Timing Scheme
The PWM is generated by a CCU4/8 timer in compare mode.
A Compare Register (CR) controls the duty-cycle (D).
The “sense-loop-drive” process (marked by a yellow background in the following figure) is repeated
with a time constant of
n
loop cycles, while the sensing and averaging of V
OUT
is processed each
cycle.
In Voltage Control (VC) mode there is no need for sensing the inductor current (I
L
). The curve of this
current is shown though, to suggest the preferable PWM events that should start VADC conversions.
