Function Documentation

◆ tcc_disable()

void tcc_disable ( uint8_t instance )

Disables the TCC, but retains all its settings.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

◆ tcc_enable()

void tcc_enable ( uint8_t instance )

Enables the TCC. Make sure to call tcc_init first to set it up.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

◆ tcc_get_count()

uint32_t tcc_get_count ( uint8_t instance )

Gets the current value of the counter.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

Returns: The current value of the counter.

◆ tcc_init()

bool tcc_init	(	uint8_t	instance,
		generic_clock_generator_t	clocksource,
		tcc_prescaler_value_t	prescaler
	)

Enables the peripheral clock for the TCC and clocks it with the selected clock source. Also resets the TCC to its starting configuration.

This just sets up the TCC in its reset state. You are still responsible for configuring it with the options you need for waveform output.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
clocksource	The clock source to use for the TCC.
prescaler	The prescaler factor, which divides the clock source by a factor: TCC_PRESCALER_DIV1 - clock source unchanged TCC_PRESCALER_DIV2 - clock source divided by 2 TCC_PRESCALER_DIV4 - clock source divided by 4 TCC_PRESCALER_DIV8 - clock source divided by 8 TCC_PRESCALER_DIV16 - clock source divided by 16 TCC_PRESCALER_DIV64 - clock source divided by 64 TCC_PRESCALER_DIV256 - clock source divided by 256 TCC_PRESCALER_DIV102 - clock source divided by 1024

Returns: true if the TCC was set up, false if instance was out of range (i.e. you asked for TCC2, but the microcontroller only has one TCC).

Note: if this function returns false, you shouldn't interact with this TCC instance with any other functions; they don't do the bounds check that this does.

◆ tcc_is_enabled()

bool tcc_is_enabled ( uint8_t instance )

Checks whether the TCC is enabled.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

Returns: true if the TCC is enabled, false if instance is disabled.

◆ tcc_retrigger()

void tcc_retrigger ( uint8_t instance )

Issues a RETRIGGER command to the TCC.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

◆ tcc_set_cc()

void tcc_set_cc	(	uint8_t	instance,
		uint8_t	channel,
		uint32_t	value
	)

Sets the value of a compare channel.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
channel	The compare channel to set, from 0 to 3 (or 0-1 on some TCCs; check the data sheet)
value	The value to set the compare channel to. Max 24 bits (16,777,215).

◆ tcc_set_channel_polarity()

void tcc_set_channel_polarity	(	uint8_t	instance,
		uint8_t	channel,
		tcc_channel_polarity_t	polarity
	)

Sets the polarity of a channel.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
channel	The waveform output channel from 0 to 7.
polarity	The polarity to set. One of: TCC_CHANNEL_POLARITY_NORMAL - The output is high when WO[n] is set. TCC_CHANNEL_POLARITY_INVERTED - The output is low when WO[n] is set. Inverting one of the waveform outputs is useful to drive a device with a differential signal; inverting several outputs can be useful if you are driving something whose polarity is reversed, like a common anode LED.

◆ tcc_set_count()

void tcc_set_count	(	uint8_t	instance,
		uint32_t	value
	)

Sets the value of the counter.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
value	The value to set the counter to. Max 24 bits (16,777,215).

◆ tcc_set_output_matrix()

void tcc_set_output_matrix	(	uint8_t	instance,
		tcc_output_matrix_t	mode
	)

Sets the output matrix for the TCC.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

mode

The output matrix mode to use. One of:

TCC_OUTPUT_MATRIX_MODULO_4 - Compare channels CC0-CC3 are distributed across waveform outputs WO[0]-WO[7] in a modulo 4 fashion, such that CC0 controls WO[0] and WO[4], CC1 controls WO[1] and WO[5], CC2 controls WO[2] and WO[6], and CC3 controls WO[3] and WO[7].
TCC_OUTPUT_MATRIX_MODULO_2 - Compare channels CC0-CC1 are distributed across waveform outputs WO[0]-WO[7] in a modulo 2 fashion, such that CC0 controls WO0, WO2, WO4, and WO6, and CC1 controls WO1, WO3, WO5, and WO7.
TCC_OUTPUT_MATRIX_ALL_CC0 - Compare channel CC0 controls all waveform outputs.
TCC_OUTPUT_MATRIX_WO0_CC0_OTHERS_CC1 - Compare channel CC0 controls waveform output WO0, and compare channel CC1 controls all other waveform outputs.

◆ tcc_set_period()

void tcc_set_period	(	uint8_t	instance,
		uint32_t	period
	)

Sets the period of the TCC.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
period	The period to set.

The period is the value that the counter counts up to before resetting. The frequency of the timer is determined by the period and the prescaler value.

◆ tcc_set_run_in_standby()

void tcc_set_run_in_standby	(	uint8_t	instance,
		bool	runStandby
	)

Sets whether the TCC should run in standby mode.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
runStandby	true if the TCC should run in standby mode, false otherwise.

◆ tcc_set_wavegen()

void tcc_set_wavegen	(	uint8_t	instance,
		tcc_wavegen_t	mode
	)

Sets the waveform generation mode for the TCC.

Parameters

instance	The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
mode	The waveform generation mode to use. One of: TCC_WAVEGEN_NORMAL_FREQUENCY - Normal frequency generation. The TOP value is PER, and waveform output WO[n] toggles on a match with a compare channel (n % 4 by default;

See also

tcc_set_output_matrix for other options). This mode results in a square wave with a frequency dependent on the PER register, and a duty cycle that depends on the CCn register.

TCC_WAVEGEN_MATCH_FREQUENCY - Match frequency generation. The TOP value is CC0. WO[0] toggles on a match with TOP / CC0 and the counter resets. This results in a square wave with a 50% duty cycle whose frequency depends on CC0.
TCC_WAVEGEN_NORMAL_PWM - Normal pulse-width modulation. The TOP value is PER. Waveform output WO[n] is set at the start of the period and cleared on a match with a compare channel (n % 4 by default;

tcc_set_output_matrix for other options). This mode results in a square wave with a frequency defined by the PER register, and a duty cycle defined by the CCn register.

◆ tcc_stop()

void tcc_stop ( uint8_t instance )

Issues a STOP command to the TCC.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.

When a stop is detected while the counter is running, the counter will maintain its current value, and the Stop bit in the Status register will be set (STATUS.STOP).

Note: There is a more complex way to set what happens to the waveform outputs in a stop condition: you can set values for each waveform in the DRVCTRL's Non-Recoverable State Output Enable (DRVCTRL.NREx) and Non- Recoverable State Output Value (DRVCTRL.NRVx) bits. This is not currently implemented; see the data sheet for more information.

◆ tcc_update()

void tcc_update ( uint8_t instance )

Issues an UPDATE command to the TCC.

Parameters

instance The TCC peripheral instance as numbered in the data sheet, or 0.
