Input capture and output compare features-Query

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TMS320F28379D, TMS320F28379S, TMS320F28075, TMS320F28069, CONTROLSUITE

I am a beginner and i would like to know if the following micro controllers have the input capture and output compare features, if they have sd card compatibility, abou their availability for the next 10 years and the cost of compilers and debuggers. thank you

  • Hi Janani,

    This being C2000 forum I'll talk about C2000 devices only and not the Hercules ones listed.

    Yes all of the above devices have capture, compare and Mass Storage card interface features with example codes in controlSuite.

    If you buy a development kit for any of the above devices, you can use CCS for free (Lifetime). As for debuggers the dev kits have them onboard. If you want to purchase you can search for XDS100v2.

  • Hi Janani,

    In the motor/power control space, the capture-compare is very important.  The C2000 is built for this space and in the C2000 the functionality which is normally done in a capture/compare peripheral is split between various peripherals and optimized/enhanced.

    capture and measure the time between edges -> the eCAP peripheraloutput a PWM -> the ePWM peripheral   (note that the eCAP can also output a PWM waveform, however it will not offer as many features)
    count pulses -> the eQEP peripheral

    You can find the number of each listed in each device's datasheet.


    Thank you,
