This section describes several applications that use the 16-bit on-chip timer: speed
measurement with the Input Capture mode and an external event counter with the
External Event Counter mode.
4.4
The 16-bit timer can be used in any of the following applications:
4.4.1
The first example illustrates how a rudimentary D-A converter may be built by using the
timer. By controlling the values in the register the user can control the frequency and
duty cycle of the resultant waveform. The voltage at the capacitor is directly proportional
to the duty cycle. Increasing the T
to increase the analog voltage, whereas increasing the T
frequency constant serves to decrease the analog voltage.
4.4.2
In the second example, the PWM output provides servo control for the DC motor. By
varying the ON and OFF times (varying duty cycle) and varying the cycle time, the DC
motor speed is controlled.
