MSP430F2132 and Timer0/1 - Peter Grey - Jul 20 4:22:22 2008
I have now got to the part with Timer0_A3 and Timer1_A2 but can find
no technical details on them. In the user guide (slau144e.pdf) it
refers to TimerA & TimerB. Can someone direct me to information that
gives details on these new timers? The brochure has a little and
there are some code examples.
TIA
Peter

Peter, this is acually nothing new, as far as I've found, just 2
separate timer A's, one with 3 channels the othewr with 2 channels.
Although I have only been using this part for short time. This has a
slight advantage over the TIMER_A5 found in some large parts because
each timer can have separate timebases thus allowing, for example 2
different PWM periods or a PWM generator plus an independent tier NOT
tied to PWM period, which is one of the drawbacks of current single
timer devices. It also has benefits when using timed sampling with the
ADC10 and DTC.
Cheers
Al

Hi Al
I will persevere tomorrow and see what I can achieve.
