STANDARD AND PTS INTERRUPTS

PTS PWM Toggle Mode Control Block

In PWM toggle mode, the PTS uses a single EPA channel to generate a pulse-width modulated (PWM) output signal. The control block contains registers that contain the PWM on-time (PTSCONST1), the PWM off-time (PTSCONST2), the address pointer (PTSPTR1), and a control register (PTSCON).
