14.4.2.4.5 Behavior of PWM Generator Output Signal Across PWM Cycle Boundaries

During normal operation, the PWM Data registers will be programmed to create a PWM pulse which begins and terminates within a single PWM cycle. It is possible to write values to the PWM Data registers that will result in a 100% duty cycle output or produce an active output that spans across PWM cycles. The PWM Generator must remain in a continuously triggered state in order for the PWM output to remain active across PWM cycles. To remain triggered, the PWM Generator trigger input signal must be coincident with the EOC output signal. This will happen automatically when:

• The PWM Generator is self-triggered (SOCS[3:0] = 0000)
• The local PGxPER value is set to the same value as the external PWM Generator that is providing the trigger signal

If the PWM Generator trigger input signal does not occur at or before the EOC output signal, then the PWM Generator will exit the triggered state and the PWM Generator output will be driven inactive.
