Hello all,
Is there any way to operate one or more of the three built in timers in a one-shot mode? I want to generate a single pulse of a given pulsewidth, and then retrigger it some (possibly long) time later based on some event happening in the program. The pulse will be on the order of ten microseconds so I can probably use the eight bit timers, timer 0 or timer 2 and a prescaler of 8.
I don't want to add any components, e.g. a 555 timer, if I can do it with just the on-board timers.
Thanks for any assistance.
Kevin H.
