HOW TO CALCULATE PWM DUTY CYCLE

  • PWM duty ratio depend on output frequency
  • 16MHz  crystal as clock source
  • PRESCALE VALUE ARE  1, 8, 64, and 256

Maximum duty ratio = FOSC  /(FOUTPUT  * 4  * PRESCALE VALUE)  -1
FOR 100KHz
Maximum duty ratio = 16MHz / (100KHz *4 *1)  – 1=39
FOR 200KHz
Maximum duty ratio = 16MHz / (200KHz *4 *1)  – 1=19
I HAVE USED 50% DUTY RATIO FOR BOTH
