Timing scheme

[mackrackit]

Can you post your whole code? I am making a guess the problem is in the variable size some where. Or in the ADC setup. And the routine "INITIALIZE" seems to be missing.

When you post code. the use of code tags helps.

Hi, Glqosec

One good thing to know is what granularity ( resolution ) you need for ONtime and Cycle duration ...

I can suggest the following approch:

Read cycle and ontime word variables
Compare the the two variables and adjust ontime to cycle if ontime is greater then cycle

IF ONTIME>CYCLE THEN ONTIME=CYCLE

If you don't want offtime=0 then you can add the proper offset

IF ONTIME>=CYCLE THEN ONTIME=(CYCLE-OFFSET)

Set high output pin
loop for for the cycle delay and check ontime
when loop reach ontime value set low output pin
continue the loop till you reach the cycle time.

Ontime will be adjustable and always within cycle time

Al.
