Trigger repeater module

The trigger repeater module allows to achieve an oversampling, undersampling or to apply a trigger delay. The repeater modules can select any of the regular ADC triggers that are selectable by ADCSOCxCTL.TRIGGER register and generate a number of repeated pulses as configured in repeater module. The repeater module can apply four types of trigger modifications:

• Oversample mode - allows multiple back-to-back samples from a single trigger pulse.
• Undersample mode - scale down the trigger frequency for one or more SOCs.
• Phase delay - delay the initial trigger by a specified number of SYSCLK.
• Re-trigger Spread - the additional time between two samples.

Example Description

This example configures ADC for oversampling using trigger repeater block. The ePWM0 is configured to periodically trigger the ADC1_AIN0 and the trigger repeater module is configured to generate 4 repeated pulses. Post-processing block will take the repeated pulses, increment PPB conversion count and generates an oversampling interrupt (OSINT1) which triggers a CPU interrupt. The accumulated samples will be stored in PPB SUM register.

ADC Configurations

1. SOC0 is triggered by EPWMSOCA. Sample window is set at 16
2. SOC0 samples on channel 0 and trigger source is set as repeated trigger
3. Trigger repeater module 1 is configured for oversampling
4. Trigger count (N) is set to 3, so it will generate N+1 repeated pulses

ISR Configuration

1. INTXbar0 is set for EPWM0INT1
2. App_epwmISR services this interrupt
   • reads ADC OSINT flag to check if oversampling is done

External Connections

ADC1_AIN0 pin should be connected to signals to be converted.

• on AM263Px CC E1 or AM261x-SOM E1, with HSEC Dock
  • Feed Analog input to ADC1_AIN0 - HSEC PIN 12
• on AM263Px LP / AM261x LP
  • Feed Analog input to ADC1_AIN0 - J1/3 Pin 24

Steps to Run the Example

• When using CCS projects to build, import the CCS project for the required combination and build it using the CCS project menu (see Using SDK with CCS Projects).
• When using makefiles to build, note the required combination and build using make command (see Using SDK with Makefiles)
• Establish connections as mentioned in External Connections section.
• Launch a CCS debug session and run the executable, see CCS Launch, Load and Run
• Using the watch variables, view the ADC conversion results.
• View the ADC conversion results in UART console logs
