The DPWM Module is probably the most complex and central of the DPPs. It takes the output of the Filter and converts it into the correct PWM output for many power supply topologies. Each DPWM module has two output pins – DPWMxA and DPWMxB (x=0, 1, 2 & 3). The DPWM provides for programmable dead times and cycle adjustments for current balancing between phases. It controls the triggering of the EADC. It can synchronize to other DPWMs or to external sources. Alternately, it can provide synchronization information to other DPWMs or to external recipients. The DPWM can also be synchronized to external devices using the SYNC pin as either an input or an output. In addition, it interfaces to several fault detection circuits. The response to these faults is part of the DPWM function.
