PIC16F785/HV785
8.3
In Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) mode, the CCP
module produces up to a 10-bit resolution PWM output
on the RC5/CCP1 pin. Since the RC5/CCP1 pin is
multiplexed with the PORTC data latch, the TRISC<5>
must be cleared to make the RC5/CCP1 pin an output.
Figure 8-3 shows a simplified block diagram of PWM
operation.
For a step by step procedure on how to set up the CCP
module for PWM operation, see Section 8.3.5 “Setup
for PWM Operation”.
FIGURE 8-3:
The PWM output (Figure 8-4) has a time base
(period) and a time that the output stays high (duty
cycle). The frequency of the PWM is the inverse of
the period (1/period).

Clearing the CCP1CON register will force
the PWM output latch to the default
inactive levels. This is not the PORTC I/O
data latch.
The 8-bit timer TMR2 register is concate-
nated with the 2-bit internal Q clock, or 2 bits
of the prescaler, to create the 10-bit time
base.

The PWM period is specified by writing to the PR2
register. The PWM period can be calculated using the
formula of Equation 8-1.
EQUATION 8-1:
PWM frequency is defined as 1/[PWM period].
When TMR2 is equal to PR2, the following three events
occur on the next increment cycle:
• TMR2 is cleared
• The RC5/CCP1 pin is set. (exception: if PWM
• The PWM duty cycle is latched from CCPR1L into
duty cycle = 0%, the pin will not be set)

The Timer2 postscaler (see Section 7.1
“Timer2 Operation”) is not used in the
determination of the PWM frequency. The
postscaler could be used to have a servo
update rate at a different frequency than
the PWM output.
