[beagleboard] Re: PWM: changing Period of EHRPWM
Hi,
In case someone still needs a solution to this problem, I've written a
small kernel patch: ti_ehr_pwm.patch
https://sites.google.com/site/avterekhov/ti_ehr_pwm.patch and a short
description of how to apply it:
https://randomlinuxhacks.wordpress.com/2014/09/16/changing-pwm-period-on-beaglebone-black/
So far it works for me.

PWM on the BBB is turning out to be more work than I had thought.

Tried your trick even replaced the new dtbo file but even after
that I am getting the default value for Period ( ie, 500) and duty (ie,
0) ... Is there any step that you missed in between...??. Anyways thanks
for the tip..:)

Hello,
you can change period by changing dtbo files.
1 Generate dts file from original dtbo file
dtc -I dtb -O dts -o /lib/firmware/bone_pwm_P8_13-00A0.dts /lib/firmware
/bone_pwm_P8_13-00A0.dtbo
2 Change period
open file /lib/firmware/bone_pwm_P8_13-00A0.dts with editor at
lines around line 26:
pwm_test_P8_13 {
compatible = pwm_test;
pwms = 0xdeadbeef 0x1 0x7a120 0x1;
and change to following, for example change period to 10ns=0.1ms
pwm_test_P8_13 {
compatible = pwm_test;
pwms = 0xdeadbeef 0x1 10 0x1;
where
-3rd parameter of linepwms = ~ is period.
-period (and other parameters) can be written in either decimal or
hexadecimal of 0xABC format.
-default period 0x7a120 is 500 in decimal.
-As you mentioned, Both A and B output for one eHRPWM must have same
period setting.
If not, the second device will fail to setup at echo (device)
/sys/devices/bone_capemgr.*/slots command.
3 Compile to new dtbo file
dtc -O dtb -o bone_pwm_P8_13-00A0.dtbo -b 0 -@ bone_pwm_P8_13-00A0.dts
You'd better back up original dtbo file before overwriting it.
4 Use new dtbo file.
echo bone_pwm_P8_13 /sys/devices/bone_capemgr.*/slots

Hey,
yes sure, duty must be (0 = duty = period). Otherwise you would try
to to set a pwm duty cycle of less than 0% or more than 100%. Returning an
error to the user is a proper way to handle this.
As mentioned above EHRPWM1 and EHRPWM2 share the same base period (or
respectively the base frequency). If I enable both PWM ouputs, writing to
the period files always results in an error. Enabeling only one of the two
outputs lets me change the periods.
This does make sense after all. I assume the necessary crosschecking of
the conditions (0 = duty = period) for related PWM outputs is simply not
implemented yet or mayby just faulty.

Hi
I'm just starting out, but here is what I found. Hopefully it can help
you.
The period must be greater than duty.
This worked fine for me:
echo 10 /sys/devices/ocp.2/pwm_test_P9_14.12/period
Period is given in ns. Duty is given in ns on/off depending on
polarity.

[beagleboard] Re: PWM: changing Period of EHRPWM
Hi,
the problem is a bug in pwm_test so that once you enabled two channels of
the same ehrpwm you cannot change the period.
Try look at
