bunt _ / PwmOscillator

Creates square-wave frequency output on pin p22. Custom frequency between 1Hz and 48 MHz. (LPC 1768)

Dependencies:   FastPWM

Creates square-wave frequency output on pin22 with custom frequency.

Tested for frequencies from 1Hz to 48MHz. The accuracy depends heavily on the frequency - at 12, 24, 48 MHz the frequency deviation is less than 1%, but at 20 MHz it is about 20%.

Uses Library FastPWM ( http://mbed.org/users/Sissors/code/FastPWM/ ). For LPC 1768.

How to use this Library:

#include "mbed.h"
#include "PwmOscillator.h"

PwmOscillator oscillator;
DigitalOut led1(LED1);

int main() 
{
    oscillator.initWithFrequency(8000000);     // initialize oscillator instance (pin p22) with custom frequency, here: 8MHz
    led1=1;                                    // optional: indicator LED shows that oscillator is running
    oscillator.start();                        // start oscillator
    wait(5);                                   // optional: oscillator is running 5 seconds
    oscillator.stop();                         // stop oscillator
    led1=0;
}
