PRODUCTION DATA
The eCAP module can be used in systems where accurate timing of external events is important.
Applications for eCAP include:
The eCAP module includes the following features:
The eCAP inputs connect to any GPIO input through the Input X-BAR. The APWM outputs connect to GPIO pins through the Output X-BAR to OUTPUTx positions in the GPIO mux. See Section 5.4.2 and Section 5.4.3.
Figure 6-51 shows the block diagram of an eCAP module.
Figure 6-51 eCAP Block DiagramThe eCAP module is clocked by PERx.SYSCLK.
The clock enable bits (ECAP1–ECAP6) in the PCLKCR3 register turn off the eCAP module individually (for low-power operation). Upon reset, ECAP1ENCLK is set to low, indicating that the peripheral clock is off.
