PWM

Overview

Function

Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a technology that digitally encodes analog signal levels and converts them into pulses.

The PWM module provides a set of APIs for operating a PWM device, including:

• Opening or closing a PWM device
• Setting the PWM period, signal ON-state time, and polarity
• Enabling or disabling a PWM device
• Obtaining and setting PWM parameters

Basic Concepts

A pulse (electrical pulse) is a burst of current or voltage, characterized by sudden change and discontinuity. There are many types of pulses. Common pulses include triangular, sharp, rectangular, square, trapezoidal, and zigzag pulses. Main pulse parameters include the repetition period T (T = 1/F, where F is the pulse repetition frequency), pulse amplitude U, rise time ts at the leading edge, fall time t at the trailing edge, and pulse width tk.

Working Principles

In the Hardware Driver Foundation (HDF), the PWM uses the independent service mode (see Figure 1) for API adaptation. In this mode, each device independently publishes a service to process external access requests. When receiving an access request, the HDF DeviceManager extracts parameters from the request to call the internal APIs of the target device. In the independent service mode, the HDF DeviceManager provides service management capabilities. However, you need to configure a node for each device, which increases memory usage.

In the independent service mode, the core layer does not publish a service for the upper layer. Therefore, a service must be published for each controller. To achieve this purpose:

• You need to implement the Bind() function in HdfDriverEntry to bind services.
• The policy field of deviceNode in the device_info.hcs file can be 1 or 2, but not 0.

The PWM module is divided into the following layers:

• Interface layer: provides APIs for opening or closing a PWM device, setting the PWM period, signal ON-state time, PWM device polarity, or PWM device parameters, obtaining PWM device parameters, and enabling or disabling a PWM device
• Core layer: provides the capabilities of adding or removing a PWM controller and managing PWM devices. The core layer interacts with the adaptation layer through hook functions.
• Adaptation layer: instantiates the hook functions to implement specific features.

How to Develop

The following figure shows how to use PWM APIs.

Figure 2 Using PWM APIs

Opening a PWM Device

Before performing operations on a PWM device, use PwmOpen() to obtain the device handle.

DevHandle PwmOpen(uint32_t num);

Table 3 Description of PwmOpen

Example: Open PWM device 0.

uint32_t num = 0;         // PWM device number.
DevHandle handle = NULL;

handle = PwmOpen(num);    // Open PWM device 0 and obtain the device handle.
if (handle  == NULL) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmOpen: open pwm_%u failed.\n", num);
    return;
}

Closing a PWM Device

Use PwmClose() to close a PWM device to release resources.

void PwmClose(DevHandle handle);

Table 4 Description of PwmClose

PwmClose(handle);    // Close the PWM device and destroy the PWM device handle.

Enabling a PWM Device

int32_t PwmEnable(DevHandle handle);

Table 5 Description of PwmEnable

int32_t ret;

ret = PwmEnable(handle);    // Enable the PWM device.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmEnable: enable pwm failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

Disabling a PWM Device

int32_t PwmDisable(DevHandle handle);

Table 6 Description of PwmDisable

int32_t ret;

ret = PwmDisable(handle);    // Disable the PWM device.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmDisable: disable pwm failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

Setting the PWM Period

int32_t PwmSetPeriod(DevHandle handle, uint32_t period);

Table 7 Description of PwmSetPeriod

int32_t ret;

ret = PwmSetPeriod(handle, 50000000);    // Set the PWM period to 50,000,000 ns.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmSetPeriod: pwm set period failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

Setting the Signal ON-State Time

int32_t PwmSetDuty(DevHandle handle, uint32_t duty);

Table 8 Description of PwmSetDuty

int32_t ret;

ret = PwmSetDuty(handle, 25000000);    // Set the signal ON-state time to 25,000,000 ns.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmSetDuty: pwm set duty failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

Setting the PWM Signal Polarity

int32_t PwmSetPolarity(DevHandle handle, uint8_t polarity);

Table 9 Description of PwmSetPolarity

int32_t ret;

ret = PwmSetPolarity(handle, PWM_INVERTED_POLARITY);    // Set the PWM signal polarity to inverted.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmSetPolarity: pwm set polarity failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

Setting PWM Device Parameters

int32_t PwmSetConfig(DevHandle handle, struct PwmConfig *config);

Table 10 Description of PwmSetConfig

int32_t ret;
struct PwmConfig pcfg;

The pcfg.duty = 25000000;               // Set the signal ON-state time to 25,000,000 ns.
pcfg.period = 50000000;                 // Set the PWM period to 50,000,000 ns.
pcfg.number = 0;                        // Generate square waves continuously.
pcfg.polarity = PWM_INVERTED_POLARITY;  // Set the PWM signal polarity to inverted.
pcfg.status = PWM_ENABLE_STATUS;        // Enable PWM.

ret = PwmSetConfig(handle, &pcfg);      // Set PWM device parameters.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmSetConfig: pwm set config failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

Obtaining PWM Device Parameters

int32_t PwmGetConfig(DevHandle handle, struct PwmConfig *config);

Table 11 Description of PwmGetConfig

int32_t ret;
struct PwmConfig pcfg;

ret = PwmGetConfig(handle, &pcfg);    // Obtain PWM device parameters.
if (ret != HDF_SUCCESS) {
    HDF_LOGE("PwmGetConfig: pwm get config failed, ret:%d\n", ret);
    return ret;
}

2. Set the PWM device period.
3. Set the signal ON-state time for the PWM device.
4. Set the signal polarity for the PWM device.
5. Obtain the PWM device parameters.
6. Enable the PWM device.
7. Set the PWM device parameters.
8. Disable the PWM device.
9. Close the PWM device.
