PIC18F87K90 family devices have three Enhanced
Capture/Compare/PWM (ECCP) modules: ECCP1,
ECCP2 and ECCP3. These modules contain a 16-bit
register, which can operate as a 16-bit Capture register,
a 16-bit Compare register or a PWM Master/Slave Duty
Cycle register. These ECCP modules are upward
compatible with CCP

ECCP1, ECCP2 and ECCP3 are implemented as
standard CCP modules with Enhanced PWM
capabilities. These include:
• Provision for two or four output channels
• Output Steering modes
• Programmable polarity 
• Programmable dead-band control
• Automatic shutdown and restart
The enhanced features are discussed in detail in

The ECCP1, ECCP2 and ECCP3 modules use the
control registers, CCP1CON, CCP2CON and
CCP3CON. The control registers, CCP4CON through
CCP10CON, are for the CCP4 through CCP10
modules.

 

Throughout this section, generic references
are used for register and bit names that are
the same, except for an ‘x’ variable that indi-
cates the item’s association with the
ECCP1, ECCP2 or ECCP3 module. For
example, the control register is named
CCPxCON and refers to CCP1CON,
CCP2CON and CCP3CON.
