Problem with PWM code for PIC16F777 using PCM CCS compiler

i use an analog input to pic and i generate a pwm.When i change the amplitute of the input i want to change the duty cycle of the pwm.This is not happen.Is anyone know why.I use Pic16F777 and pcm ccs compiler. My code is :

#include <16F777.h>
#device ADC=16
#fuses XT,NOWDT,NOPROTECT
#use delay(clock=4000000)
//long duty_cycle,period;







void main()
{
long adc_result;

setup_adc_ports(ALL_ANALOG);
setup_adc(ADC_CLOCK_DIV_16);
setup_ccp1(CCP_PWM);
setup_timer_2(T2_DIV_BY_1, 255, 1);
WHILE (1)
{
set_adc_channel(0);
delay_ms(1);
adc_result=read_adc();
adc_result>>=6;




set_pwm1_duty(adc_result);

}
}

Re: PWM problem

Hi!
Why are u doing this

adc_result>>=6;

Because if the result is say 1023 ( 3FF,maximum possible) then after this operation it will become 15(0x0f). Now in CCSC whenever u r making the project and select a particular frequency for the PWM then it shows the range of duty cycle that can be used. You have to send only those ADC results to the set_pwm1_duty(); which falls within that range.

What i have understood from ur settings is that you are generating a PWM with a frequency of 3.906Khz with duty cycle programmable from 0-1024.
so u donot have to do any right shifting of the adc result. Simply get the resut and put it in the set_pwm1_duty(); function and it will work.
However it is better that firs simply check ur pwm function by executing this code in the while loop instead of the adc code.

set_pwm1_duty(512); //50% duty cycle
DELAY_MS(5000); //check the duty cycle with a scope
set_pwm1_duty(768); //75% duty cycle
DELAY_MS(5000); //check the duty cycle with a scope

once this test is ok, then use the adc based pwm code but remember not to right shift the adc_result.

hope this helps.
Regards.

Re: PWM problem

Something more after imstruction
adc_result=read_adc(); i put the instruction
output_high(PIN_B0); and i see that something going wrong when i read the results of the converter.


while(1){
set_adc_channel(0);
delay_us(1);

adc_result=read_adc();

output_high(PIN_B0);
....}

Re: PWM problem

Hi!
I will try to write a code for u. Meanwhile u try this piece of code

set_adc_channel(0);
while(1){
delay_ms(10);

adc_result=read_adc();

output_high(PIN_B0);
....}

The delay is very critical.

Donot despair as one learns only through his mistakes.

Regards.

@ waseem can u please post the code for the same.
