Hello,
I'm currently using the ECAP module on TMS570LS1227 successfully to calculate the frequency of a PWM signal (I am doing this in all 6 ECAP pins). Sometimes that PWM signal will either clamp high ( value set to 1 permanently) or clamp low (set to 0).
I would like to be able to read the state of the pin on those cases and I can't see any way to do this within the ECAP module. The only solution I can think of is to re-program that pin as GPIO to read the value and then program it back as ECAP afterwards.
Is there a better way to do this? I also thought about forgetting about using the ECAP module altogether and use the HET module to calculate the frequency of the signals, but for some of the 6 PWM signals there is no option to configure the pin as HET, so this is not an option.
Regards,
