25.9 Falling Edge and Forward Dead Band
In Half-Bridge mode, the falling edge dead band delays the turn-on of the CWGxB output at the falling edge of the CWG data input. In Full-Bridge mode, the forward dead-band delay is only inserted when changing directions from Reverse mode to Forward mode, and only the modulated output CWGxD is affected.
The CWGxDBF25.15.9 CWGxDBF register determines the duration of the dead-band interval on the falling edge of the input source signal. This duration is from zero to 64 periods of CWG clock.
Dead-band delay is always initiated on the edge of the input source signal. A count of zero indicates that no dead band is present.
If the input source signal reverses polarity before the dead-band count is completed, then no signal will be seen on the respective output.
0, the buffer is loaded when
CWGxDBF is written. When EN = 1, then the buffer
will be loaded at the rising edge following the first falling edge of the data input after
the LD is set. Refer to the following figure for an example.
