GTM - Generic timer IP module
Scalable I/O coprocessor for automotive microcontrollers
Application & Technical Summary
The Generic Timer IP module (GTM) ensures accurate multi-input data acquisition and multi-output signal generation in automotive powertrain and active safety applications, or in industrial closed-loop applications.
The GTM captures digital input signal changes in real-time. These are used together with digitized analog signals for computation. The powerful programmability due to its high-level language (C) allows to generate virtually any output signal shape with complex pulsewidth modulation (PWM). Multiple programming channels can act in parallel, while still ensuring synchronous signal generation.
