Normal capture peripheral eCAP cannot support high transmission frequencies for high resolution data communication, which results in a high latency solution. However, HRCAP of C2000 operates over and above standard eCAP and is capable of measuring width of external pulses to a higher degree of accuracy compared to standard capture unit eCAP.
Thus, using HRCAP as a decoding unit at the receiver adds differentiation to the system by significantly reducing the latency for high resolution data transfer. The application report describes the high resolution peripherals of C2000 in brief and discusses the system implementation details. The document also discusses the software flow of both the transmitter and receiver examples and the achieved effective number of bits (ENOB) and latency at various transmission frequencies.
