PWM-Chopper (PC) Submodule
Figure 2-30
illustrates the PWM-chopper (PC) submodule within the ePWM module.
Figure 2-30. PWM-Chopper Submodule
The PWM-chopper submodule allows a high-frequency carrier signal to modulate the PWM waveform
generated by the action-qualifier and dead-band submodules. This capability is important if you need
pulse transformer-based gate drivers to control the power switching elements.
The key functions of the PWM-chopper submodule are:
•
Programmable chopping (carrier) frequency
•
Programmable pulse width of first pulse
•
Programmable duty cycle of second and subsequent pulses
•
Can be fully bypassed if not required
The PWM-chopper submodule operation is controlled via the registers in
Table 2-15

PWM-chopper Control Register
Figure 2-31
shows the operational details of the PWM-chopper submodule. The carrier clock is derived
from SYSCLKOUT. Its frequency and duty cycle are controlled via the CHPFREQ and CHPDUTY bits in
the PCCTL register. The one-shot block is a feature that provides a high energy first pulse to ensure hard
and fast power switch turn on, while the subsequent pulses sustain pulses, ensuring the power switch
remains on. The one-shot width is programmed via the OSHTWTH bits. The PWM-chopper submodule
can be fully disabled (bypassed) via the CHPEN bit.
