Table 204: PWM unit parameters
PWM_MAXCNT Configuration This configuration can be found in the PWM_CFG register. It defines the
number of counts per PWM cycle for three PWM units. This determines the length tP W M of each PWM
cycle respectively the PWM frequency fP W M . It is programmable for adjustment of the PWM frequency
fP W M
.
PWM_CHOPMODE Configuration This configuration can be found in the PWM_CFG register. It selects
the chopper mode of the 4 PWM channels. Each channel can be configured individually. The following
table gives the available chopper modes.
