| pwm problem in pic 18f84431 |

hello,
I am using pic 18f84431. I got this assignment that i have to generate a PWM signal which will start after 10us. Now i understand that i will wait for 10us then set the timer to zero (as setting the timer to zero starts the signal). But i don't understand how will i implement this in C.
PWM frequency can be 5khz with 50 duty cycle.
thanks

Which PWM?.
For the standard PWM's: set_timer2(0); |

this is a simple pwm using standard module. how can use the set_timer2(0) to have a 10us delay start a pwm signal?
| Code: | #include <18F4431.h>
#device adc=10
#include <math.h>
#fuses XT,NOWDT,NOLVP
#use delay(crystal=20000000)
// this is a simple generation of PWm signal using the CCP1 modude(pin C2) using timer2 inturrupt.
void main()
{
setup_timer_2(T2_DIV_BY_4,255,1); // 20MHz clock, prescaler=1, resolution=4 *256=1024. formula: (20*1000)/(4*4*256)=4.88khz pwm frequency
setup_ccp1(CCP_PWM);
set_pwm1_duty(511L);// 50% duty cycle
} |

delay_us(10);
set_timer2(0);
However do understand that the signal 'starts' as soon as you program the PWM. What setting the timer does is change where you are in the waveform. |

so do i get a 10 us shift from the original signal?when i say the original signal i mean the signal without the 10us delay.
thank you

| You get 10uSec, plus a couple of instruction times. The instructions the processor takes to load the timer. Nothing is ever 'instantaneous'.... |

| so if generate a power pwm and a standard pwm (both same frequency and duty), by this way i can show a phase shift between 1 power pwm signal and a standard pwm signal. am i right? |
