Tool/software:
Hello,
I would like to use the TIMER A3.0 as a PWM output. I have defined the following for this purpose:
void pwmTempLuefter(real outpwm) { real vCCR0; P4DIR |= BIT1; P4SEL0 |= BIT1; PM5CTL0 |=LOCKLPM5; vCCR0 = 65500; TA3CCR0 = (uint16)vCCR0; TA3CCTL1 = OUTMOD_6; // CCR1 reset/set TA3CCR1 = (uint16)(vCCR0*outpwm); // CCR1 PWM duty cycle ...Code
The PWM on TIMERB0, for example, works. What is different with TIMER A3.0?
Can anyone help me here?
You haven't set OUTMOD in TA3CCTL0, so you won't get a signal on TA3.0. It appears you're actually trying to generate PWM on TA3.1, which is on P4.0 [Ref Data Sheet (SLASEO7C) Table 9-26].
TAx.0 is not very useful for PWM, since you're limited to 50% duty (OUTMOD=4) at half the frequency. [Ref User Guide (SLAU445I) Sec 13.2.5.1]

This should be:
> PM5CTL0 &= ~LOCKLPM5;
