Low Power Comparator

[mauro]

Hello,

I'm working with nrf51822 on a custom board and i'd like to use the LPCOMP as wakeup source. I configured the module by the code listed above:

void lpcomp_init(void) { NRF_LPCOMP->PSEL = 0x00000000; NRF_LPCOMP->REFSEL = 0x00000006; NRF_LPCOMP->ANADETECT = 0x00000000;

NRF_LPCOMP->ENABLE = 1;
NRF_LPCOMP->TASKS_START = 1;

while (NRF_LPCOMP->EVENTS_READY == 0) {

}

}

I don't know if the configuration is correct but the function stuck into the while cycle. Am i doing something wrong? Could be an hardware issue related to the silicon revision of my chip?

Thanks in advance and best regards

Your code snippet looks reasonable. The LPCOMP is only available on second revision chips, so if you try to use this on a first revision chip, I assume you'll see something similar to what you see, since the register isn't actually there.

You can take a look at the PCN for an overview over the changes, and you may also have use in reading the migration whitepaper.

thank you for the response!
