The Enhanced Capture (ECAP) module can be used to timestamp events detected on signal input pin. It can be used for time measurements of pulse train signals. ECAP module includes 4 timestamp capture registers. For all 4 sequenced timestamp capture events (0->1->2->3->0->...), edge polarity (falling/rising edge) can be selected. Moreover, input signal can be prescaled. This driver leverages IIO subsystem to : - select edge polarity for all 4 capture events (event mode) - log both event index and timestamp for each capture event Event polarity, event indexes, and timestamps give all the information about the input pulse train. Further information can easily be computed : period and/or duty cycle if frequency is constant, elapsed time between pulses, etc...
