HPPASS (High Performance Programmable Analog Sub-System)

General Description

The High Performance Programmable Analog Sub-System (HPPASS) PDL driver provides API to use the High Performance Programmable Analog Sub-System (HPPASS) HW block.

Glossary

• AC - Autonomous Controller, state machine engine for High Performance Programmable Analog Sub-System
• TC - Timer/Counter, the sub-block of the AC
• STT - State Transition Table, the table of state machine states for High Performance Programmable Analog Sub-System, essentially the 'program' for AC.
• CSG - Comparator Slope Generator

Configuration Considerations

In order to start the HPPASS, following functions should be called in order:

• Cy_HPPASS_Init - initializes entire HPPASS block registers, including STT, SAR and CSG. Refer to config struct cy_stc_hppass_cfg_t for details.
• Cy_HPPASS_AC_Start - starts the AC, which starts the HPPASS block operation. Refer to AC (Autonomous Controller) for details.

Note

When using the HPPASS personality in the Device Configurator, the personality includes "Initialize During Startup" checkbox (enabled by default). When enabled, the Cy_HPPASS_Init function will be called inside of the init_cycfg_all() function.

More Information

For more information on the HPPASS peripheral, refer to the technical reference manual (TRM).
