Dear all
following codes using assembly for CCP capture mode (MPLAB IDE)
after compile, I loaded hex file in to PIC simulator IDE
then i pressed several time RC2 pin
as per my program TMR1L and TMR1H should be capture to CCPR1L and CCPR1H
but it does not happened
let me know the reason
MCU 16F877A
HTML:
movlw 	b'00000101'
			movwf 	ccp1con    		 ;start with rising CAPTURE 
			bcf		pir1,2
			movlw 	b'00000001'
			movwf 	t1con          ; on timer
Wait
			btfss 	pir1,2
			goto 	Wait

Hi,

Nice try, but your code is a little bit off the mark, have a look at this long thread, it contains lots of information and code examples for doing what you want down on pages 4 and 5. Can CCP do this on 16F876A? :(
 

Dear All
Can I have more reply on this

Hi,


From that link given above I have extracted the most simple capture so you have something that works.

Also look at this tutorial to understand how it works.

Dear wp,

Thank you very much details reply
I know how capture modual is working
my concen is, when I load to it PIC Simulator IDE
it does not work well, I mean after pullse detected by RC2,
CCP1IF must be set, and contain of TMR1L and TMR1H should be captured by CCPR1H and CCPR1L
let me know that I am in right track

Hi,

Do not use that Pic Simulator IDE but its quiet a popular one so seem sure it will work with such a simple function.

You sound as if you are on the right track.

On that example I did, you start Timer 1 , free running,

CCP1 is then activated to record when it senses the rising edge of a signal, when it does it moves Timer1s 16 bit value into the 2 registers which are then copied into the 2 user 'a' registers. It then Sets the IF bit so you know the conversion has completed.
You must now Reset the IF bit so its clear for the next signal.

The next rising edge is recorded as above but placed in the user 'b' registers.

By subtracting the users 'a' and 'b' registers you can determine the time /frequency between the two rising edges.


However as I said that is the routine in its most simple state.
Timer1 is free running so when it counts up to FF FF it just overflows to 00 00 .
The time between 0000 and FFFF depends on your oscillator and Timer1 settings , but is typically less than 1 second.

Depending on the expected speed of your pulses, you may need to uses Timer1s Interrupt so you can have additional counter to record how many times it overflows before the next pulse.

Here is a pic of my Sim showing the values placed in the a and b registers and Timer1 current values.

I do not know how thank you
can I have a good simulator

thanks your reply

in mplab sim, how we give the input to RC2 pin
how know that data captured


Not something I have done before, but you need to create a Stimuli for the RC2 pin.
This seems to work, though it only returns the results when you Run and then Stop the Sim.
If you animate or single step it does not seem to notice RC2 ..?

Dear wp

as I know. we canot give Stmuli in mplab sim for RC2
can you Please try with PIC Simulator IDE then please advice me
 

Dear wp

Hi,

Well think these screen shots show it does work.

Here is the code without the Stimulus on RC2, you Run the code but if you Halt it you see it is just looping around the Btfss waiting for RC2 to change.

On the second screen you can see the RC2 Stimulus added, just Run the code and let it end, I have added a BreakPoint to make it stop automatically, just cursor to the last line and right click on it, from the menu that opens click Add Breakpoint.

Dear WP

That is grate help
I got your point and I simulated using MPLAB SIM and I added watch and now I trapped and unclear how add Stimulus while it is simulating please kindly advice me

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Build your project and open the watch window, then look at the screenshot in post #8, it shows how to open the menu and some values to enter, you then APPLY the settings and Save them if you want.
Then RUN the debugger until it reaches the Breakpoint at the Loop - then it stops and updates the values of the Watch window.

On the attached shot you can see how I have put a Breakpoint just after the BTFSS so it shows when the IF is set on ,
