CCS/UCD3138: how to calculate blanking time of UCD3138 CBC ?

Part Number: UCD3138

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

BLANK_A_BEGIN =0 ; BLANK_A_END=30;  blanking time = 30*4 =120ns .

The measured value on the oscilloscope is 13.8ns .

I don't know why there are different .

  • The resolution of BLANK_A_BEGIN and BLANK_A_END bitfields is indeed 4 nS.
    The is always going to be mismatch between the setting and oscilloscope measurement due to internal signal path propagation delays.

    The osciloscope shows the signals at the input of analog comparator, when planking is applied in the DPWM.
    You should try to estimate this delay based on your measurements and place you blanking begin and end accordingly.
