1.22 OCMP Compare Mode

This example application shows how to use the OCMP peripheral to generate an active low, active high, and toggle output on compare match.

Description

In this application, three OCMP modules are used to generate waveforms.

Active Low Output: By default output is set as high and it is set as low on the compare match

Active High Output: By default output is set as low and it is set as high on the compare match

Toggled Output: Compare match toggles the output
