system.
– The
Duty Cycle Measurement Cells
(DCM) provide signal measurement
capabilities (timer plus capture register, single and double capture on rising and
falling edges or both) as well as missing pulse detection/reconstruction functions.
– The
Digital Phase Locked Loop
(Digital PLL) generates a clock with higher clock
resolution (harmonic) out of the signal measured by DCM cells. Any arbitrary
multiplication factor between 1 and 65535 is supported and may be changed each
PLL clock period.
– The
Clock Distribution Cells
(CDC) provide all LTCs and GTs with a variety of
different clock signals. It is equipped with GPTA
®
v5 module clock prescalers and
multiplexers supporting alternate clock sources.
The original signals and all outputs of the preprocessing cells are distributed to the
Global Timers and LTCs via the clock bus.
•
The
Signal Generation Cells
(see
) provide a set of timers, capture and
compare cells:
– The two 24-bit
Global Timers
(GT) can be individually configured as free-running
counters or as reload counters starting at a programmable value from 0
H
to
FFFFFF
H
. Each GT is equipped with a scalable greater-or-equal comparator; the
number of bits to be compared is selectable.
– The
Global Timer Cell
registers (GTC) are 24-bit wide. GTCs may be used as
comparators (modifying the logical state of a related output port pin), or as capture
cells, storing the current GT0 or GT1 value on rising, falling or both signal edges
detected on a related input port pin. Several adjacent GTCs may be connected to
logical cells operating on the same pin, allowing complex functions to be
implemented.
– The
Local Timer Cell
registers (LTC) are 16-bit wide. 63 LTCs can be configured
to operate in one of four different modes: free-running or resetable counter,
capture or compare cell. Adjacent cells can be combined to operate on the same
pin, thus generating complex waveforms. One LTC (LTC63) can be used for
special compare modes.
