CAPTURE/COMPARE/PWM
MODULES
Each Capture/Compare/PWM (CCP) module contains
a 16-bit register which can operate as a:
16-bit Capture register
16-bit Compare register
PWM master/slave Duty Cycle register
Both the CCP1 and CCP2 modules are identical in
operation, with the exception being the operation of the
special event trigger.
Table 8-1
and
Table 8-2
show the
resources and interactions of the CCP module(s). In
the following sections, the operation of a CCP module
is described with respect to CCP1. CCP2 operates the
same as CCP1, except where noted.
CCP1 Module:
Capture/Compare/PWM Register1 (CCPR1) is com-
prised of two 8-bit registers: CCPR1L (low byte) and
CCPR1H (high byte). The CCP1CON register controls
the operation of CCP1. The special event trigger is gen-
erated by a compare match and will reset Timer1.
CCP2 Module:
Capture/Compare/PWM Register1 (CCPR2) is com-
prised of two 8-bit registers: CCPR2L (low byte) and
CCPR2H (high byte). The CCP2CON register controls
the operation of CCP2. The special event trigger is gen-
erated by a compare match and will reset Timer1 and
start an A/D conversion (if the A/D module is enabled).
Additional information on CCP modules is available in
the PICmicro Mid-Range MCU Family Reference
Manual (DS33023) and in Application Note 594, “Using
the CCP Modules” (DS00594).

The compare should be configured for the special event trigger, which clears TMR1.
