Enhanced Quadrature Encoder Pulse (eQEP) Module
For example, if QPOSCMP = 2, the position-compare unit generates a position-compare event on 1 to 2
transitions of the eQEP position counter for forward counting direction and on 3 to 2 transitions of the
eQEP position counter for reverse counting direction (see
).
shows the layout of the eQEP Position-Compare Control Register (QPOSCTL) and
describes the QPOSCTL bit fields.
Figure 34-13. eQEP Position-compare Event Generation Points
The pulse stretcher logic in the position-compare unit generates a programmable position-compare sync
pulse output on the position-compare match. In the event of a new position-compare match while a
previous position-compare pulse is still active, then the pulse stretcher generates a pulse of specified
duration from the new position-compare event as shown in
