50.6.6.1 Initialization

Before enabling the channels, they must be configured by the software application as described below:

  • Unlock User Interface by writing the WPCMD field in PWM_WPCR.
  • Configuration of the clock generator (DIVA, PREA, DIVB, PREB in the PWM_CLK register if required).
  • Selection of the clock for each channel (CPRE field in PWM_CMRx)
  • Configuration of the waveform alignment for each channel (CALG field in PWM_CMRx)
  • Selection of the counter event selection (if CALG = 1) for each channel (CES field in PWM_CMRx)
  • Configuration of the output waveform polarity for each channel (CPOL bit in PWM_CMRx)
  • Configuration of the period for each channel (CPRD in the PWM_CPRDx register). Writing in PWM_CPRDx register is possible while the channel is disabled. After validation of the channel, the user must use PWM_CPRDUPDx register to update PWM_CPRDx as explained below.
  • Configuration of the duty-cycle for each channel (CDTY in the PWM_CDTYx register). Writing in PWM_CDTYx register is possible while the channel is disabled. After validation of the channel, the user must use PWM_CDTYUPDx register to update PWM_CDTYx as explained below.
  • Configuration of the dead-time generator for each channel (DTH and DTL in PWM_DTx) if enabled (DTE bit in PWM_CMRx). Writing in the PWM_DTx register is possible while the channel is disabled. After validation of the channel, the user must use PWM_DTUPDx register to update PWM_DTx
  • Selection of the synchronous channels (SYNCx in the PWM_SCM register)
  • Selection of the moment when the WRDY flag and the corresponding DMA Controller transfer request are set (PTRM and PTRCS in the PWM_SCM register)
  • Configuration of the Update mode (UPDM in PWM_SCM register)
  • Configuration of the update period (UPR in PWM_SCUP register) if needed
  • Configuration of the comparisons (PWM_CMPVx and PWM_CMPMx)
  • Configuration of the event lines (PWM_ELMRx)
  • Configuration of the fault inputs polarity (FPOL in PWM_FMR)
  • Configuration of the fault protection (FMOD and FFIL in PWM_FMR, PWM_FPV and PWM_FPE)
  • Enable of the interrupts (writing CHIDx and FCHIDx in PWM_IER1, and writing WRDY, UNRE, CMPMx and CMPUx in PWM_IER2)
  • Enable of the PWM channels (writing CHIDx in the PWM_ENA register)
