8.1

Capture Mode

In Capture mode, CCPR1H:CCPR1L captures the

16-bit value of the TMR1 register when an event occurs

on pin RC2/CCP1. An event is defined as one of the fol-

lowing:

• Every falling edge

• Every rising edge

• Every 4th rising edge

• Every 16th rising edge

The type of event is configured by control bits

CCP1M3:CCP1M0 (CCPxCON<3:0>). When a cap-

ture is made, the interrupt request flag bit CCP1IF

(PIR1<2>) is set. The interrupt flag must be cleared in

software. If another capture occurs before the value in

written by the new value.

8.1.1

CCP PIN CONFIGURATION

In Capture mode, the RC2/CCP1 pin should be config-

ured as an input by setting the TRISC<2> bit.

8.1.2

TIMER1 MODE SELECTION

Timer1 must be running in Timer mode, or Synchro-

nized Counter mode, for the CCP module to use the

capture feature. In Asynchronous Counter mode, the

capture operation may not work.

8.1.3

SOFTWARE INTERRUPT

When the Capture mode is changed, a false capture

interrupt may be generated. The user should keep bit

CCP1IE (PIE1<2>) clear to avoid false interrupts and

should clear the flag bit CCP1IF, following any such

change in operating mode.

8.1.4

CCP PRESCALER

There are four prescaler settings, specified by bits

CCP1M3:CCP1M0. Whenever the CCP module is

turned off, or the CCP module is not in Capture mode,

the prescaler counter is cleared. Any RESET will clear

the prescaler counter.

Switching from one capture prescaler to another may

generate an interrupt. Also, the prescaler counter will

not be cleared, therefore, the first capture may be from

a non-zero prescaler. Example 8-1 shows the recom-

mended method for switching between capture pres-

calers. This example also clears the prescaler counter

and will not generate the “false” interrupt.

Note:

If the RC2/CCP1 pin is configured as an

output, a write to the port can cause a cap-

ture condition.
