Counter-Compare (CC) Submodule

Up-down-count mode: used to generate a symmetrical PWM waveform.

To best illustrate the operation of the first three modes, the timing diagrams in Figure 2-13through Figure 2-16show when events are generated and how the EPWMxSYNCI signal interacts.

NOTE: An EPWMxSYNCI external synchronization event can cause a discontinuity in the TBCTR count sequence. This can lead to a compare event being skipped. This skipping is considered normal operation and must be taken into account.
