Hi,
ESP_Angus many thanks for your reply.
I’ve switched to RMT for input step capture and brought forward some of the various functions.
My issue with the receive ISR handler function timing out after 5 seconds was due to xRingbufferReceive() not blocking correctly, once I changed to xRingbufferReceiveUpTo() then the task blocks and loops as it should without issue.
Depending on the speed required and pulses per mm for the stepper driver a cycle can vary between 200us to 600us.
Using RMT for input stepping capture and PCNT for encoder inputs will give me what I need – I believe. I’m looking to complete as a next stage development to use a second presence for both RMT & PCNT as a check / compare and contrast. I believe this will not cause any performance issues just provide the benefit of a checksum for both inputs, do you agree?
I’m only struggling with one issue now. My process for a step received; when a step is received a step is output to the stepper motor driver and a check is made against the encoder inputs to ensure the physical step has actually happened.
If I do a call to pcnt_get_counter_value() it generally takes 1 to 2us to complete, but it can take 50us to 250us, generally every 6th or 8th function call. Any idea why?
I’ve pinned the receive task to core 1 with all the code on core 0
I'm happy to post the code but it's greater than 700 lines and I don't know how to add a file.....
Many thanks, for the help received Paul
My task loop is as below;
while(rb) {
size_t rx_size = 0;
char *item = (char *) xRingbufferReceiveUpTo(rb, &rx_size, portMAX_DELAY,1);
if(item) {
vRingbufferReturnItem(rb, (void*) item);
// send a STEP, Direction indicator first then pulse to Stepper driver
stepCount++;
char dir = item[0]; // Direction output
if (dir == '1') {
REG_WRITE(GPIO_OUT_W1TS_REG, BIT(18));
};
if (dir == '0') {
REG_WRITE(GPIO_OUT_W1TC_REG, BIT(18));
};
delayMicroseconds(10);
// send STEP, to stepper driver
REG_WRITE(GPIO_OUT_W1TC_REG, BIT(19)); // write pin LOW
delayMicroseconds(10);
REG_WRITE(GPIO_OUT_W1TS_REG, BIT(19)); // write pin HIGH
delayMicroseconds(100); // give time for encoder interrups to be received
portENTER_CRITICAL_ISR(&mux);
pcnt_get_counter_value(PCNT_UNIT_0, &encCount); // get encoder count
if (encCount != last_encCount) { // compare current and last encoder count
stepCount =0;
encEventCount++;
}
portEXIT_CRITICAL_ISR(&mux);
last_encCount = encCount;
}
// validate step / encoder events - a step event should always be followed by an encoder event, ie encoder count should change
if (stepCount > 0) {
StepError++;
}
}

Re: My long path to configuring the RMT and PCNT to share GPIO
Sorry for hijacking this thread with a question that somewhat still relates to it.
So I'd like to control from ISR when PCNT counting is started/stopped (without any control pin assigned to this).
That is i'd like to connect the input signal of 41 (pcnt_ctrl_ch0_in0; PCNT unit 0, channel 0) to GPIO_NUM_48 (const 0) or GPIO_NUM_56 (const 1) or something similar.
What would be the correct way to do this (some example code please) with minimal delay (GPIO_SIG41_IN_SEL+GPIO_FUNC41_IN_SEL?)?
Maybe?
Update: I've tested the above code and it works, however pcnt_config.ctrl_gpio_num has to be set to a real GPIO for pcnt_unit_config even though in practice it's not used later on.
So I'd like to control from ISR when PCNT counting is started/stopped (without any control pin assigned to this).
That is i'd like to connect the input signal of 41 (pcnt_ctrl_ch0_in0; PCNT unit 0, channel 0) to GPIO_NUM_48 (const 0) or GPIO_NUM_56 (const 1) or something similar.

Code: Select all
REG_WRITE(GPIO_FUNC41_IN_SEL_CFG_REG, 0x80+0x38); // set 1
REG_WRITE(GPIO_FUNC41_IN_SEL_CFG_REG, 0x80+0x30); // set 0Re: My long path to configuring the RMT and PCNT to share GPIO
It is possible to use the PCNT without any control pin if -1 is assigned to control GPIO at initialization time. Thus:
Via this and my earlier sample it is possible that counting is started/stopped entirely from SW (in my case from interrupt code, connecting the control GPIO to the always 1/0 GPIO) without any control pin used (thus only counting pin is needed).
It's not RMT based like started in this thread, but it's another alternative for saving some pins connected to PCNT use that can be useful in some cases.

Re: My long path to configuring the RMT and PCNT to share GPIO
I really appreciate the way this was laid out. It made journeying into lower level IDF much more manageable as I'm still figuring things out.
For anyone looking to get MCPWM and PCNT using the same pin, I have an example here:

The key fix for getting input and output on the same pulse and direction pins:
I'm sure there's more elegant approaches but hopefully this can help anyone else trying to understand what the fix is doing.
One part that was a little confusing in the above example was this line:
If I understand it correctly, this is enabling FUN_IE (1ULL<<9) as seen in the technical reference manual under IO_MUX_X_REG:

I found the the PIN_INPUT_ENABLE macro is just setting the same thing so used that instead.

Code: Select all
// Enable both pins as output.
REG_SET_BIT(GPIO_ENABLE_REG, (1ULL<<TICK_PIN|1ULL<<DIR_PIN));
// Enable input on direction pin mux.
PIN_INPUT_ENABLE(GPIO_PIN_MUX_REG[DIR_PIN]);
// Connect MCPWM pulse signal to TICK output in-case MCPWM is setup before TICK is registered as an input.
gpio_matrix_out(TICK_PIN, pulse_signal, 0, 0);
// Enable TICK as input in GPIO mux.
PIN_INPUT_ENABLE(GPIO_PIN_MUX_REG[TICK_PIN]);
