Double Switching PWMs

[boshimao]

My chip is MPC5643L. In the "center-aligned and complementary PWM" mode, the IPOL bit of the register MCTRL is 0, the PWMB is from the complementary pair, and the VAL4 and VAL5 are unused. Can I use the "double switch" function in this mode?

Hi,

yes, you can. If double switching is enabled (CTRL1[DBLEN]=1), then the DBLPWM signal is used for deadtime logic, regardless of setting the MCTRL[IPOLx] and complementary signals will be generated based on DBLPWM.

hi,Please explain it to me, thank you.

Hi,

LDMOD bit specify when the buffered registers are loaded with new value.

For LDMOD=1 registers are loaded and take effect immediately after LDOK is set,

for LDMOD=0 reagisters are loaded and take effect at the next PWM reload if LDOK is set.

So the PWM will be generated depending on time when LDOK is set. With LDMOD=1 you can simply miss the edge.

Thank you. Ask another question, I write 0x0C05 to register CTRL1. The PWM register INIT is -100, the register VAL0 is 0, the register VAL1 is 100. In the red circle 1, I calculate the duty cycle is 20%, and the PWM waveform should be a or b or something else, as shown in the following figure. The reference manual is a bit questionable. I mainly want to know how LDMOD affects PWM.
