ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method for generating pulses using a microprocessor including a CPU and a counter programmable by at least one control bit and of a counting threshold, consisting of generating a first edge of a pulse by unconditionally forcing the state of an output signal of the counter to a state corresponding to a state of the control bit, and generating a second edge of the pulse by switching the state of the output signal at the end of the counting threshold.
