Overview
Le Click Board™ AN to PWM est un dispositif qui convertit la valeur du signal analogique d'entrée avec pratiquement n'importe quelle forme d'onde en une sortie de tension PWM à fréquence fixe, avec un cycle de service proportionnel à la tension d'entrée. Il a une réponse linéaire et en appliquant un signal avec une tension comprise entre -2,5 V et +2,5 V sur son entrée, le Click Board™ générera une tension de sortie modulée en largeur d'impulsion (PWM), avec un cycle de service allant de 0 % à 100 %.
Le convertisseur AN vers PWM Click présente une très bonne linéarité, couvre une plage de tensions d'entrée positives et négatives et présente une bonne stabilité de température. Ces caractéristiques permettent à cet appareil d'être utilisé dans diverses applications de tension en fréquence, telles que la conversion AN, l'inspection, les équipements de test et de mesure, tandis qu'il peut également être utilisé comme générateur de signal d'horloge variable.
How Does The AN to PWM Click Board™ Work?
The AN to PWM Click Board™ is a device that converts an analog voltage input signal into a pulse width modulated (PWM) output signal. This Click Board™ consists of an analog circuitry, made of two comparators and two op-amps, needed for the described device. Op-amps used on this Click Board™ are OPA365 series, while comparators used are TLV 3201, both from Texas Instruments. It has a linear response, so applying a voltage in a range of -2.5 to 2.5V on its input, will result in generating the PWM pulse train with duty cycle linearly proportional to the input voltage.
This circuit on this Click Board™ utilizes a triangle wave generator and comparator to generate a pulse-width-modulated (PWM) waveform with a duty cycle that is inversely proportional to the input voltage. An op amp and comparator generate a triangular waveform which is passed to the inverting input of a second comparator. By passing the input voltage to the non-inverting comparator input, a PWM waveform is produced. Negative feedback of the PWM waveform to an error amplifier is utilized to ensure high accuracy and linearity of the output.
One op-amp (U1a) and one comparator (U3) are used in order to form the triangle wave generator. The error amplifier, composed of one op-amp U1b, serves two purposes. First, the error amplifier accommodates feedback of the output PWM waveform in order to correct for any errors in the output voltage introduced by the comparator on the output of the circuit (U2). Second, it adds a dc offset to the input voltage so that negative input voltages can be accommodated by the circuit. That way, in case that input signal is equal to 0V, the value of PWM duty cycle on the output is 50%.
The output PWM signal on the AN to PWM Click Board™ is brought to the INT pin of the mikroBUS socket, in order to enable fast and precise duty cycle measurement, using the interrupt routines. The frequency of the PWM signal is fixed to 500kHz.
The AN to PWM Click Board™ is designed to be operated only with 5V logic level. A proper logic voltage level conversion should be performed before the Click Board™ is used with MCUs with logic levels of 3.3V.

Software Support
We provide a library for the AN To PWM Click Board™ on our LibStock page, as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Library Description
The library contains a interrupt pin state function.
Key Functions
uint8_t antopwm_get_int_state( )- Gets interrupt pin state
Example Description
The application is composed of three sections :
- System Initialization - Initializes the INT pin required to measure.
- Application Initialization - Initializes the driver and timer on 1us
- Application Task - Waits for the + command entered. When a command is entered, it calculates the PWM signal and the voltage on the INT pin.
void application_task ( )
{
uint8_t drdy;
char rsp_data;
drdy = UART_Rdy_Ptr( );
if ( drdy != 0 )
{
rsp_data = UART_Rd_Ptr( );
switch ( rsp_data )
{
case '+' :
{
// Reset flags
period_flag = 0;
idle_high_cnt = 0;
idle_low_cnt = 0;
period_cnt = 0;
while ( period_flag != 1 );

Additional Notes and Fnformation
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need a USB UART Click Board™, USB UART 2 Click Board™ or RS232 Click Board™ to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board.
