Grading Rubric for Written Report (to be filled in by the instructor)

Pre-Lab (5%)

1. List the most significant actions that a CPU takes when it responds to an enabled
interrupt. (3 marks)
the processor can be interrupted for a number of reasons such as a hardware device has
signaled that it has data to process. A hardware device has completed a task. So when an
interrupt enabled, the CPU will have to stop execute the current program. The control then
passes to a special piece of code called an interrupt handler or interrupt service routine.

2. What is the maximum value, in decimal, that a 12-bit and a 24-bit counter can count up
to? (1 mark)
4096

3. The LPC1768 has how many PWM outputs? (1 mark)

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is modulation technique that generates Variable-width pulses
to represent the amplitude of an analog input signal. Thus, LPC1768 has 6 PWM output pin.

Lab Assignment 6.3:

Create PWM signals with different duty cycles on PWM1.1, PWM1.2 and PWM1.3. i.e., PWM1.1
= 20% duty cycle, PWM1.2 = 50% duty cycle, and PWM1.3 = 80% duty cycle. Observe the
outputs on the Logic Analyzer.
The Program:

#include <LPC17xx.h>
void Init_Wait(void);
void wait_ms(int t);
int main(void)
{
Init_Wait();
LPC_PINCON->PINSEL4 |= (21<<0); //Set pin function to (PWM1.1,
P2.0),(PWM1.2,P2.1),(PWM1.3, P2.2)
LPC_PWM1->PCR = (7<<9); //PWM1,PWM2,PWM3 output enabled
LPC_PWM1->PR = 24;//Prescaler 1us resolution
LPC_PWM1->MCR |= (1<<1); //Reset on PWM MR0 & TC if it matches MR0
LPC_PWM1->MR0 = 10000; //set PWM cycle to 10 ms
LPC_PWM1->MR1 = 2000; //Set 20% Duty Cycle to (PWM1.1, P2.0)
LPC_PWM1->MR2 = 5000; //Set 50% Duty Cycle to (PWM1.2, P2.1)

LPC_PWM1->LER = (1<<3) |(1<<2) |(1<<1) | (1<<0); //latch values in MR3,MR2,MR1 and MR0

{
LPC_TIM0->TCR = 1<<1; //reset timer counter
LPC_TIM0->TCR = 1; //enable timer counter
while (LPC_TIM0->TC < t); //wait if conter < t
}
Lab Assignment 6.4:

(a) 0V produce 0% duty cycle

(b) 3V produce 100% duty cycle

 Figure above shows the result from logic analyzer. It can be observed that when the input
voltage is 0V, the duty cycle is 0% and when the input voltage is 3V, the duty cycle is 100%.
It can also be noticed that with the increase in input voltage, the duty cycle increases.

while((LPC_ADC -> ADDR0 & (1u<<31)) == 0)
{} //Wait for conversion to finish
result = ((LPC_ADC -> ADDR0 >> 4) & 0xFFF);

Questions

6.1 By referring to the “startup_PLC17xx.s” file, give the interrupt number for Timer0 to
Timer3, and GPIO, respectively. (4 marks)

32 bit

6.2 Explain why in the interrupt handler, the interrupt must be cleared?

(4 marks)

to service the device and stop it from interrupting. Once the handler returns, the CPU
resumes what it was doing before the interrupt occurred.

6.3 Determine the value in the prescale register (PR) if the timer resolution of 5 ms is
required. (4 marks)

5kHz

6.4 Explain the function of the prescale counter (PC) and its relation to the PR. (3 marks)

Prescale register is used to define the resolution of the timer. If the {R is 0 then TC in
incremented every 1 clock cycle of the peripheral clock. The 32-bit is a counter which is
increment to the value stored in PR.
CONCLUSION

Upon completing the Lab 6, on an ARM cortex-M3 microcontoller, Lab 6 demonstrates an

interrupt, timer and PWM (LPC1768). Interrupts are used to provide a quick response to random,
unexpected events while incurring minimal overhead. While timers are an essential component of
modern microcontrollers. The LPC1768 has four Timer peripherals that are identical: Timer0,
Timer1, Timer2, and Timer3.Each of the four timers is 32-bit and has a 32-bit prescale that can be
configured. They are meant to count the cycles of a peripheral clock or an external clock signal
and, if desired, generate an interrupts (or other actions) in response to timer values that have been
set (based on four match registers). Learn how to modify a programmed by changing the interrupt,
generating a timer resolution, and so on. Generating PWM signals with a variable duty cycle and
