Operation Modes
The following sections provide information on the operating modes of the
PWM module.

Waveform Modes

The PWM module can operate in both edge- and center-aligned modes.
These modes are described in the following sections.

Edge-Aligned Mode

In edge-aligned mode, shown in
left-justified in the period window. A duty value of zero, programmed
through the
PWMAx
cycle. For even values of period, the PWM pulse width is exactly period/2,
whereas for odd values of period, it is equal to period/2 (rounded up).
Therefore for a duty value programmed in two's-complement, the PWM
pulse width is given by:
To generate constant logic high on PWM output, program the duty regis-
ter with the value ≥ + period/2.
To generate constant logic low on PWM output, program the duty regis-
ter with the value ≥ – period/2.
For example, using an odd period of p = 2n + 1, the counter within the
PWM generator counts as (–n...0...+n). If the period is even (p = 2n) then
the counter counts as (–n+1...0...n).
