Why do we need this RP2040_PWM library

Features

This PWM-wrapper library enables you to use Hardware-PWM blocks on RP2040-based boards to create and output PWM any GPIO pin. These purely hardware-based PWM channels can generate from very low (lowest is 7.5Hz * (F_CPU/125)) to very high PWM frequencies (in the MHz range, up to (F_CPU/2) or 62.5MHz).

This library is using the same or similar functions as other FastPWM libraries, as follows, to enable you to port your PWM code easily between platforms

1. RP2040_PWM
2. AVR_PWM
3. megaAVR_PWM
4. ESP32_FastPWM
5. SAMD_PWM
6. SAMDUE_PWM
7. nRF52_PWM
8. Teensy_PWM
9. ATtiny_PWM
10. Dx_PWM
11. Portenta_H7_PWM
12. MBED_RP2040_PWM
13. nRF52_MBED_PWM
14. STM32_PWM

The most important feature is they're purely hardware-based PWM channels. Therefore, their operations are not blocked by bad-behaving software functions / tasks.

This important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks. These hardware PWM-channels, still work even if other software functions are blocking. Moreover, they are much more precise (certainly depending on clock frequency accuracy) than other software timers using millis() or micros(). That's necessary if you need to control external systems (Servo, etc.) requiring better accuracy.

The PWM_Multi example will demonstrate the usage of multichannel PWM using multiple Hardware-PWM blocks (slices). The 8 independent Hardware-PWM slices are used to control 8 different PWM outputs, with totally independent frequencies and dutycycles.

Being hardware-based PWM, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks, such as connecting to WiFi, Internet or Blynk services. You can also have many (up to 16) PWM output signals to use.

The RP2040 PWM block has 8 identical slices. Each slice can drive two PWM output signals, or measure the frequency or duty cycle of an input signal. This gives a total of up to 16 controllable PWM outputs. All 30 GPIO pins can be driven by the PWM block

This non-being-blocked important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks.

You'll see software-based SimpleTimer is blocked while system is connecting to WiFi / Internet / Blynk, as well as by blocking task in loop(), using delay() function as an example. The elapsed time then is very unaccurate

---

Why using hardware-based PWM is better

Imagine you have a system with a mission-critical function, controlling a robot or doing something much more important. You normally use a software timer to poll, or even place the function in loop(). But what if another function is blocking the loop() or setup().

So your function might not be executed, and the result would be disastrous.

You'd prefer to have your function called, no matter what happening with other functions (busy loop, bug, etc.).

The correct choice is to use a Hardware Timer with Interrupt to call your function.

These hardware-based PWM channels still work even if other software functions are blocking. Moreover, they are much more precise (certainly depending on clock frequency accuracy) than other software-based PWMs, using millis() or micros(). That's necessary if you need to measure some data requiring better accuracy.

Functions using normal software-based PWMs, relying on loop() and calling millis(), won't work if the loop() or setup() is blocked by certain operation. For example, certain function is blocking while it's connecting to WiFi or some services.

More useful Information about RP2040 PWM

PWM overview

From rp2040-datasheet.pdf, page 543

Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a scheme where a digital signal provides a smoothly varying average voltage. This is achieved with positive pulses of some controlled width, at regular intervals. The fraction of time spent high is known as the duty cycle. This may be used to approximate an analog output, or control switchmode power electronics.

The RP2040 PWM block has 8 identical slices. Each slice can drive two PWM output signals, or measure the frequency or duty cycle of an input signal. This gives a total of up to 16 controllable PWM outputs. All 30 GPIO pins can be driven by the PWM block.

Each PWM slice is equipped with the following:

• 16-bit counter
• 8.4 fractional clock divider
• Two independent output channels, duty cycle from 0% to 100% inclusive
• Dual slope and trailing edge modulation
• Edge-sensitive input mode for frequency measurement
• Level-sensitive input mode for duty cycle measurement
• Configurable counter wrap value
• Wrap and level registers are double buffered and can be changed race-free while PWM is running
• Interrupt request and DMA request on counter wrap
• Phase can be precisely advanced or retarded while running (increments of one count)

Slices can be enabled or disabled simultaneously via a single, global control register. The slices then run in perfect lockstep, so that more complex power circuitry can be switched by the outputs of multiple slices.

Programmer’s Model

All 30 GPIO pins on RP2040 can be used for PWM:

• The 16 PWM channels (8 x 2-channel slices) appear on GPIO0 to GPIO15, in the order PWM0_A, PWM0_B, PWM1_A, etc.
• This repeats for GPIO16 to GPIO29. GPIO16 is PWM0 A, GPIO17 is PWM0 B, so on, up to PWM6 B on GPIO29
• The same PWM output can be selected on two GPIO pins; the same signal will appear on each GPIO.
• If a PWM B pin is used as an input, and is selected on multiple GPIO pins, then the PWM slice will see the logical OR of those two GPIO inputs

---

---

Usage

Before using any PWM slice, you have to make sure the slice has not been used by any other purpose.

1. Create PWM Instance with Pin, Frequency and dutycycle

RP2040_PWM* PWM_Instance;

PWM_Instance = new RP2040_PWM(PWM_Pins, freq, dutyCycle);

---

2. Initialize PWM Instance

if (PWM_Instance)
{
  PWM_Instance->setPWM();
}

---

3. Set or change PWM frequency or dutyCycle

To use float new_dutyCycle

PWM_Instance->setPWM(PWM_Pins, new_frequency, new_dutyCycle);

such as

dutyCycle = 10.0f;
  
Serial.print(F("Change PWM DutyCycle to ")); Serial.println(dutyCycle);
PWM_Instance->setPWM(pinToUse, frequency, dutyCycle);

---

To use uint32_t new_dutyCycle = real_dutyCycle * 1000

PWM_Instance->setPWM_Int(PWM_Pins, new_frequency, new_dutyCycle);

such as for real_dutyCycle = 20%

// dutyCycle = real_dutyCycle * 1000
dutyCycle = 20000;
  
Serial.print(F("Change PWM DutyCycle to ")); Serial.println((float) dutyCycle / 1000);
PWM_Instance->setPWM_Int(pinToUse, frequency, dutyCycle);

---

4. Set or change PWM frequency and dutyCycle manually and efficiently in waveform creation

Need to call only once for each pin

PWM_Instance->setPWM_manual(PWM_Pins, new_top, new_div, new_level);
bool setPWM_DCPercentage_manual(const uint8_t& pin, float& DCPercentage)

after that, if just changing dutyCycle / level, use

// For 50.0f dutycycle
new_level = 50.0f * PWM_Instance->get_TOP() / 100.0f;
PWM_Instance->setPWM_manual(PWM_Pins, new_level);

or better and much easier to use

new_DCPercentage = 50.0f;
PWM_Instance->setPWM_DCPercentage_manual(PWM_Pins, new_DCPercentage);

and the fastest

// For 50.0f dutycycle
new_level = 50.0f * PWM_Instance->get_TOP() / 100.0f;
PWM_Instance->setPWM_manual_Fast(pinToUse, dutycycle);

---

5. Set or change PWM frequency and dutyCycle in PushPull mode

To use a pair of pins of the same channel / slice. Check Programmer’s Model

Need to call only once for each pair of pins

float frequency = 2000.0f;
float dutyCycle = 30.0f;

// Pins have to be in pairs of the same PWM slice / channel
// Check https://github.com/khoih-prog/RP2040_PWM#programmers-model
// For example: pins 0/1, 2/3, 4/5, 6/7, 8/9, 10/11, 12/13, 14/15, 16/17, 18/19, 20/21, 22/23, 24/25, 26/27, 28/29

#define pinToUseA      18     // PWM1A
#define pinToUseB      19     // PWM1A

// Use just one of these 2 for a pair
// assigns pinToUseA, with frequency of 200 Hz and a duty cycle of 0%
PWM_Instance = new RP2040_PWM(pinToUseA, frequency, 0);
// assigns pinToUseB, with frequency of 200 Hz and a duty cycle of 0%
//PWM_Instance = new RP2040_PWM(pinToUseB, frequency, 0);

after that, if just changing dutyCycle / level, use

// For 50.0f dutycycle
new_dutyCycle = 50.0f;
PWM_Instance->setPWMPushPull(pinToUseA, pinToUseB, frequency, new_dutyCycle);

or if just changing frequency, use

// For 50.0f dutycycle
new_frequency = 1000.0f;
PWM_Instance->setPWMPushPull(pinToUseA, pinToUseB, new_frequency, dutyCycle);

6. Important Notes

When using phaseCorrect == true

1. the output frequency will be half of the input frequency freq
2. the init and later usage must be the same phaseCorrect == true

RP2040_PWM* PWM_Instance;

PWM_Instance = new RP2040_PWM(PWM_Pins, freq, dutyCycle, true);

...

PWM_Instance->setPWM_Int(pinToUse, frequency, dutyCycle, true);

When using phaseCorrect == false

1. the output frequency will be equal of the input frequency freq
2. the init and later usage must be the same phaseCorrect == false

RP2040_PWM* PWM_Instance;

PWM_Instance = new RP2040_PWM(PWM_Pins, freq, dutyCycle);

...

PWM_Instance->setPWM_Int(pinToUse, frequency, dutyCycle);

Debug

Debug is enabled by default on Serial.

You can also change the debugging level _PWM_LOGLEVEL_ from 0 to 4

// Don't define _PWM_LOGLEVEL_ > 0. Only for special ISR debugging only. Can hang the system.
#define _PWM_LOGLEVEL_     0

---

Troubleshooting

If you get compilation errors, more often than not, you may need to install a newer version of the core for Arduino boards.

Sometimes, the library will only work if you update the board core to the latest version because I am using newly added functions.
