Hi

Through the hal oscilloscope, I got the following pwm signal:


But I need 5v of amplitude, I don't know why I only got about 1V, any idea?

If you look at the vertical scale, is is not 1 Volt per division, it is 1 (unitless)/division. You are displaying a hal signal of bit type, so it has values of 1 and zero, only. What you get out of a parallel port pin depends on your parallel port, and the electrical loading on it. And, Halscope is not looking at the actual pin, only the hal signal that is being fed to the pin, on the software side. If you shorted the pin to ground, Halscope would never know that.

I really appreciate your answer so useful, I never thought about it, now I will try with an oscilloscope.

Thank you!
