20.0 CAPTURE/COMPARE/PWM
MODULES
The capture/compare/PWM module is a peripheral
which allows the user to time and control different
events, and to generate Pulse-Width Modulation
(PWM) signals. In Capture mode, the peripheral allows
the timing of the duration of an event. The Compare
mode allows the user to trigger an external event when
a predetermined amount of time has expired. The
PWM mode can generate Pulse-Width Modulated
signals of varying frequency and duty cycle.
This device contains ten standard capture/com-
pare/PWM modules (CCP1 through CCP10).
The capture and compare functions are identical for all
CCP modules.
Note 1: In devices with more than one CCP
module, it is very important to pay close
attention to the register names used. A
number placed after the module acronym
is used to distinguish between separate
modules. For example, the CCP1CON
and CCP2CON control the same
operational aspects of two completely
different CCP modules.
2: Throughout this section, generic
references to a CCP module in any of its
operating modes may be interpreted as
being equally applicable to any CCPx
module. Register names, module
signals, I/O pins, and bit names may use
the generic designator 'x' to indicate the
use of a numeral to distinguish a
particular module, when required.
