Abstract
A Peripheral Trigger Generator (PTG) for generating signals adaptively responsive to time-driven events based on execution run time. A variable PTG step delay, such as a 'wait for software trigger' command, may provide an adaptive step delay between the output trigger commands. An adaptive step delay may use a combination of PTG Command+Control Bit in PTG Special Function Register. The adaptive step delay may be part of the Functional Safety Diagnostics package developed for the PTG module.
