16.3.3.4 Fault Handler Submodule
Each MCPWM peripheral is connected to three fault signals (FAULT0, FAULT1 and FAULT2) which are sourced
from the GPIO matrix. These signals are intended to indicate external fault conditions, and may be preprocessed
by the fault detection submodule to generate fault events. Fault events can then execute the user code to
control MCPWM outputs in response to specific faults.
Function of Fault Handler Submodule
The key actions performed by the fault handler submodule are:
• Forcing outputs PWMxA and PWMxB, upon detected fault, to one of the following states:
– High
– Low
– Toggle
– No action taken
• Execution of one-shot trip (OST) upon detection of over-current conditions/short circuits.
• Cycle-by-cycle tripping (CBC) to provide current-limiting operation.
• Allocation of either one-shot or cycle-by-cycle operation for each fault signal.
• Generation of interrupts for each fault input.
• Support for software-force tripping.
• Enabling or disabling of submodule function as required.
