Digital filter
The digital filter is provided so that the counter works normally even when the pulse input to the
counter, phase-A/B/Z signal, or control input signal has noise. When the digital filter detects the High
(or Low) level maintained for the digital filter setting time, it outputs “High” (or “Low”) to the counter
circuit. The setting range is set by software to “unused” or 0.1 µsec - 1.6384 msec.
Note that, since all of these digital signals are input to the internal counter through the digital filter, a
delay of the set time is required for them to be input when the digital filter is used.
Initially, the delay owing to the digital filter does not occur as it is not used by default.
Figure 4.18. Digital filter
- The digital filter is initially disabled. (It remains disabled when left untouched.)
- The delay may be longer than the set time depending on the noise included.
- If the level changes at a frequency shorter than the set time, the level change is ignored and the
input is not counted correctly.
Timer
The timer can generate an interrupt at software-set intervals. The setting range is 1 - 6553 msec.
(in 1 ms increments).
* The same applies also to the LOW level.
