How to count pulses using Modulus Down counter - nrmlguru - Jun 25 11:53:00 2005
Hello,
I am Gurumurthy. I am using 68hc12 for controlling the DC
motor.
I have an encoder which gives the feedback interms of pulses (100
pulses per revolution).
I want to read these pulses and thereby i got to decide the
speed of the motor.
I tried it with configuring onr of the timer into Input
capture
mode and based on interrupt mode I am counting the pulses. But
getting
the pulses at timer i/p and then executing an ISR is taking too much
time. Inbetween this time I am loosing some of the counts(pulse
count).
How can it be overcome?? Is Modulus down counter going to help
me in this regard??
Please help me in this regard. If u provide an excample code
it
will be great.
Thank you
Regards
Gurumurthy

Re: How to count pulses using Modulus Down counter - Dean Manion - Jun 25 15:44:00 2005
Instead of counting pulses use the number of timer ticks beween pulses to calculate
the speed. Don't know what processor speed you are running or what your prescaler is set
to so I can't give you the exact calculation.

=======================
I think some HC12s have encoder inputs. My memory isnt so hot sometimes.
There are examples of using edge sensitive interrupts to read the encoders. If
you have a timer iterrupt that gives you time, and the encoder count, you can
compute speed very accurately. [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Re: How to count pulses using Modulus Down counter - Jason Liszewski - Jun 27 9:30:00 2005
You should use the pulse accumulator instead of
triggering an interrupt each time you receive a pulse.
By using the pulse accumulator in conjunction with a
periodic interrupt based off of the mod down counter
you could determine the speed of your motor.
If you have the mod down counter interrupt every 10ms
you can calculate the difference in the pulse
accumulator now, and 10ms ago. That difference will
give you the number of pulses in the last 10ms, using
that you can easily figure out the speed of the motor. Hope this helps.

Each time the input capture fires, it triggers an interrupt.
The interrupt handler should read the timer channel register for the
capture to get the time (in TCNT ticks) at which the capture happened.
Successive calls to the interrupt handler can look at the increment of
the captured times to see how long it was between the previous event
and the current one.
