emios_frequency_modulated_pwm#

Overview#

The eMIOS project is a simple demonstration example of the SDK eMIOS driver to use eMIOS as PWM generator.
It configures eMIOS UC (Unified channel) as Output Pulse Width and Frequency Modulation Buffered (OPWFMB) mode.
Every two seconds, eMIOS will update PWM frequency from 10kHz to 20kHz, or from 20kHz to 10kHz.
eMIOS generate 10kHz PWM at first.

Supported Boards#

FRDM-MCXE31B
Hardware requirements
  • Micro USB cable

  • FRDM-MCXE31B Board

  • Personal Computer

  • Oscilloscope

Board settings

Probe the PWM signal using an oscilloscope

  • At J3-15 for PWM channel

Prepare the Demo
  1. Connect a type-c USB cable between the host PC and the MCU-Link USB port (J13) on the target board.

  2. Open a serial terminal with the following settings:

    • 115200 baud rate

    • 8 data bits

    • No parity

    • One stop bit

    • No flow control

  3. Download the program to the target board.

  4. Either press the reset button on your board or launch the debugger in your IDE to begin running the demo.

Running the demo

When the example runs successfully, following information can be seen on the OpenSDA terminal:
