18f4550 Timer0 Example

This document describes using timer 0 and interrupts to toggle an LED (A0) on and off every 1 second on a PIC18F4550 microcontroller. It sets the timer 0 prescaler to 1/256 to generate interrupts at a frequency of 46875 Hz, or every 1 second. The timer 0 is initialized to a starting value of 0x48E4 so that an interrupt occurs every second. In the interrupt service routine, the LED state is toggled by changing the LATAbits.LATA0 value. This causes the LED to turn on for 1 second and off for the next 1 second, creating a 1 second on/off cycle.

c //Description: // // //This example is using timer 0 and interrupt to make LED (A0) on for 1 second and off for 1 second. //As we want every 1 second to have 1 interrupt, we need to choose proper starting value of timer0. //Choose prescaler: 1/256, to minimize the timer increment frequency. //Then the timer increment frequency = (Fosc/4)*(1/256)= (48MHz/4)*(1/256)= 46875 Hz. // //Because the period of the interupt is 1 second,then amount of the timer register value for 1 second is 46875*1second = 46875. //Timer0 starting value = 65535 - 46875 = 18660 = 0x48E4. // //When the interrupt is generated, then in the interrupt service routine we just need to toggle the state of the LED. //Finally, we can see the LED on for 1 second and off for other 1 second. // // #include <p18f4550.h> #include <timers.h>
