FIGURE 2-3: TIMER CONTROL
2.13.1 Sync Source
PSMCs in the device can be synchronized to a master PSMC by routing the sync_out
signal from the master as one of the timer Reset inputs. The sync source selection
determines the Reset source and thereby also determines which PSMC is the master.
The number of selections varies by the number of PSMC instances in the device.
2.13.2 Timer Interrupt
The timer overflow can be selected as a timed interrupt source by clicking on the switch
image at the CY terminal of the timer. Connecting this switch connects the timer carry
out to the PMSC timed interrupt summary bit in the device PIRx register. Enabling the
timer interrupt also requires checking the timed event interrupt enable box on the main
window.
2.14 BLANKING
The blanking control GUI, shown in Figure 2-4, is opened by clicking on the blanking
block in the main GUI. Blanking suppresses the selected inputs for a programmable
period of time which starts at either a rising event or falling event or both.
