pwm on 16F877A, how to change the duty cycle
PostPosted: Sat Mar 11, 2006 8:59 pm     Reply with quote

HI
I am trying to use the PWMs to run 2 separate motors. I am using CCP1 and CCP2.I find many posts about pwm,I know how to generate Pwm,but I don't know how to change the the duty cycle automatically,when the voltage of PIN_C(PIN_C4,PIN_C5....) become high, decrease the duty cycle,when voltage become low the duty cycle become normal again.In a word,I want to know how to control duty cycle(speed of motors).

I am doing my graduation project, waiting for your reply in Shanghai.

Thank you !!

#include <16F877A.h>

#use delay(clock = 4000000)

main()
{
int16 duty_cycle1=100;
int16 duty_cycle2=200;

output_low(PIN_C1); // Set CCP2 output low
output_low(PIN_C2); // Set CCP1 output low

setup_ccp1(CCP_PWM); // Configure CCP1 as a PWM
setup_ccp2(CCP_PWM); // Configure CCP2 as a PWM

setup_timer_2(T2_DIV_BY_16, 255, 1);
set_pwm1_duty(duty_cycle1);
set_pwm2_duty(duty_cycle2);
while(1);
}



How to change duty_cycle1 and duty_cycle2?

The code come from
http://www.ccsinfo.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17729&highlight=pwm

That thread contains newbie code which has some problems, but it
also contains "pro" code which doesn't have those problems.
You should not use newbie code as your example. You should use
the other code.

Thank you, PCM programmer. I correct it. Can you give some suggestion?

CCS has an example file called EX_PWM.C. In that file, they
show to use the A/D converter with a trimpot to change the PWM
duty cycle. As you turn the trimpot knob in one direction, the duty
cycle is increased, and as you turn it in the other direction it decreases.
The EX_PWM.C file is in this folder: c:\Program Files\Picc\Examples

In your question, you imply that you want to check several i/o pins
to determine the motor speed (because you have "...."). Is this really
what you want to do, or is the EX_PWM.C example a better way for you ?

Thanks for your detailed reply. Smile the EX_PWM.C example is a better way for me,that is what I want.Before I logging in the forum,I tried to understand the EX_PWM.c,but I failed,so I want to find simple example to control it.Can you explain it? can you write a simple version?Question

One way to simplify it is to just cut out the options and the RS-232 stuff:
Code:

#include <16F877.h>
#device adc=8
#fuses HS,NOWDT,NOPROTECT,NOLVP
#use delay(clock=10000000)

void main()
{
int8 value;
   
setup_ccp1(CCP_PWM);

setup_timer_2(T2_DIV_BY_4, 127, 1);

setup_port_a(ALL_ANALOG);
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_INTERNAL);
set_adc_channel(0);

while(1)
  {
   value = read_adc();

   set_pwm1_duty(value);
  }

}

Hi

PCM programmer, thanks. It works. I can use it in my program.I find so

many post about PWM, after finishing my graduation project, I will write a

post to make a summary or a index, may be it will be easy to check.

谢谢!!
