PWM

Overview

Function

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is a technology that performs digital coding on analog signal levels and converts them into pulses. It is widely used in fields, such as measurement, communication, and power control and conversion. The PWM module is used for controlling vibrators and adjusting backlight brightness in smart devices.

Basic Concepts

A pulse (electrical pulse) is a burst of current or voltage, characterized by sudden change and discontinuity. There are many types of pulses. Common pulses include triangular, sharp, rectangular, square, trapezoidal, and zigzag pulses. Main pulse parameters include the repetition period T (T = 1/F, where F is the pulse repetition frequency), pulse amplitude U, rise time ts at the leading edge, fall time t at the trailing edge, and pulse width tk.

Working Principles

In the Hardware Driver Foundation (HDF), the PWM uses the independent service mode (see Figure 1) for API adaptation. In this mode, each device independently publishes a service to process external access requests. When receiving an access request, the HDF DeviceManager extracts parameters from the request to call the internal APIs of the target device. In the independent service mode, the HDF DeviceManager provides service management capabilities. However, you need to configure a node for each device, which increases memory usage.

In the independent service mode, the core layer does not publish a service for the upper layer. Therefore, a service must be published for each controller. To achieve this purpose:

You need to implement the Bind() function in HdfDriverEntry to bind services.
The policy field of deviceNode in the device_info.hcs file can be 1 or 2, but not 0.

The PWM module is divided into the following layers:

Interface layer: provides APIs for opening or closing a PWM device, setting the PWM period, signal ON-state time, PWM device polarity, or PWM device parameters, obtaining PWM device parameters, and enabling or disabling a PWM device
Core layer: provides the capabilities of adding or removing a PWM controller and managing PWM devices. The core layer interacts with the adaptation layer through hook functions.
Adaptation layer: instantiates the hook functions to implement specific features.

Development Guidelines

When to Use

Before using your PWM device with OpenHarmony, you need to perform PWM driver adaptation.

Available APIs

To enable the upper layer to successfully operate the PWM controller by calling the PWM APIs, hook functions are defined in //drivers/hdf_core/framework/support/platform/include/pwm/pwm_core.h for the core layer. You need to implement these hook functions at the adaptation layer and hook them to implement the interaction between the interface layer and the core layer.

PwmMethod:

struct PwmMethod {
    int32_t (*setConfig)(struct PwmDev *pwm, struct PwmConfig *config);
    int32_t (*open)(struct PwmDev *pwm);
    int32_t (*close)(struct PwmDev *pwm);
};

Table 1 Hook functions in PwmMethod

Function	Input Parameter	Return Value	Description
setConfig	pwm: structure pointer to the PWM controller at the core layer. config: structure pointer to the device attributes to set.	HDF_STATUS	Sets device attributes.
open	pwm: structure pointer to the PWM controller at the core layer.	HDF_STATUS	Opens a PWM device.
close	pwm: structure pointer to the PWM controller at the core layer.	HDF_STATUS	Closes a PWM device.

How to Develop

The PWM module adaptation procedure is as follows:

Instantiate the driver entry.
Configure attribute files.
Instantiate the PWM controller object.
Debug the driver.

Example

The following uses the //device_soc_hisilicon/common/platform/pwm/pwm_hi35xx.c driver of the Hi3516D V300 development board as an example to describe the PWM driver adaptation.

Instantiate the driver entry.

The driver entry must be a global variable of the HdfDriverEntry type (defined in hdf_device_desc.h), and the value of moduleName must be the same as that in device_info.hcs. In the HDF, the start address of each HdfDriverEntry object of all loaded drivers is collected to form a segment address space similar to an array for the upper layer to invoke. Generally, the HDF calls Bind() and then Init() to load a driver. If Init() fails to be called, the HDF calls Release() to release driver resources and exit.

PWM driver entry example:

   struct HdfDriverEntry g_hdfPwm = {
       .moduleVersion = 1,
       .moduleName = "HDF_PLATFORM_PWM",   // (Mandatory) The value must be the same as that of moduleName in the .hcs file.
       .Bind = HdfPwmBind,                  // See the Bind function.
       .Init = HdfPwmInit,                  // See the Init function.
       .Release = HdfPwmRelease,            // See the Release function.
   };
   HDF_INIT(g_hdfPwm);                      // Call HDF_INIT to register the driver entry with the HDF.

Configure attribute files.

Add the deviceNode information to the device_info.hcs file. The deviceNode information is related to the driver entry registration. The following example uses two PWM controllers as an example. If there are more PWM controllers, add the deviceNode information to the device_info.hcs file for each controller. The device attribute values configured in pwm_config.hcs are closely related to default values or value ranges of the PwmDev members at the core layer.

device_info.hcs example

Add the deviceNode information to the //vendor/hisilicon/hispark_taurus/hdf_config/device_info/device_info.hcs file.

  root {
      device_info { 
          platform :: host {
              hostName = "platform_host";
              priority = 50;
              device_pwm ::device {                               // Configure an HDF device node for each PWM controller.
                  device0 :: deviceNode {
                      policy = 1;                                 // The value 1 means to publish services only to the kernel-mode processes.
                      priority = 80;                              // Driver startup priority.
                      permission = 0644;                          // Permission for the device node created.
                      moduleName = "HDF_PLATFORM_PWM";            // (Mandatory) Driver name, which must be the same as moduleName in the driver entry.
                      serviceName = "HDF_PLATFORM_PWM_0";         // (Mandatory) Unique name of the service published by the driver.
                      deviceMatchAttr = "hisilicon_hi35xx_pwm_0"; // Controller private data, which must be the same as that of the controller in pwm_config.hcs.
                  }
                  device1 :: deviceNode {
                      policy = 1;
                      priority = 80;
                      permission = 0644;
                      moduleName = "HDF_PLATFORM_PWM";
                      serviceName = "HDF_PLATFORM_PWM_1";
                      deviceMatchAttr = "hisilicon_hi35xx_pwm_1";
                  }
                  ...
              }
          }
      }
  }

pwm_config.hcs example

Configure the device attributes in the //device/soc/hisilicon/hi3516dv300/sdk_liteos/hdf_config/pwm/pwm_config.hcs file. The parameters are as follows:

  root {
      platform {
          pwm_config {
              template pwm_device {                       // (Mandatory) Template configuration. If the template is used to configure device node information, the default values in the template will be used for the fields that are not declared for the node.
                  serviceName = "";
                  match_attr = "";
                  num = 0;                                // (Mandatory) Device number.
                  base = 0x12070000;                      // (Mandatory) Base address used for address mapping.
              }
              device_0x12070000 :: pwm_device {           // Add the HDF node and device node information for each device.
                  match_attr = "hisilicon_hi35xx_pwm_0";  // (Mandatory) The value must be the same as that of deviceMatchAttr in device_info.hcs.
              }
              device_0x12070020 :: pwm_device {
                  match_attr = "hisilicon_hi35xx_pwm_1";
                  num = 1;
                  base = 0x12070020;                      // (Mandatory) Base address used for address mapping.
              }
          }
      }
  }

After the pwm_config.hcs file is configured, include the file in the hdf.hcs file. Otherwise, the configuration file cannot take effect.

  #include "../../../../device/soc/hisilicon/hi3516dv300/sdk_liteos/hdf_config/pwm/pwm_config.hcs" // Relative path of the file.

Instantiate the PWM controller object.

Initialize the PwmDev object at the core layer, including defining a custom structure (to pass parameters and data) and implementing the HdfDriverEntry member functions (Bind, Init and Release) to instantiate PwmMethod in PwmDev (so that the underlying driver functions can be called).

Define a custom structure.

To the driver, the custom structure holds parameters and data. The DeviceResourceIface method provided by the HDF reads the values in the pwm_config.hcs file to initialize the members in the custom structure and passes important parameters, such as the PWM device number, to the object at the core layer.

  struct HiPwm {
      struct PwmDev dev;                // (Mandatory) Control object at the core layer.
      volatile unsigned char *base;     // (Mandatory) Register base address used for address mapping.
      struct HiPwmRegs *reg;            // Device attribute structure, which can be customized.
      bool supportPolarity;             // Whether polarity is supported.
  };


  struct PwmDev {                       // PwmDev is the core layer controller structure. The Bind function assigns values to the members of PwmDev.
      struct IDeviceIoService service;  // Driver service.
      struct HdfDeviceObject *device;   // Driver device object.
      struct PwmConfig cfg;             // Device attribute structure. For details, see the following definition.
      struct PwmMethod *method;         // Hook functions.
      bool busy;                        // Whether the device is busy.
      uint32_t num;                     // Device number.
      OsalSpinlock lock;                // Spinlock.
      void *priv;                       // Private data.
  };


  struct PwmConfig {                    // PWM device attributes.
      uint32_t duty;                    // Time that a signal is in the ON state, in ns.
      uint32_t period;                  // Time for a signal to complete an on-and-off cycle, in ns.
      uint32_t number;                  // Number of square waves to generate.
      uint8_t polarity;                 // Polarity
                                        // -------------------|--------------
                                        // PWM_NORMAL_POLARITY|Normal polarity
                                        // PWM_INVERTED_POLARITY|Inverted polarity
                                        //
      uint8_t status;                   // Running status.
                                        // ------------------|-----------------
                                        // PWM_DISABLE_STATUS|Disabled
                                        // PWM_ENABLE_STATUS|Enabled
  };

Instantiate the PwmMethod structure in PwmDev.

  struct PwmMethod g_pwmOps = {         // Instantiate the hook functions in pwm_hi35xx.c.
      .setConfig = HiPwmSetConfig,      // Set device attributes.
  };
