17.0
The dsPIC30F SMPS Comparator module monitors
current and/or voltage transients that may be too fast
for the CPU and ADC to capture.
17.1
• 16 comparator inputs
• 10-bit DAC provides reference
FIGURE 17-1:
17.2
This module provides a means for the SMPS dsPIC
DSC devices to monitor voltage and currents in a
power conversion application. The ability to detect
transient conditions and stimulate the dsPIC DSC pro-
cessor and/or peripherals without requiring the proces-
sor and ADC to constantly monitor voltages or currents
frees the dsPIC DSC to perform other tasks.
The Comparator module has a high-speed comparator
and an associated 10-bit DAC that provides a pro-
grammable reference voltage to one input of the com-
parator. The polarity of the comparator output is user
programmable. The output of the module can be used
in the following modes:
• Generate an interrupt
• Trigger an ADC sample and convert process
• Truncate the PWM signal (current limit)
• Truncate the PWM period (current minimum)

• Programmable output polarity
• Interrupt generation capability
• Selectable Input sources
• DAC has three ranges of operation:
• ADC sample and convert trigger capability
• Can be disabled to reduce power consumption
• Functional support for PWM Module:
• Disable the PWM outputs (Fault-latch)
The output of the Comparator module may be used in
multiple modes at the same time, such as: (1) gener-
ate an interrupt, (2) have the ADC take a sample and
convert it and (3) truncate the PWM output in
response to a voltage being detected beyond its
expected value.
The Comparator module can also be used to wake-up
the system from Sleep or Idle mode when the analog
input voltage exceeds the programmed threshold
voltage.
