charge_pump - Create a square-wave for the ’charge pump’ input of some controller boards
loadrt charge_pump |
The ’Charge Pump’ should be added to the base thread function. When enabled the output is on for one period and off for one period. To calculate the frequency of the output 1/(period time in seconds x 2) = Hz. For example if you have a base period of 100,000ns that is 0.0001 seconds and the formula would be 1/(0.0001 x 2) = 5,000 Hz or 5 kHz. Two additional outputs are provided that run a factor of 2 and 4 slower for hardware that requires a lower frequency.
charge-pump
Toggle the output bit (if enabled)
charge-pump.out bit out
Square wave if ’enable’ is TRUE or unconnected, low if ’enable’ is FALSE
charge-pump.out-2 bit out
Square wave at half the frequency of ’out’
charge-pump.out-4 bit out
Square wave at a quarter of the frequency of ’out’
charge-pump.enable bit in (default: TRUE)
If FALSE, forces all ’out’ pins to be low
