Description
Embedded Characteristics
The PWM macrocell controls
tary square output waveforms. Characteristics of the output waveforms such as period, duty-
cycle, polarity and dead-times (also called dead-bands or non-overlapping times) are configured
through the user interface. Each channel selects and uses one of the clocks provided by the
clock generator. The clock generator provides several clocks resulting from the division of the
PWM master clock (MCK).
All PWM macrocell accesses are made through registers mapped on the peripheral bus. All
channels integrate a double buffering system in order to prevent an unexpected output wave-
form while modifying the period, the duty-cycle or the dead-times.
Channels can be linked together as synchronous channels to be able to update their duty-cycle
or dead-times at the same time.
The update of duty-cycles of synchronous channels can be performed by the Peripheral DMA
Controller Channel (PDC) which offers buffer transfer without processor Intervention.
The PWM macrocell provides 8 independent comparison units capable of comparing a pro-
grammed value to the counter of the synchronous channels (counter of channel 0). These
comparisons are intended to generate software interrupts, to trigger pulses on the 2 indepen-
dent event lines (in order to synchronize ADC conversions with a lot of flexibility independently of
the PWM outputs), and to trigger PDC transfer requests.
The PWM outputs can be overridden synchronously or asynchronously to their channel counter.
The PWM block provides a fault protection mechanism with 4 fault inputs
fault condition and to override the PWM outputs asynchronously.
For safety usage, some control registers are write-protected.
