Frequency Capture
Pulse-width Capture
Selecting the frequency capture event action, makes the enabled capture channel perform a
input capture and restart on any event. This enables Timer/Counter to use capture to measure
the period or frequency of a signal directly. The capture result will be the time, T, from the previ-
ous Timer/Counter restart and until the event occurred. This can be used to calculate the
frequency, f, of the signal:

nal signal.
Figure 12-10. Frequency capture of an external signal
Since all capture channels uses the same Counter (CNT), only one capture channels must be
enabled at a time. If two capture channels are used with different source, the Counter will be
restarted on positive edge events from both input sources, and the result from the input capture
will have no meaning.
Selecting the pulse-width measure event action makes the enabled compare channel perform
the input capture action on falling edge events and the restart action on rising edge events. The
counter will then start at zero at every start of a pulse and the input capture will be performed at
the end of the pulse. The event source must be an I/O pin and the sense configuration for the pin
must be set up to generate an event on both edges.
