Macro Definition Documentation

#define FSL_EWM_DRIVER_VERSION   (MAKE_VERSION(2, 0, 3))

Enumeration Type Documentation

This structure contains the settings for all of EWM interrupt configurations.

Enumerator
kEWM_InterruptEnable 

Enable the EWM to generate an interrupt.

This structure contains the constants for the EWM status flags for use in the EWM functions.

Enumerator
kEWM_RunningFlag 

Running flag, set when EWM is enabled.

Function Documentation

void EWM_Init ( EWM_Type *  base,
const ewm_config_t config 
)

This function is used to initialize the EWM. After calling, the EWM runs immediately according to the configuration. Note that, except for the interrupt enable control bit, other control bits and registers are write once after a CPU reset. Modifying them more than once generates a bus transfer error.

This is an example.

* ewm_config_t config;
* config.compareHighValue = 0xAAU;
* EWM_Init(ewm_base,&config);
*
Parameters
baseEWM peripheral base address
configThe configuration of the EWM
void EWM_Deinit ( EWM_Type *  base)

This function is used to shut down the EWM.

Parameters
baseEWM peripheral base address
void EWM_GetDefaultConfig ( ewm_config_t config)

This function initializes the EWM configuration structure to default values. The default values are as follows.

* ewmConfig->enableEwm = true;
* ewmConfig->enableEwmInput = false;
* ewmConfig->setInputAssertLogic = false;
* ewmConfig->enableInterrupt = false;
* ewmConfig->ewm_lpo_clock_source_t = kEWM_LpoClockSource0;
* ewmConfig->prescaler = 0;
* ewmConfig->compareLowValue = 0;
* ewmConfig->compareHighValue = 0xFEU;
*
Parameters
configPointer to the EWM configuration structure.

This function enables the EWM interrupt.

Parameters
baseEWM peripheral base address

  • kEWM_InterruptEnable
static void EWM_DisableInterrupts ( EWM_Type *  base,
uint32_t  mask 
)
inlinestatic

This function enables the EWM interrupt.

Parameters
baseEWM peripheral base address
maskThe interrupts to disable The parameter can be combination of the following source if defined
  • kEWM_InterruptEnable
static uint32_t EWM_GetStatusFlags ( EWM_Type *  base)
inlinestatic

This function gets all status flags.

This is an example for getting the running flag.

* uint32_t status;
* status = EWM_GetStatusFlags(ewm_base) & kEWM_RunningFlag;
*
Parameters
baseEWM peripheral base address
Returns
State of the status flag: asserted (true) or not-asserted (false).
See Also
_ewm_status_flags_t
  • True: a related status flag has been set.
  • False: a related status flag is not set.
void EWM_Refresh ( EWM_Type *  base)

This function resets the EWM counter to zero.

Parameters
baseEWM peripheral base address
