positive polarity pulse width. The CH(n)F bit is set when the first edge of this pulse is
detected, that is, the edge selected by ELS(n)B:ELS(n)A bits. The CH(n+1)F bit is set
and DECAP bit is cleared when the second edge of this pulse is detected, that is, the edge
selected by ELS(n+1)B:ELS(n+1)A bits. Both DECAP and CH(n+1)F bits indicate when
two edges of the pulse were captured and the C(n)V and C(n+1)V registers are ready for
reading.

Figure 38-247. Dual Edge Capture – One-Shot mode for positive polarity pulse width
measurement
The following figure shows an example of the Dual Edge Capture – Continuous mode
used to measure the positive polarity pulse width. The DECAPEN bit selects the Dual
Edge Capture mode, so it remains set. While the DECAP bit is set the configured
measurements are made. The CH(n)F bit is set when the first edge of the positive polarity
pulse is detected, that is, the edge selected by ELS(n)B:ELS(n)A bits. The CH(n+1)F bit
