LAUNCHXL-F2800137: How to view Graph without halting code execution?

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-F2800137

Tool/software:

Hello everyone,

I want to use the CCS Graph tool to view the signal that is sampled by the ADC. The issue that I am facing is that the graph tool displays corrupted data. I am sampling a sine-wave but the graph gives me the following:

I assume that the reason for this is the fact the CCS takes the ADC buffer values at random moments and it by chance grabs the data when the buffer is being rewriten. If I do a breakpoint at the moment when the buffer is full I get a nice signal.

The reason that stopping the program execution to get a view of the signal is that the PWM outputs also stop and this can cause issues with my circuit.

Is there a way to view to signal with the graph tool without pausing the PWM outputs? Your help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Samo
