8XC196NP, 80C196NU USER’S MANUAL

For the 80C196NU, the PWM module provides three selectable, fixed PWM output frequencies for a specified internal operating frequency (f). Table 9-3 shows the PWM output frequencies for common operating frequencies. The value of bits 0 and 1 in the CON_REG0 register determines the output frequency by enabling or disabling the divide-by-two or divide-by-four clock prescal- er.

NOTE

Use the EPA module to produce variable PWM output frequencies (see “Operating in Compare Mode” on page 10-12).
