12.5 Output Control

This subsection discusses output control.

12.5.1 Selecting Six Independent PWMs or Three Complementary PWM Pairs

The PWM outputs can be configured as six independent PWM channels or three complementary channel pairs. The option INDEP determines which mode is used (see 5.2 Functional Description). If complementary operation is chosen, the PWM pins are paired as shown in Figure 12-12. Operation of one pair is then determined by one PWM value register. This type of operation is meant for use in motor drive circuits such as the one in Figure 12-13.
