Section 14. High-Speed PWM

High-Speed PWM

The High-Speed PWM module contains multiple PWM generators. Each PWM generator

provides two PWM outputs: PWMxH and PWMxL. A master time base generator provides a

synchronous signal as a common time base to synchronize the various PWM outputs. Each

generator can operate independently or in sync with the master time base.

The individual PWM

outputs are available on the output pins of the device. The input fault signals and current-limit

signals, when enabled, monitor and protect the system by placing the PWM outputs into a known

“safe” state.

Each PWM generator can create a trigger to the ADC module to sample the analog signal at a

specific instance during the PWM period. In addition, the High-Speed PWM module also

generates a Special Event Trigger to the ADC module based on the master time base.

The High-Speed PWM module can synchronize itself with an external signal or can act as a

synchronizing source to any external device. The SYNCIx is the input pin, which can synchronize

the High-Speed PWM module with an external signal. The SYNCOx pin is an output pin that

provides a synchronous signal to an external device.

The High-Speed PWM module can be used for a wide variety of power conversion/motor control

applications that require:

• High operating frequencies with good resolution

• Ability to dynamically control PWM parameters such as duty cycle, period and dead time

• Ability to independently control each PWM

• Ability to synchronously control all PWMs

• Independent resource allocation for each PWM generator

• Fault handling capability

• CPU load staggering to execute multiple control loops

Each function of the High-Speed PWM module is described in detail in subsequent sections.

Figure 14-2 illustrates the interconnections between various registers in the High-Speed PWM

module.

14.5 MODULE DESCRIPTION

14.5.1 PWM Clock Selection

The system clock is used to generate the clock for the High-Speed PWM module internally. The

maximum time resolution for this module is TOSC.

14.5.2 Time Base

Each PWM output in a PWM generator can use the master time base or an independent time

base. The input clock of the High-Speed PWM module has prescaler (divider) options of 1:1 to

1:64, which can be selected using the PWM Input Clock Prescaler (Divider) Select bits

(PCLKDIV<2:0>) in the PWM Clock Divider Select register (PTCON2<2:0>). The prescaled value

will also reflect the PWM resolution, which helps to reduce the power consumption of the

High-Speed PWM module. The prescaled clock is the input to the PWM clock control logic block.

The maximum clock rate provides a duty cycle and period resolution of TOSC.

For example:

• If a prescaler option of tion can be set 1:2 is selected, the PWM duty cycle and period resolu

at TOSC * 2. Thereby, the power consumption of the High-Speed PWM module would be

reduced by approximately 50 percent of the maximum speed operation.

• If a prescaler option of tion can be set 1:4 is selected, the PWM duty cycle and period resolu

at TOSC * 4. Thereby, the power consumption of the High-Speed PWM module would be

reduced by approximately 75 percent of the maximum speed operation.

The High-Speed PWM module can operate in the standard edge-aligned or center-aligned time

base.

14.5.3 Write Protection

Certain devices incorporate a write protection feature for the IOCONx and FCLCONx registers,

which prevents any inadvertent writes to these registers. This feature can be controlled by the

PWMLOCK Configuration bit (FOSCSEL<6>). The default state of the write protection feature is

enabled (PWMLOCK = 1). Refer to the “Special Features” chapter of the specific device data

sheet for more information of the Flash Configuration bytes.

To gain write access to the locked registers, the user application must write two consecutive

values of 0xABCD and 0x4321 to the PWMKEY register. The write access to the IOCONx or

FCLCONx registers must be the next SFR access following the unlock sequence; there can be

no other SFR accesses during the unlock process and subsequent write access. To write to both

the IOCONx and FCLCONx registers requires two unlock operations.

The correct unlocking sequence is described in Example 14-1.

Example 14-1: PWM Write-Protected Register Unlock Sequence

; FLT32 pin must be pulled high externally to clear and disable the fault

; Writing to FCLCON1 register requires unlock sequence

mov #0xabcd,w10 ;Load first unlock key to w10 register

mov #0x4321,w11 ;Load second unlock key to w11 register

mov #0x0000,w0 ;Load desired value of FCLCON1 register in w0

mov w10, PWMKEY ;Write first unlock key to PWMKEY register

mov w11, PWMKEY ;Write second unlock key to PWMKEY register

mov w0,FCLCON1 ;Write desired value to FCLCON1 register

; Set PWM ownership and polarity using the IOCON1 register

; Writing to IOCON1 register requires unlock sequence

mov #0xabcd,w10 ;Load first unlock key to w10 register

mov #0x4321,w11 ;Load second unlock key to w11 register

mov #0xF000,w0 ;Load desired value of IOCON1 register in w0

mov w10, PWMKEY ;Write first unlock key to PWMKEY register

mov w11, PWMKEY ;Write second unlock key to PWMKEY register

mov w0,IOCON1 ;Write desired value to IOCON1 register

14.5.4 Standard Edge-Aligned PWM

The standard edge-aligned PWM waveforms are illustrated in Figure 14-3. To create the

edge-aligned PWM, a timer or counter circuit counts upward from zero to a specified maximum

value, called Period. Another register contains the duty cycle value, which is constantly

compared with the timer value. When the timer or counter value is less than or equal to the duty

cycle value, the PWM output signal is asserted. When the timer value exceeds the duty cycle

value, the PWM signal is deasserted. When the timer value is greater than or equal to the period

value, the timer resets itself and the process repeats.

Figure 14-3: Standard Edge-Aligned PWM Mode

14.5.5 Center-Aligned PWM

The center-aligned PWM waveforms illustrated in Figure 14-4, align the PWM signals with

respect to a reference point so that half of the PWM signal occurs before the reference point and

the remaining half of the signal occurs after the reference point. The Center-Aligned mode is

enabled when the CAM bit (PWMCONx<2>) is set.

When operating in Center-Aligned mode, the effective PWM period is twice the value specified

in the PHASEx registers, because the independent time base counter in the PWM generator is

counting up and then counting down during the cycle. The up/down count sequence doubles the

effective PWM cycle period. This mode is used in many motor control applications.

Note: The Independent Time Base mode (ITB = 1) must be enabled to use the

Center-Aligned mode. If ITB = 0, the CAM bit is ignored.

14.5.6 Master Time Base/Synchronous Time Base

Figure 14-5 illustrates the PWM functionality in the master time base.

Figure 14-5: Master Time Base Block Diagram

Some of the common tasks of the master time base are as follows:

• Generates time reference for all the PWM generators

• Generates special event ADC trigger and interrupt

• Supports synchronization with the external SYNC signal (SYNCIx)

• Supports synchronization with external devices using SYNCOx signal

The master time base for a PWM generator is set by loading a 16-bit value into the Primary

Master Time Base Period register (PTPER). In Master Time Base mode, the value in the

PHASEx and SPHASEx registers provides phase shift between the PWM outputs.

The clock for

the PWM timer (PMTMR) is derived from the system clock.

14.5.7 Time Base Synchronization

The master time base can be synchronized with the external synchronization signal via the

master time base synchronization signal (SYNCIx). The synchronization source (SYNCIx) can

be selected using the SYNCSRC<1:0> bits (PTCON<5:4>). The SYNCPOL bit (PTCON<9>)

selects the rising or falling edge of the synchronization pulse, which resets the timer (PMTMR).

The external synchronization feature can be enabled or disabled with the SYNCEN bit

(PTCON<7>). The pulse-width of the external synchronization signal (SYNCIx) must be more

than the period of the post-scaled input clock to ensure reliable detection by the master time

base.

Section 14. High-Speed PWM

High-Speed PWM

An external device can also be synchronized with the master time base using the

Synchronization Output (SYNCOx) signal. The SYNCOx signal is generated when the PTPER

devices reliably sense the signals. The polarity of the SYNCOx signal is determined by the

SYNCPOL bit (PTCON<9>). The SYNCOx signal can be enabled or disabled by selecting the

SYNCOEN bit (PTCON<8>).

The advantage of synchronization is that it ensures the beat frequencies are not generated when

multiple power controllers are in use.

Example 14-3: Synchronizing Master Time Base with External Signal

Example 14-4: Synchronizing External Device with Master Time Base

14.5.8 Special Event Trigger

The High-Speed PWM module has a master Special Event Trigger that can be used for

synchronization of analog-to-digital conversions with the PWM time base. The analog-to-digital

sampling and conversion time can be programmed to occur within the PWM period. The Special

Event Trigger allows the user-assigned application to minimize the delay between the time the

conversion results are acquired and the time the duty cycle value is updated. The Special Event

Trigger is based on the master time base.

The master Special Event Trigger value is loaded into the PWM Special Event Compare register

(SEVTCMP). In addition, the SEVTPS<3:0> bits (PTCON<3:0>), control the Special Event

Trigger operation. To generate a trigger to the ADC module, the value in the PTPER register is

compared with the value in the SEVTCMP register. The master Special Event Trigger has a

postscaler that allows a 1:1 to 1:16 postscaler ratio. The postscaler is configured by writing to the

SEVTPS<3:0> bits (PTCON<3:0>).

The Special Event Trigger pulses are always generated during the following instances:

• On a match condition regardless of the status of the Special Event Interrupt Enable bit

(SEIEN)

• If the compare value in the SEVTCMP register is a value from zero to a maximum value of

the PTPER register

Note 1: The SYNCIx pulse should be greater than the PWM period value.

2: The SYNCIx pulse should be continuous with a minimum pulse-width of 200 ns.

3: The PWM cycles are expected to be distorted for the first two SYNCIx pulses.

4: The period value should be a multiple of 8 (Least Significant 3 bits set to ‘0’) for the

external synchronization to work in the Push-Pull mode.

5: There is a delay from the input of a SYNC signal until the internal time base counter

is Reset. This will be approximately 2.5 * prescale clock period.

6: The External Time Base Synchronization must not be used with phase shifted PWM

as the synchronization signal may not maintain the phase relationships between the

multiple PWM channels.

7: The External Time Base Synchronization cannot be used in Independent Time

Base mode.

/* Synchronizing Master Time Base with External Signal */

PTCONbits.SYNCSRC = 0; /* Select SYNC1 input as synchronizing source */

PTCONbits.SYNCPOL = 0; /* Rising edge of SYNC1 resets the PWM Timer */

PTCONbits.SYNCEN = 1; /* Enable external synchronization */

/* Synchronizing External Device with Master Time Base */

PTCONbits.SYNCPOL = 0; /* SYNCO output is active-high */

PTCONbits.SYNCOEN = 1; /* Enable SYNCO output */

dsPIC33E/PIC24E Family Reference Manual

The Special Event Trigger output postscaler is cleared on these events:

• Any device Reset

• When PTEN = 0

Example 14-5: ADC Special Event Trigger Configuration

14.5.9 Independent PWM Time Base

Figure 14-6 illustrates the PWM functionality in the independent time base for devices that

support this feature.

Figure 14-6: Independent Time Base Block Diagrams

Each PWM generator can operate on:

• A shared time base for both the primary (PWMxH) and secondary (PWMxL) outputs

The independent time base periods for both PWM outputs (PWMxH and PWMxL) are

provided by the value in PWM Primary Phase Shift register (PHASEx).

• A dedicated time base for each of the primary (PWMxH) and secondary (PWMxL) outputs

The independent time base period for PWMxH output is provided by the value in the PWM

Primary Phase Shift register (PHASEx). The independent time base period for PWMxL

output is provided by the value in the PWM Secondary Phase Shift (SPHASEx) register.

The PHASEx and SPHASEx registers provide the time period value for the PWMx outputs

(PWMxH and PWMxL) in Independent Time Base mode.

14.6.2 Complementary PWM Mode

In Complementary PWM mode, the PWM output PWMxH is the complement of the PWMxL

output. Some typical applications of Complementary PWM mode are provided in

14.16 “Application Information”.

Figure 14-15 through Figure 14-22 and Example 14-14 through Example 14-21 show the PWM

outputs in multiple operating modes when the module operates in Complementary PWM mode.

14.6.3 Redundant PWM Output Mode

In Redundant PWM Output mode, the High-Speed PWM module has the ability to provide two

copies of a single-ended PWM output signal per PWM pin pair (PWMxH, PWMxL). This mode

uses the PDCx register to specify the duty cycle. In this output mode, the two PWM output pins

will provide the same PWM signal unless the user-assigned application specifies an override

value. The following eight figures and examples show the Redundant PWM Output mode in

multiple operating modes.

14.6.4 True Independent PWM Output Mode

In True Independent PWM Output mode (PMOD = 11), the PWM outputs (PWMxH and PWMxL)

can have different duty cycles. The PDCx register specifies the duty cycle for the PWMxH output,

whereas the SDCx register specifies the duty cycle for the PWMxL output. In addition, the

PWMxH and PWMxL outputs can either have different periods or they can be phase-shifted

relative to each other.

• When ITB = 1, the PHASEx register specifies the PWM period for the PWMxH output and

the SPHASEx register specifies the PWM period for the PWMxL output

• When ITB = 0, the PHASEx register specifies the phase shift for the PWMxH output and

the SPHASEx register specifies the phase shift for the PWMxL output

14.7 PWM GENERATOR

This section describes the functionality of the PWM generator.

14.7.1 PWM Period

The PWM period value defines the switching frequency of the PWM pulses. The PWM period

value can be controlled by the Primary Master Time Base Period register (PTPER), or by the

Independent Time Period PHASEx and SPHASEx registers for the respective primary and

secondary PWM outputs, if available.

The PWM period value can be controlled in two ways when the High-Speed PWM module

operates in Independent Time Base mode:

• In some modes, the PHASEx register controls the PWM period value of the PWM output

signals (PWMxH and PWMxL)

• In True Independent Output mode, the PHASEx register controls the PWM period value of

the PWMxH output signal, and the SPHASEx register controls the PWM period value of the

PWMxL output signal

Refer to 14.6 “PWM Operating Modes”, for detailed information about various PWM modes and

their features.

When the High-Speed PWM module operates in Master Time Base mode, the PTPER register

holds the 16-bit value, which specifies the counting period for the PMTMR timer. When the

High-Speed PWM module operates in Independent Time Base mode, the PHASEx and

SPHASEx registers hold the 16-bit value that sp riod for the PTMRx andecifies the counting pe

STMRx timer, respectively. The timer period can be updated at any time by the user-assigned

application. The PWM time period (PTPER) in Edge-Aligned PWM mode (CAM bit

(PWMCONx<2>) is set to ‘0’) can be determined by using the Equation 14-1.

Equation 14-1: PERIOD, PHASEx and SPHASEx Register Value Calculation for

Edge-Aligned Mode

Based on Equation 14-1, while operating in the master time base (PTPER register) or the

independent time base (PHASEx and SPHASEx registers), the register value to be loaded is

shown in Example 14-38.

Example 14-38: PWM Time Period Calculation for Edge-Aligned Mode

dsPIC33E/PIC24E Family Reference Manual

The PWM time period (PHASEx or SPHASEx) in Center-Aligned mode (CAM = 1 and ITB = 1),

can be determined using Equation 14-2. The PTPER register does not represent the period in

Center-Aligned mode, since this mode requires independent time bases, which are enabled by

setting ITB = 1.

Equation 14-2: PHASEx or SPHASEx Register Value Calculation in Center-Aligned

Mode

Based on Equation 14-2, when operating in independent time bases (PHASEx and SPHASEx

registers), the register value to be loaded is shown in Example 14-39.

Example 14-39: PWM Time Period Calculation Example in Center-Aligned Mode

The maximum available PWM period resolution is TOSC for Edge-Aligned mode and TOSC * 2 in

Center-Aligned mode. The PCLKDIV<2:0> bits (PTCON2<2:0>), determine the type of PWM

clock. The timer/counter is enabled or disabled by setting or clearing the PTEN bit

(PTCON<15>). The PMTMR timer can also be cleared using the PTEN bit.

14.7.2 PWM Duty Cycle Control

The duty cycle determines the period of time the PWM output should remain in the active state.

Each duty cycle register allows a 16-bit duty cycle value to be specified. The duty cycle values

can be updated at any time by setting the IUE bit (PWMCONx<0>). If the IUE bit is ‘0’, the active

The Master Duty Cycle register (MDC) enables multiple PWM generators to share a common

duty cycle register.The MDC register has an important role in Master Time Base mode.

In addition, each PWM generator has a Primary Duty Cycle register (PDCx) and on certain

devices, a Secondary Duty Cycle register (SDCx) that provides separate duty cycles to each

PWM.

14.7.2.1 MASTER DUTY CYCLE (MDC)

The master time base generator controls the master duty cycle. The MDCS bit (PWMCONx<8>),

determines whether the duty cycle of each of the PWMxH and PWMxL outputs are controlled by

the PWM Master Duty Cycle register (MDC) or the PWM Primary Duty Cycle (PDCx) and PWM

Secondary Duty Cycle (SDCx) registers.

The MDC register enables sharing of the common duty cycle register among multiple PWM

generators and saves the CPU overhead required in updating multiple duty cycle registers.

14.7.2.2 PRIMARY DUTY CYCLE (PDCx)

The independent time base controls the primary duty cycle when the ITB bit (PWMCONx<9>) is

set to ‘1’. The PDCx register is an input register that provides the duty cycle value for the primary

PWM output signal (PWMxH).

the duty cycle value for the secondary PWM output signal (PWMxL).

Figure 14-40: Secondary Duty Cycle Comparison

The duty cycle can be determined by using Equation 14-3.

Equation 14-3: MDC, PDCx and SDCx Calculation

Based on Equation 14-3, when the master, independent primary, or independent secondary duty

cycle is used, the register value SDCx register, respectively.is loaded in the MDC, PDCx, or

Note: The SDCx register is not available on all devices. Refer to the “High-Speed PWM”

chapter of the specific device data sheet for availability.

Note 1: If a duty cycle value is greater than or equal to the period value, a signal will have

a duty cycle of 100 percent.

2: When dead time compensation is disabled if PDCx does not adhere to (PDCx >

((ALTDTRx/2) -1)) the PWMxH will be constantly high.

3: If PDCx > (ALTDTRx + DTRx - 1) condition is not satisfied it could result in one or

both of the below:

14.7.3 Dead Time Generation

The dead time refers to a programmable period of time (specified by the PWM Dead Time

output from being asserted until its complementary PWM signal has been deasserted for the

specified time.

The High-Speed PWM module has four dead time control units. Each dead time control unit has

its own dead time value.

Dead time generation can be provided when any of the PWM I/O pin pairs are operating in

Complementary Output mode. Many power converter circuits require dead time because power

transistors cannot switch instantaneously. To prevent current shoot-through, some amount of

time must be provided between the turn-off event of one PWM output and the turn-on event of

the other PWM output in a complementary pair or the turn-on event of the other transistor.

The High-Speed PWM module provides positive as well as negative dead time. The positive

dead time prevents overlapping of PWM outputs. Positive dead time generation is available for

all output modes. Positive dead time circuitry works by blanking (gating) the leading edge of the

PWM signal. Negative dead time is the forced overlap of the PWMxH and PWMxL signals.

Negative dead time works when the extended time period of the currently active PWM output

overlaps the PWM output that is just asserted. Certain converter techniques require a limited

amount of current shoot-through.

Negative dead time is specified only for complementary PWM signals. Negative dead time does

not apply to user or current-limit, or fault overrides. This mode can be implemented by using

phase shift values in the PHASEx registers that shifts the PWM outputs so that the outputs

overlap another PWM signal from a different PWM output channel. Negative dead time is only

implemented for Edge-Aligned mode (CAM = 0).

The dead time logic acts as a gate and allows an asserted PWM signal or an override value to

propagate to the output. The dead time logic never asserts a PWM output on its own initiative.

The dead time feature can be disabled for each PWM generator. The dead time functionality is

controlled by the DTC<1:0> bits (PWMCONx<7:6>).

14.7.4 Dead Time Generators

Each complementary output pair for the High-Speed PWM module has a 12-bit down counter to

produce the dead time insertion. Each dead time unit has a rising and falling edge detector

connected to the duty cycle comparison output. Depending on whether the edge is rising or

falling, one of the transitions on the complementary outputs is delayed until the associated dead

time timer generates the specific delay period.

The dead time logic monitors the rising and falling edges of the PWM signals. The dead time

counters reset when the associated PWM signal is inactive, and start counting when the PWM

signal is active. Any selected signal source that provides the PWM output signal is processed by

the dead time logic.

The dead time can be determined using the formula shown in Equation 14-6.

14.7.4.1 POSITIVE DEAD TIME

The Positive Dead Time mode describes a period of time when both PWMxH and PWMxL

outputs are not asserted. This mode is useful when the application designer needs to allocate

time to disable some power transistors prior to enabling other transistors. This is similar to a

“Break before Make” switch. When Positive Dead Time mode is specified in Edge-Aligned PWM

mode (CAM = 0), the DTRx register specifies the dead time for the PWMxH output, and the

ALTDTRx register specifies the dead time for the PWMxL output. When Center-Aligned mode is

enabled (CAM = 1), the ALTDTR register specifies the dead time, while the DTRx register is

ignored. These two modes are shown in Figure 14-43 and Figure 14-44.

Figure 14-43: Positive Dead Time in Edge-Aligned Mode and Complementary Mode

Figure 14-44: Positive Dead Time in Center-Aligned Mode and Complementary Mode

14.7.4.2 NEGATIVE DEAD TIME

The Negative Dead Time mode describes a period of time when both PWMxH and PWMxL

outputs are asserted. This mode is useful in current fed topologies that need to provide a path

for current to flow when the power transistors are switching. This is similar to a “Make before

Break” switch. When Negative Dead Time mode is specified in Edge-Aligned mode, the DTRx

specifies the negative dead time for the PWMxH output. When Center-Aligned mode is enabled

(CAM = 1), negative dead time is not supported, and the ALTDTRx and DTRx registers are

ignored. This mode is shown in Figure 14-45.

14.7.4.3 DEAD TIME COMPENSATION

When dead time is applied to the PWM signals in AC motor control applications, the transistors

are disabled. During dead time, motor current continues to flow through the free-wheeling

diodes, but the applied voltage is zero. The zero applied voltage during dead time causes a

distortion of the desired voltage waveform and subsequently a motor current distortion. This

distortion causes torque variations that can affect the stability of the control system, and the

performance of the motor.

Dead Time Compensation mode enables an external signal (DTCMPx) to modify the duty cycle

to overcome motor current distortion caused by the dead time.

When Dead Time Compensation mode is selected via the DTC<1:0> bits (PWMCONx<7:6>), an

external input signal (DTCMPx) will cause the value in the DTRx register to be added to, or

subtracted from, the duty cycle specified by the PDCx or MDC registers. The ALTDTRx register

will specify the dead time for both the PWMxH and PWMxL output signals.

Dead time compensation is available only for Complementary PWM output mode with Positive

Dead Time mode. Negative dead times or any other PWM output mode are not supported by

Dead Time Compensation mode.

The dead time compensation external input control signal, DTCMPx, is sampled at the beginning

of each dead time period. This sampling process ensures that the control signal does not change

midway through the dead time generation process. The DTCMPx signal determines whether the

duty cycle will be increased or decreased by the amount specified in the DTRx register.

14.7.5 Dead Time Ranges

The dead time duration provided by each dead time unit is set by specifying an unsigned value

in the DTRx and ALTDTRx registers. At maximum operating clock frequency with a TOSC duty

cycle resolution, the dead time resolution is TOSC (7.14 ns at 140 MHz of FOSC). The maximum

dead time value is (214 – 1)TOSC = 116.9 µs when operating at 140 MHz FOSC.

14.7.6 Dead Time Distortion

For duty cycle values near 0% or 100%, the PWM signal becomes nonlinear if dead time is

active. For any duty cycle value less than the dead time, the PWM output is zero. For duty

cycle values greater than “100% – dead time”, the PWM output is the same as if the duty cycle

is “100% – dead time”.

14.7.7 Dead Time Insertion in Center-Aligned Mode

While using Center-Aligned mode and complementary PWM, only the ALTDTRx register should

be used for dead time insertion. The dead time is inserted in the PWM waveform as shown in

Figure 14-50.

14.7.8 Phase Shift

Phase shift is the relative offset between PWMxH or PWMxL with respect to the master time

base. In Independent Output mode, the PHASEx register determines the relative phase shift

between PWMxH and the master time base. The SPHASEx register determines the relative

phase shift between PWMxL and the master time base. The contents of the PHASEx register are

used as an initialization value for the PTMRx register, and the SPHASEx register contents are

used as an initialization value for the STMRx register.

Figure 14-51 and Figure 14-52 provide example waveforms for phase shifting in Complementary

mode and Independent Output mode, respectively.

Figure 14-51: Phase Shifting (Complementary Mode)

Figure 14-52: Phase Shifting (Independent Output Mode)

In addition, there are two shadow registers for the PHASEx and SPHASEx registers that are

updated whenever new values are written by the user-assigned application. These values are

transferred from the shadow registers to the PHASEx and SPHASEx registers on an

independent time base Reset. The actual application of these phase offsets on the PWM output

will occur on a master time base Reset.

Note: The SPHASEx register is not available on all devices. Refer to the “High-Speed

PWM” chapter in the specific device data sheet for availability.

PHASEx or SPHASEx value greater than the PERIOD value will be treated as a value equal to

the Period. It is not possible to create phase shifts greater than the Period.

14.8 PWM TRIGGER

For the ADC module, the TRIGx register specifies the triggering point for the PWMxH and

PWMxL outputs, respectively. An ADC trigger signal will be generated when the independent

time base counter (PTMRx) register value matches with the specified TRIGx register value.

The TRGDIV<3:0> bits in the TRGCONx register act as a postscaler for the TRIGx register to

generate ADC triggers. This allows the trigger signal to the ADC to be generated once for every

1, 2, 3.... and 16 trigger events. These bits specify how frequently the ADC trigger is generated.

Each PWM generator has TRGSTRT<5:0> bits (TRGCONx<5:0>) that specify how many PWM

cycles to wait before generating the first ADC trigger.

Figure 14-54 shows the logic for ADC triggering by the High-Speed PWM module.

Figure 14-54: PWM Trigger for Analog-to-Digital Conversion

Depending on the settings of the TRGDIV<3:0> and TRGSTRT<5:0> bits, triggers are generated

at different PWM intervals, as shown in Figure 14-55 through Figure 14-62.

The trigger divider allows the user-assigned application to tailor the ADC sample rates to the

requirements of the control loop.

If ADC triggers are generated at a rate faster than the rate that the ADC can process, the

operation may result in loss of some samples. However, the user-assigned application can

ensure that the time it provides is enough to complete an ADC operation within a single PWM

cycle.

High-Speed PWM

The trigger pulse is generated regardless of the state of the TRGIEN bit (PWMCONx<10>). If the

TRGIEN bit (PWMCONx<10>) is set to ‘1’, an interrupt request is generated.

Example 14-46: Independent PWM ADC Triggering

Note 1: The TRGSTAT bit is only cleared by clearing the TRGIEN bit. It is not cleared

automatically.

2: Dynamic triggering can show some advantages where multiple PWM channels are

used in applications, such as IPFC and multi-phase buck regulators. The TRIGx

values can be changed based on the PWM period, duty, load current, etc. This is

to ensure that the trigger points are separated from the rise and fall instances of the

PWM channel.

Figure 14-68: Effect of Phase Shift on PWM Triggers

When phase shifting the PWM signal, the PWM timer value is updated to reflect the new phase

value. There is a possibility of missing trigger events when changing the phase from a smaller

value to a larger value. The user-assigned application must ensure that this does not affect any

control loop execution.

14.9 PWM INTERRUPTS

The High-Speed PWM module can generate interrupts based on internal timing signals or

external signals through the current-limit and fault inputs. The primary time base module can

generate an interrupt request when a specified event occurs. Each PWM generator module

provides its own interrupt request signal to the interrupt controller. The interrupt for each PWM

generator is a Boolean OR of the trigger event interrupt request, the current-limit input event, or

the fault input event for that module.

Besides one interrupt request signal per PWM generator, the interrupt controller receives an

interrupt request signal from the primary time base on special events.

The interrupt requests coming from each PWM generator are called Individual PWM Interrupts.

The Interrupt Request (IRQ) for each one of these individual interrupts can come from the PWM

individual trigger, PWM fault logic, or PWM current-limit logic. Each PWM generator has the

PWM interrupt flag in an IFSx register. When an interrupt request is generated by any of the

above sources, the PWM interrupt flag associ M generator is set.ated with the selected PW

If more than one IRQ source is enabled, the interrupt source is determined using the

user-assigned application by checking the TRGSTAT, FLTSTAT and CLSTAT bits in the

PWMCONx register.

To configure interrupts, the application software should first clear the interrupt flags, enable the

interrupts (see the PTCON ( ), STCON (Register 14-1 Register 14-4), and PWMCONx

(Register 14-12) registers), and finally, enable the PWM module.

14.9.1 PWM Time Base Interrupts

In each PWM generator, the High-Speed PWM module can generate interrupts based on the

master time base and/or the individual time base. The PWM Special Event Compare register

(SEVTCMP) specifies timer based interrupts for the primary time base, and the TRIGx registers

specify timer based interrupts for the individual time bases.

The primary time base special event interrupt is enabled via the SEIEN bit (PTCON<11>). In

each PWM generator, the individual time base interrupts generated by the trigger logic are

controlled by the TRGIEN bit (PWMCON<10>).

Note: To enable PWM interrupts, use the initialization procedure defined in Section 6.

“Interrupts” (DS70600) of the “dsPIC33E/PIC24E Family Reference Manual”,

which is available from the Microchip Web site (www.microchip.com).

Note: When an appropriate match condition occurs, the Special Event Trigger signal and

the individual PWM trigger pulses to the ADC are always generated regardless of

the setting of their respective interrupt enable bits.

14.10 PWM FAULT PINS

The key functions of the PWM fault input pins are as follows:

• Each PWM generator can select its own fault input source from a selection of up to eight

fault and current-limit pins

• Each PWM generator has FLTSRC<4:0> bits (FCLCONx<7:3>). These bits specify the

source for its fault input signal.

• Each PWM generator has the FLTIEN bit (PWMCONx<12>). This bit enables the

generation of fault interrupt requests.

• Each PWM generator has the FLTPOL bit (FCLCONx<2>). This bit selects the active state

of the selected fault input.

• Upon occurrence of a Fault condition, the PWMxH and PWMxL outputs can be forced to

one of the following states:

- If the IFLTMOD bit is enabled, the FLTDAT<1:0> (High/Low) bits (IOCONx<5:4>)

provides data values to be assigned to the PWMxH and PWMxL outputs

- In Fault mode, the FLTDAT<1:0> (High/Low) bits provide the data values to be

assigned to the PWMxH and PWMxL outputs

The following list describes major functions of the fault input pin:

• A fault can override the PWM outputs. The FLTDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<5:4>) can have a

value of either ‘0’ or ‘1’. If FLTDAT is set to ‘0’, it is processed asynchronously to enable the

immediate shutdown of the associated power transistors in the application circuit. If

FLTDAT is set to ‘1’, it is processed by the dead time logic and then applied to the PWM

outputs.

• The fault signals can generate interrupts. The FLTIEN bit (PWMCONx<12>) controls the

fault interrupt signal generation. The user-assigned application can specify interrupt signal

generation even if the FLTMOD bits disable the fault override function. This allows the fault

input signal to be used as a general purpose external interrupt request signal.

• The fault input signal that can be used as a trigger signal to the ADC, which initiates an

ADC conversion process. The ADC trigger signals are always active regardless of the state

of the High-Speed PWM module, the FLTMOD bits, or the FLTIEN bit.

The FLTx pins are normally active-high. The FLTPOL bit (FCLCONx<2>), when set to ‘1’, inverts

the selected fault input signal; therefore, these pins are set as active-low.

The fault pins are also readable through the port I/O logic when the High-Speed PWM module is

enabled. This allows the user-assigned application to poll the state of the fault pins in software.

14.10.1 Class B Fault

Certain devices incorporate a fault that has been implemented with Class B safety features,

which is known as the Class B Fault. This fault operates in a similar manner as other faults, with

the exception that on any type of reset, the PWM module maintains ownership of that pin. Refer

to the “High-Speed PWM” chapter in the specific device data sheet for the fault that incorporates

this feature.

At reset, this fault is enabled in Latched mode to guarantee the fail-safe power-up of the

application. The application software must clear this fault before the PWM module can be

enabled. To clear the Fault condition, this fault pin must first be pulled high externally, or the

internal pull-up resistor in the CNPUx register can be enabled. Once the Fault condition is

cleared, the PWM module can be enabled, and if desired, the fault can be disabled.

Note: If present on the device, the Class B Fault is enabled on any type of reset. The user

application must clear this fault before the PWM module can be enabled.

dsPIC33E/PIC24E Family Reference Manual

Figure 14-74: PWM Fault Control Module Block Diagram

14.10.2 PWM Fault Generated by the Analog Comparator

The dsPIC33E/PIC24E devices support virtual (internal) connections to the output of the

comparator modules CxOUT (see Figure 26-1 in Section 26.0 “Comparator Module”

(DS70357).

Virtual connections provide a simple way of inter-peripheral connection without utilizing a

physical pin. For example, by setting the FLT1R<6:0> bits of the RPINR12 register to the value

of 'b0000001, the output of the Analog Comparator, C1OUT, will be connected to the PWM

Fault 1 input, which allows the Analog Comparator to trigger PWM faults without the use of an

actual physical pin on the device.

Example 14-47 shows the configuration of the Analog Comparator 1 as one of the fault sources

to the PWM that is connected to the fault input pin 1.

14.10.3 Fault Interrupts

The FLTIENx bit (PWMCONx<12>) determine whether an interrupt will be generated when the

FLTx input is asserted high. The FLTDAT<1:0> (High/Low) bits supply the data values to be

assigned to the PWMxH and PWMxL pins in case of a fault.

The PWM Fault states are available on the FLTSTAT bit (PWMCONx<15>). The FLTSTAT bit

displays the fault IRQ latch. If fault interrupts are not enabled, the FLTSTAT bit displays the status

of the selected FLTx input in positive logic format. When the fault input pins are not used in

association with a PWM generator, these pins can be used as general purpose I/O or interrupt

input pins.

In addition to its operation as the PWM logic, the fault pin logic can also operate as an external

interrupt pin. If the faults are not allowed to affect the PWM generators in the FCLCONx register,

the fault pin can be used as a general purpose interrupt pin.

14.10.3.1 FAULT INPUT PIN MODES

The fault input pin has two modes of operation:

• Latched mode: In Latched mode, the PWM outputs follow the states defined in the FLTDAT

bits in the IOCONx registers when the fault pin is asserted. The PWM outputs remain in this

state until the fault pin is deasserted and the corresponding interrupt flag has been cleared in

software. When both of these actions have occurred, the PWM outputs return to normal

operation at the beginning of the next PWM cycle boundary. If the FLTSTAT bit

(PWMCONx<15>) is cleared before the Fault condition ends, the High-Speed PWM module

waits until the fault pin is no longer asserted. Software can clear the FLTSTAT bit by writing ‘0’

to the FLTIEN bit in the PWMCONx register.

• Cycle-by-Cycle mode: In Cycle-by-Cycle mode, the PWM outputs remain in the deasserted

PWM state as long as the fault input pin remains asserted. In Complementary PWM Output

mode, PWMxH is low (deasserted) and PWMxL is high (asserted). After the fault pin is driven

high, the PWM outputs return to normal operation at the beginning of the following PWM

cycle.

The operating mode for each fault input pin is selected by using the FLTMOD bits

(FCLCONx<1:0>).

14.10.4 Fault Entry

With respect to the device clock signals, the PWM pins always provide asynchronous response

to the fault input pins. Therefore, if ‘0’ is deasserted, the FLTDAT bit will immediately deassert

the associated PWM output, and if the specified FLTDAT bits are asserted (set to ‘1’), the

FLTDAT bits are processed by the dead time logic prior to being output as a PWM signal.

Refer to 14.12.4 “Fault/Current-Limit Override and Dead Time Logic”, for more information

on data sensitivity and behavior in response to current-limit or fault events.

14.10.5 Fault Exit

After a Fault condition has ended, the PWM signals must be restored at a PWM cycle boundary

to ensure proper synchronization of PWM signal edges and manual signal overrides. The next

PWM cycle begins when the PTMR value is zero.

If Cycle-by-Cycle Fault mode is selected, the fault is automatically reset on every PWM cycle. No

additional coding is needed to exit the Fault condition.

For the Latched Fault mode, however, the following sequence must be followed to exit the Fault

condition:

1. Poll the PWM fault source to determine, if the fault signal has been deasserted.

2. If the PWM fault interrupt is not enabled, skip the following sub-steps and proceed to

step 3. If the PWM fault interrupt is enabled, perform the following sub-steps, and then

proceed to step 4.

a) Complete the PWM fault Interrupt Service Routine.

b) Disable the PWM fault interrupt by clearing the FLTIEN bit (PWMCONx <12>).

c) Enable the PWM fault interrupt by setting FLTMOD<1:0> (FCLCONx <1:0>) = 0b00.

3. Disable PWM faults by setting FLTMOD<1:0> (FCLCONx <1:0>) = 0b11.

4. Enable the latched PWM Fault mode by setting FLTMOD<1:0> (FCLCONx <1:0>) = 0b00.

dsPIC33E/PIC24E Family Reference Manual

14.10.6 Fault Exit with PMTMR Disabled

There is a special case for exiting a Fault condition when the PWM time base is disabled

(PTEN = 0). When a fault input is programmed for Cycle-by-Cycle mode, the PWM outputs are

immediately restored to normal operation when the fault input pin is deasserted. The PWM

outputs should return to their default programmed values (the time base is disabled, so there is

no reason to wait for the beginning of the next PWM cycle). When a fault input is programmed

for Latched mode, the PWM outputs are restored immediately when the fault input pin is

deasserted and the FSTAT bit has been cleared in software.

14.10.7 Fault Pin Software Control

The fault pin can be controlled manually in software. Since the fault input is shared with a GPIO

port pin, this pin can be configured as an output by clearing the corresponding TRIS bit. When

the port bit for the pin is set, the fault input will be activated.

14.10.8 PWM Current-Limit Pins

The key functions of the PWM current-limit pins are as follows:

• Each PWM generator can select its own current-limit input source with up to eight Fault and

current-limit pins. To configure the analog comparator as one of the current-limit sources,

refer to 14.10.2 “PWM Fault Generated by the Analog Comparator”.

• Each PWM generator has control bits, CLSRC<4:0> (FCLCONx<14:10>). These bits

specify the source for its current-limit input signal.

• Each PWM generator has a corresponding CLIEN bit (PWMCONx<11>). This bit enables

the generation of current-limit interrupt requests.

• Each PWM generator has an associated CLPOL bit (FCLCONx<9>).

• Upon occurrence of current-limit condition, outputs of the PWMxH and PWMxL generator

change to one of the following states:

- If the Independent Fault Mode enable bit (IFLTMOD) is set, the CLDAT<1:0> bits are

not used for override functions

- If the Independent Fault Mode Enable bit (IFLTMOD) is clear, and the Current-Limit

Mode Enable bit (CLMOD) is set, enabling the current-limit function, the CLDAT<1:0>

bits (High/Low) supplies the data values to be assigned to the PWMxH and PWMxL

outputs when a current-limit is active

The major functions of the current-limit pin are as follows:

• A current-limit can override the PWM outputs. The CLDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<3:2>) can

have a value of either ‘0’ or ‘1’. If CLDAT is set to ‘0’, it is processed asynchronously to

enable immediate shutdown of the associated power transistors in the application circuit. If

CLDAT is set to ‘1’, it is processed by the dead time logic and then applied to the PWM

outputs.

• The current-limit signals can generate interrupts. The CLIEN bit (PWMCONx<11>) controls

the current-limit interrupt signal generation. The user-assigned application can specify

interrupt generation even if the CLMOD bit (FCLCONx<8>) disables the current-limit

override function. This allows the current-limit input signal to be used as a general purpose

external interrupt request signal.

• The current-limit input signal that can be used he ADC, which initiates as a trigger signal to t

an ADC conversion process. The ADC trigger signals are always active regardless of the

state of the High-Speed PWM module, the FLTMOD bits, or the FLTIEN bit.

• A current-limit signal resets the time base for the affected PWM generator when the

following occurs:

- The CLMOD bit (FCLCONx<8>) for the PWM generator is ‘0’

- The XPRES bit (PWMCONx<1>) is ‘1’

- The PWM generator is in the Independent Time Base mode (ITB = 1)

This behavior is called Current Reset mode, which is used in some Power Factor

Correction (PFC) applications.

High-Speed PWM

Figure 14-75: PWM Current-Limit Control Circuit Logic Diagram

14.10.9 Current-Limit Interrupts

The state of the PWM current-limit conditions is available on the CLSTAT bit (PWMCONx<14>).

The CLSTAT bits display the current-limit IRQ flag if the CLIEN bit is set. If current-limit interrupts

are not enabled, the CLSTAT bits display the status of the selected current-limit inputs in positive

logic format. When the current-limit input pin associated with a PWM generator is not used, these

pins can be used as general purpose I/O or interrupt input pins.

The current-limit pins are normally active-high. If set to ‘1’, the CLPOL bit (FCLCONx<9>) invert

the selected current-limit input signal and drives the signal into active-low state.

The interrupts generated by the selected current-limit signals are combined to create a single

interrupt request signal. This signal is sent to the interrupt controller, which has its own interrupt

vector, interrupt flag bit, interrupt enable bit, and interrupt priority bits associated with it.

The fault pins are also readable through the port I/O logic when the High-Speed PWM module is

enabled. This capability allows the user-assigned application to poll the state of the fault pins in

software.

14.10.10 Simultaneous PWM Faults and Current-Limits

The current-limit override function, if enabled and active, forces the PWMxH and PWMxL pins to

read the values specified by the CLDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<3:2>), unless the fault function is

enabled and active. If the selected fault input is active, the PWMxH and PWMxL outputs read the

values specified by the FLTDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<5:4>).

14.11 SPECIAL FEATURES

The following special features are available in the High-Speed PWM module:

• Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB)

• State Blanking

• Chop mode

• Individual time base capture

• PWM pin swapping

• PWM output pin control and override

• PWM immediate update

14.11.1 Leading-Edge Blanking (LEB)

Each PWM generator supports LEB of the current-limit and fault inputs configured using the

LEBCONx and LEBDLYx bits in the Leading-Edge Blanking Control registers. The purpose of

LEB is to mask the transients that occur on the application printed circuit board when the power

transistors are turned ON and OFF.

The LEB bits are edge-sensitive. These bits support the blanking (ignoring) of the current-limit

and fault inputs for a period of 0 to (4095 * T OSC) following any specified rising or falling edge of

the PWMxH and PWMxL signals.

Equation 14-7: Leading-Edge Blanking Calculation

In high-speed switching applications, switches (such as MOSFETs and IGBTs) typically generate

very large transients. These transients can cause measurement errors. The LEB function

enables the user-assigned application to ignore the expected transients caused by the

MOSFETs/IGBTs switching that occurs near the edges of the PWM output signals.

The PHR, PHF, PLR and PLF bits of the LEBCONx register select the edge type of the PWMxH

and PWMxL signals, which starts the blanking timer. If a new selected edge triggers the LEB

timer while the timer is still active from a previously selected PWM edge, the timer reinitializes

and continues counting.

The FLTLEBEN and CLLEBEN bits enable the application of the blanking period to the selected

fault and current-limit inputs. Figure 14-76 illustrates how an application ignores the fault signal

in the specified blanking period.

14.11.2 State Blanking

Each PWM generator supports state blanking where it is possible to specify conditions where the

current-limit and/or Fault signal is entirely ignored. The BCH, BCL, BPHH, BPHL, BPLH, and

BPLL bits in the LEBCONx registers select any combination of the PWMxH, PWMxL, and CHOP

clock signals as the source of the state blanking function.

The selected Fault or current-limit signal can be ignored when either the PWMxH or PWMxL

output is high or low. In addition, the BLANKSEL<3:0> bits (AUXCONx<11:9>) can be used to

select another PWM generator as the blanking signal source.

Figure 14-77: State Blanking Logic Diagram

14.11.3 Chop Mode

Many power control applications use transistor configurations that require an isolated transistor

gate drive. An example is a three-phase “H-bridge” configuration, where the upper transistors are

at an elevated electrical potential.

One method to achieve an isolated gate drive circuit is to use pulse transformers to couple the

PWM signals across a galvanic isolation barrier to the transistors. Unfortunately, in applications

that use either long duty cycle ratios, or slow PWM frequencies, the transformer’s low-frequency

response is poor. The pulse transformer cannot pass a long duration PWM signal to the isolated

transistor(s). If the PWM signals are “chopped” or gated by a high-frequency clock signal, the

high-frequency alternating signal easily passes through the pulse transformer. The chopping

frequency is typically hundreds or thousands of times higher in frequency as compared to the

PWM frequency. The higher the chopping (carrier) frequency relative to the PWM frequency, the

more the PWM duty cycle resolution is preserved.

High-Speed PWM

Figure 14-78 shows an example waveform of high-speed PWM chopping. In this example, a

20 kHz PWM signal is chopped with a 500 kHz carrier generated by the chop clock.

Figure 14-78: High-Frequency PWM Chopping

The chopping function performs a logical AND operation of the PWM outputs. Because of the

finite period of the chopping clock, the resultant PWM duty cycle resolution is limited to one half

of the chop clock period.

The CHOP register enables the user to specify a chopping clock frequency. The CHOP value

specifies a PWM clock divide ratio. The chop clock divider operates at the PWM clock frequency

specified by the PWM Clock Divider Select bits, PCLKDIV<2:0> (PTCON2<2:0>). The

CHPCLKEN bit (CHOP<15>) enables the chop clock generator.

The CHOPHEN and CHOPLEN bits in the AUXCONx register enable the chop clock to be

applied to the PWM outputs. The CHOPSEL<3:0> bits (AUXCONx<5:2>), select the desired

source for the chop clock. The default selection is the chop clock generator controlled by the

CHOP register. The CHOPSEL<3:0> bits enable the user to select other PWM generators as a

chop clock source.

If the CHOPHEN or CHOPLEN bits are set in the AUXCONx register, the chopping function is

applied to the PWM output signals after the current-limit and fault functions are applied to the

PWM signal. The chop clock signal is available for output from the module for use as an output

signal for the device.

Normally, the chopping clock frequency is higher than the PWM cycle frequency, but new

applications can use chop clock frequencies that are much lower than the PWM cycle frequency.

Figure 14-79 shows a low-frequency PWM chopping waveform. In this figure, another PWM

generator operating at a lower frequency chops or “blanks” the PWM signal.

14.11.4 Individual Time Base Capture

Each PWM generator has a PWMCAPx register that automatically captures the independent

time base counter value when the rising edge of the current-limit signal is detected. This feature

is active only after the application of the LEB function. The user-assigned application should read

the register before the next PWM cycle causes the capture register to be updated again.

The Capture register is used in current mode control applications that use the analog

comparators or external circuitry to terminate the PWM duty cycle or period. By reading the

independent time base value at the current threshold, the user-assigned application can

calculate the slope of the current rise in the inductor. The secondary independent time base does

not have an associated Capture register.

14.11.5 PWM Pin Swapping

The SWAP bit (IOCONx<1>), if set to ‘1’, enables the user-assigned application to connect the

PWMxH signal to the PWMxL pin and the PWMxL signal to the PWMxH pin. If the SWAP bit is

set to ‘0’, the PWM signals are connected to their respective pins.

To perform the swapping function on the PWM cycle boundaries, the OSYNC bit (IOCONx<0>)

must be set. If the user-assigned application changes the state of the SWAP bit (IOCONx<1>)

when the module is operating and the OSYNC bit is clear, the SWAP function will attempt to

execute in the middle of a PWM cycle and the operation will yield unpredictable results.

The SWAP function should be executed prior to the application of dead time. Dead time

processing is required since execution of switch function may enable the transistors in the

user-assigned application that are previously in disable state, possibly causing current

shoot-through.

The SWAP feature is useful for the applications that support multiple switching topologies with a

single application circuit board. It also enables the user-assigned application to change the

transistor modulation scheme in response to changing conditions.

The SWAP function can be implemented by using either of the following methods:

• Dynamic Swapping: In the dynamic swapping, the state of the SWAP bit can be changed

dynamically based on the system response (e.g., Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS)

Power Control)

• Static Swapping: In static swapping, the SWAP bit is set during the start-up configuration

and remains unchanged during the program execution or on-the-fly (e.g., Motor Control)

14.11.5.1 EXAMPLE 1: PIN SWAPPING WITH SMPS POWER CONTROL

The SMPS Power Control example describes dynamic swapping. In power conversion/motor

control application, the transistor modulation technique can be changed between the full-bridge

Zero Voltage Transition (ZVT) and standard full-bridge “on-the-fly” transition to meet different

load and efficiency requirements. As shown in Figure 14-80, the generic full-bridge converter can

operate in Push-Pull mode. The transistors are configured as follows:

• Q1 = Q4

• Q2 = Q3

The generic full-bridge converter can also operate in a ZVT mode. The transistors are configured

as follows:

• Q1 = PWM1H

• Q2 = PWM1L

• Q3 = PWM2H

• Q4 = PWM2L

Figure 14-80: SMPS Power Control

14.11.5.2 EXAMPLE 2: PIN SWAPPING WITH MOTOR CONTROL

The Motor Control example describes static swapping. Consider a generic motor control system,

which is capable of driving two different types of motors, such as DC motors and three-phase AC

induction motors.

Brushed DC motors typically use a full-bridge transistor configuration, as shown in Figure 14-81.

The Q1 and Q4 transistors are driven with similar waveforms, while the Q2 and Q3 transistors

are driven with the complementary waveforms. This is also known as “driving the diagonals”.

Note that the Q5 and Q6 transistors are not used in a brushed DC motor.

The transistors are configured as follows:

• Q1 = PWM1H

• Q2 = PWM1L

• Q3 = PWM2L

• Q4 = PWM2H

Figure 14-81: Motor Contro l

When compared to the DC motor, an AC induction motor uses all the transistors in the full-bridge

configuration. However, the significant difference is that the transistors are now driven as three

half-bridges where the upper transistors are driven by the PWMxH outputs and the lower

transistors are driven by PWMxL outputs.

14.12 PWM OUTPUT PIN CONTROL

If the High-Speed PWM module is enabled, the priority of PWMxH/PWMxL pin ownership from

lowest to highest priority is as follows:

• PWM generator (lowest priority)

• Swap function

• PWM output override logic

• Current-limit override logic

• Fault override logic

• PTEN (GPIO/PWM) ownership (highest priority)

If the High-Speed PWM module is disabled, the GPIO module controls the PWMx pins.

Example 14-50: PWM Output Pin Assignment

Example 14-51: PWM Output Pins State Selection

Example 14-52: Enabling the High-Speed PWM Module

14.12.1 PWM Output Override Logic

The PWM output override feature is used to drive the individual PWM outputs to a desired state

based on system requirements. The output can be driven to both the active state as well as the

inactive state. The High-Speed PWM module override feature has the priority as assigned in the

list above. All control bits associated with the PWM output override function are contained in the

IOCONx register. If the bits, PENH (IOCONx<15>) and PENL (IOCONx<14>) are set, the

High-Speed PWM module controls the PWMx output pins. The PWM Output Override bits allow

the user-assigned application to manually drive the PWM I/O pins to specified logic states,

independent of the duty cycle comparison units.

The OVRDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<7:6>), determine the state of the PWM I/O pins when a

particular output is overridden by the bits, OVRENH (IOCONx<9>) and OVRENL (IOCONx<8>).

The OVRENH and OVRENL bits are active-high control bits. When these bits are set, the

corresponding OVRDAT bit overrides the PWM output from the PWM generator.

When the PWM is in Complementary PWM Output mode, the dead time generator is still active

with overrides. The output overrides and fault overrides generate control signals used by the

dead time unit to set the outputs as requested. Dead time insertion can be performed when the

PWM channels are overridden manually.

14.12.2 Override Priority

When the PENH and PENL bits are set, the following priorities apply to the PWM output:

1. If a fault is active, the Fault Override Data bits (FLTDAT<1:0>) override all other potential

sources and set the PWM outputs.

2. If a fault is not active, but a current-limit event is active, the CLDAT<1:0> bits

(IOCONx<3:2>) are selected as the source to set the PWM outputs.

3. If neither a fault nor a current-limit event is active, and a user Override Enable bit is set to

OVRENH, OVRENL, the associated OVRDAT<1:0> (IOCONx<7:6>) register bits set the

PWM output.

4. If no override conditions are active, the PWM signals generated by the time base and duty

cycle comparator logic are the sources that set the PWM outputs.

/* PWM Output pin control assigned to PWM generator */

IOCON1bits.PENH = 1;

IOCON1bits.PENL = 1;

/* High and Low switches set to active-high state */

IOCON1bits.POLH = 0;

IOCON1bits.POLL = 0;

/* Enable High-Speed PWM module */

PTCONbits.PTEN = 1;

dsPIC33E/PIC24E Family Reference Manual

14.12.3 Override Synchronization

If the OSYNC bit in the PWM I/O Control register (IOCONx<0>) is set, the output overrides

performed by the OVRENH (IOCONx<9>), OVRENL (IOCONx<8>) and OVRDAT<1:0>

(IOCONx<7:6>) bits are synchronized to the PWM time base. Synchronous output overrides

occur when the time base is zero. If PTEN = 0, meaning the PWM timer is not running, writes to

IOCONx take effect on the next T CY boundary.

14.12.4 Fault/Current-Limit Override and Dead Time Logic

In the event of a Fault and Current-Limit condition, the data in the FLTDAT<1:0> bits

(IOCONx<5:4>) or CLDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<3:2>) determine the state of the PWM I/O pins.

If any of the FLTDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<5:4>) or CLDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<3:2>) are ‘0’, the

PWMxH and/or PWMxL outputs are driven inactive immediately, bypassing the dead time logic.

This behavior turns off the PWM outputs immediately without any additional delays. This may aid

many power conversion/motor control applications that require a fast response to fault shutdown

signals to limit circuitry damage and control system accuracy.

If any of the FLTDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<5:4>) or CLDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<3:2>) are ‘1’, the

PWMxH and/or PWMxL outputs are driven active immediately passing through the dead time

logic and, therefore, will be delayed by the specified dead time value. In this case, dead time will

be inserted even if a Fault or Current-Limit condition occurs.

14.12.5 Asserting Outputs Via Current-Limit

In response to a current-limit event, the CLDAT bits (IOCONx<3:2>) can be used to assert the

PWMxH and PWMxL outputs. Such behavior could be used as a current force feature in

response to an external current or voltage measurement that indicates a sudden sharp increase

in the load on the power-converter output. Forcing the PWM to an ON state can be considered

a feed-forward action that allows quick system response to unexpected load increases without

waiting for the digital control loop to respond.

14.12.6 PENx (GPIO/PWM) Ownership

Most of the PWM output pins are normally multiplexed with other GPIO pins. When the Debugger

halts the device, the PWM pins will take the GPIO characteristics that is multiplexed on that pin.

For example, if the PWM1L and PWM1H pins are multiplexed with RE0 and RE1, the

configuration of GPIO pins will decide the PWM output status when halted by the Debugger.

Example 14-53: Code Example

Note: In Complementary PWM Output mode, the dead time generator remains active

under override condition. The output overrides and fault overrides generate control

signals used by the dead time unit to set the outputs as requested, including dead

time. Dead time insertion can be performed when the PWM channels are

overridden manually.

/* PWM output will be pulled to low when the device is halted by the

debugger */

TRISE = 0x0000; RE0 and RE1 configured for an output

LATE = 0x0000; RE0 and RE1 configured as Low output

/* PWM output will be pulled to high when the device is halted by the

debugger */

TRISE = 0x0000; RE0 and RE1 configured for an output

LATE = 0x0003; RE0 and RE1 configured as High output

/* PWM output will be in tri-state when the device is halted by the

debugger */

14.13 IMMEDIATE UPDATE OF PWM DUTY CYCLE

The high performance PWM control-loop application requires a maximum duty cycle update rate.

Setting the Immediate Update Enable bit (IUE) in the PWM Control registers (PWMCONx<0>)

enables this feature. In a closed-loop control application, any delay between the sensing of a

system state and the subsequent output of PWM control signals that drive the application

reduces the loop stability. Setting the IUE bit minimizes the delay between writing the duty cycle

registers and the response of the PWM generators to that change.

The IUE bit enables the user-assi values immediatelygned application to update the duty cycle

after writing to the duty cycle registers, rather than waiting until the end of the time base period.

If the IUE bit is set, an immediate update of the duty cycle is enabled. If the bit is cleared,

immediate update of the duty cycle is disabled. The following three cases are possible when

immediate update is enabled:

• Case 1: If the PWM output is active at the time the new duty cycle is written and the new

duty cycle is greater than the current time base value, the PWM pulse-width is lengthened

• Case 2: If the PWM output is active at the time the new duty cycle value is written and the

new duty cycle is less than the current time base value, the PWM pulse-width is shortened

• Case 3: If the PWM output is inactive when the new duty cycle value is written and the new

duty cycle is greater than the current time base value, the PWM output becomes active

immediately and remains active for the newly written duty cycle value. As seen in

Figure 14-82, in this case, the dead time will not be incorporated into the first edge of the

active PWM period.

14.14 POWER-SAVING MODES

This section discusses the operation of the High-Speed PWM module in Sleep mode and Idle

mode.

14.14.1 High-Speed PWM Operation in Sleep Mode

When the device enters Sleep mode, the system clock is disabled. Since the clock for the PWM

time base is derived from the system clock source (TOSC), that clock will also be disabled and all

enabled PWM output pins that were in effect prior to entering Sleep mode will be frozen in the

output states. If the High-Speed PWM module is used to control a load in a power application,

the High-Speed PWM module outputs must be placed into a safe state before executing the

PWRSAV instruction. Depending on the application, the load may begin to consume excessive

current when the PWM outputs are frozen in a particular output state. In such a case, the override

functionality can be used to drive the PWM output pins into the inactive state.

If the fault inputs are configured for the High-Speed PWM module, the fault input pins continue

to function normally when the device is in Sleep mode. If one of the fault pins is driven low while

the device is in Sleep mode, the PWM outputs are driven to the programmed fault states. The

fault input pins can also wake the CPU from Sleep mode. If the fault pin interrupt priority is greater

than the current CPU priority, program execution starts at the fault pin interrupt vector location

upon wake-up. Otherwise, execution continues from the next instruction following the PWRSAV

instruction.

14.14.2 High-Speed PWM Operation in Idle Mode

The PWM module has a PTSIDL control bit in the PTCON register. This bit determines if the

PWM module will continue to operate or stop when the device enters Idle mode. If PTSIDL = 0,

the module will continue to operate as normal. If PTSIDL = 1, the module will shut down and stop

its internal clocks. The system will not be able to access the special function registers in this

mode. This will be the minimum power mode for the module. Stopped Idle mode functions like

Sleep mode and fault pins will be asynchronously active. The control of the PWM pins will revert

back to the GPIO bits associated with the PWM pins if the PWM module enters an Idle state.

It is recommended that the user-assigned application disable the PWM outputs prior to entering

Idle mode. If the PWM module is controlling a power conversion/motor control application, the

action of putting the device into Idle mode will cause any control loops to be disabled, and most

applications will likely experience issues unless they are explicitly designed to operate in an open

loop mode.

14.15 EXTERNAL CONTROL OF INDIVIDUAL TIME BASE(S)

External signals can reset the primary dedicated time bases, if the XPRES bit (PWMCONx<1>)

is set. This mode of operation is called Current Reset PWM mode. If the user-assigned

application sets the ITB bit, a PWM generator operates in Independent Time Base mode. If the

user-assigned application sets the XPRES bit and operates the PWM generator in Master Time

Base mode, the results may be unpredictable.

The current-limit source signal specified by the CLSRC<4:0> bits (FCLCONx<14:10>) causes

the independent time base to reset. The active edge of the selected current-limit signal is

specified by the CLPOL bit (FCLCONx<9>).

In Primary Independent Time Base mode, some Power Factor Correction (PFC) applications

need to maintain the inductor current value above minimum desired current level. These

applications use the external Reset feature. If the inductor current falls below the desired value,

the PWM cycle is terminated early so that the PWM output can be asserted to increase the

inductor current. The PWM period varies according to the application needs. This type of

application is a variable frequency PWM mode.

Note: For more details on power-saving modes, refer to Section 9. “Watchdog Timer

(WDT) and Power-Saving Modes” (DS70615).

14.16 APPLICATION INFORMATION

Typical applications that use different PWM operating modes and features are:

• Complementary Output Mode

• Push-Pull Output Mode

• Multi-Phase PWM

• Variable Phase PWM

• Current Reset PWM

• Constant Off-Time PWM

Each application is described in the following sections.

14.16.1 Complementary Output Mode

The Complementary PWM mode shown in Figure 14-83 is generated in a manner that is similar

to Standard Edge-Aligned mode. This mode provides a second PWM output signal on the

PWMxL pin that is the complement of the primary PWM signal (PWMxH).

14.16.2 Push-Pull Output Mode

The Push-Pull PWM mode, shown in Figure 14-85, alternately outputs the PWM signal on one

of two PWM pins. In this mode, complementary PWM output is not available. This mode is useful

in transformer-based power converter circuits that avoid flow of direct current that saturates their

cores. The Push-Pull mode ensures that the duty cycle of the two phases is identical, thereby

yielding a net DC bias of zero.

14.16.3 Multi-Phase PWM

The Multi-Phase PWM, shown in Figure 14-86, uses phase shift values in the PHASEx registers

to shift the PWM outputs with respect to the primary time base. Because the phase shift values

are added to the primary time base, the phase shifted outputs occur earlier than a PWM signal

that specifies zero phase shifts. In Multi-Phase mode, the specified phase shift is fixed by the

application’s design. Phase shift is available in all PWM modes that use the master time base.

Multi-phase PWM is often used in DC-to-DC converters that handle fast load current transients,

and need to meet smaller space requirements. A multi-phase converter is essentially a parallel

array of buck converters that are operated slightly out of phase with each other. The multiple

phases create an effective switching speed equal to the sum of the individual converters.

If a single phase is operating at a PWM frequency of 333 kHz, the effective switching frequency

for the circuit, shown in Figure 14-87, is 1 MHz. This high switching frequency greatly reduces

input and output capacitor size requirements. It also improves load transient response and ripple

figures.

14.16.3.1 INTERLEAVED POWER FACTOR CORRECTION (IPFC)

The interleaving of multiple boost converters in PFC circuits is becoming popular in the recent

applications. Figure 14-87 and Figure 14-88 illustrate the typical interleaved PFC circuit

configuration and the interleaved PFC operational waveforms, respectively.

By staggering the channels at uniform intervals, multichannel interleaved PFC can reduce the

input current ripple significantly due to the ripple cancellation effect. The smaller input current

ripple indicates the low Differential Mode (DM) noise filter. It is generally believed that the

reduced Differential mode noise magnitude makes the Differential mode filter smaller. The output

capacitor voltage ripples are also reduced significantly as a function of the duty cycle.

14.16.4 Variable Phase PWM

The Variable Phase PWM shown in Figure 14-91, constantly changes the phase shift among

PWM channels to control the flow of power, which is in contrast with most PWM circuits that vary

the duty cycle of PWM signal to control power flow. In variable phase applications, the PWM duty

cycle is often maintained at 50 percent. The phase shift value is available to all PWM modes that

use the master time base.

The variable phase PWM is used in newer power conversion/motor control topologies that are

designed to reduce switching losses. In the standard PWM methods, when a transistor switches

between the conducting state and the non-conducting state (and vice versa), the transistor is

exposed to the full current and voltage condition during the time when the transistor turns ON or

OFF and the power loss (V * I * T SW * FPWM) becomes appreciable at high frequencies.

The Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) and Zero Current Switching (ZVC) circuit topologies attempt

to use quasi-resonant techniques that shift either the voltage or the current waveforms relative

to each other to change the value of voltage or the current to zero when the transistor turns ON

or OFF. If either the current or the voltage is zero, no switching loss occurs.

14.16.5 Current Reset PWM

The Current Reset PWM shown in Figure 14-92 is a variable frequency mode, where the actual

PWM period is less than or equal to the specified period value. The independent time base is

reset externally after the PWM signal has been deasserted. The Current Reset PWM mode can

be used in Constant PWM On-Time mode. To operate in PWM Current Reset, the PWM

generator should be in Independent Time Base. If an external Reset signal is not received, the

PWM period uses the PHASEx register value by default.

In Current Reset mode, the PWM frequency varies with the load current. This is different from

most PWM modes because the user-assigned application sets the maximum PWM period and

an external circuit measures the inductor current. When the inductor current falls below a

specified value, the external current comparator circuit generates a signal that resets the PWM

time base counter. The user-assigned application specifies a PWM ON time, and then some time

after the PWM signal becomes inactive, the inductor current falls below a specified value and the

PWM counter is reset earlier than the programmed PWM period. This is called Constant On-Time

Variable Frequency PWM output and is used in Critical Conduction mode PFC applications.

This should not be confused with the cycle-by-cycle current-limiting PWM output, where the

PWM output is asserted, an external circuit generates a current fault, and the PWM signal is

turned off before its programmed duty cycle would normally turn it off. Here, the PWM frequency

is fixed for a given time base period.

The advantages of Current Reset PWM mode in PFC applications are as follows:

• As the PFC boost inductor does not require to store energy at the end of each switching

cycle, a smaller inductor can be used. The usage of the smaller inductor leads to reduced

cost.

• Commutation of Boost diode from ON to OFF happens at zero current. The slower diodes

can be used to reduce the cost.

• Inner current feedback loop is much faster, as the feedback is received for every cycle

Note: In Current Reset mode, the local time base resetting is based on the leading edge

of the current-limit input signal after completion of the PWMxH/L duty cycle.

14.16.6 Constant Off-Time PWM

Constant Off-Time PWM, shown in Figure 14-93, is a variable-frequency PWM output where the

actual PWM period is less than or equal to the specified period value. The PWM time base resets

externally after the PWM signal duty cycle value has been reached and the PWM signal has been

deasserted. This is implemented by enabling the On-Time PWM output called Current Reset

PWM and using the complementary PWM output (PWMxL).

The Constant Off-Time PWM can be enabled only when the PWM generator operates in

independent time base. If an external Reset signal is not received, by default, the PWM period

uses the value specified in PHASEx register.

14.16.7 Current-Limit PWM

The cycle-by-cycle current-limit shown in Figure 14-94, truncates the asserted PWM signal when

the selected external fault signal is asserted. The PWM output values are specified by the

CLDAT<1:0> bits (IOCONx<3:2>). The override outputs remain in effect until the beginning of

the next PWM cycle. This is sometimes used in the Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuits,

where the inductor current controls the PWM On-Time. This is a constant frequency PWM.

Figure 14-94: Current-Limit PWM

14.16.8 Discontinuous or Burst Mode Implementation

In applications where the load current drawn from the converter is much smaller than its nominal

current/converter operating at no load, the power drawn from the source can be reduced by

forcing the converter to deassert the PWM output by using manual override. Typically, the

converter PWM output can be turned off over a period of time based on the output voltage

regulation, which can reduce the no load power requirements significantly.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:

• Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.

• Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the

intended manner and under normal conditions.

• There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our

knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data

Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.

• Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.

• Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not

mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”

Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our

products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts

allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.

Microchip received ISO/TS-16949:2009 certification for its worldwide

headquarters, design and wafer fabrication facilities in Chandler and

Tempe, Arizona; Gresham, Oregon and design centers in California

and India. The Company’s quality system processes and procedures

are for its PIC® MCUs and dsPIC® DSCs, KEELOQ® code hopping

devices, Serial EEPROMs, microperipherals, nonvolatile memory and

analog products. In addition, Microchip’s quality system for the design

and manufacture of development systems is ISO 9001:2000 certified.
