16.0 MOTION FEEDBACK MODULE
The Motion Feedback Module (MFM) is a special
purpose peripheral designed for motion feedback
applications. Together with the Power Control PWM
(PCPWM) module (see Section 17.0 “Power Control
PWM Module”), it provides a variety of control
solutions for a wide range of electric motors.
The module actually consists of two hardware
submodules:
• Input Capture (IC)
• Quadrature Encoder Interface (QEI)
Together with Timer5 (see Section 14.0 “Timer5
Module”), these modules provide a number of
options for motion and control applications.
Many of the features for the IC and QEI submodules
are fully programmable, creating a flexible peripheral
structure that can accommodate a wide range of
in-system uses. An overview of the available features
is presented in Table 16-1. A simplified block diagram
of the entire Motion Feedback Module is shown in
Figure 16-1.
Note:
Because the same input pins are common
to the IC and QEI submodules, only one of
these two submodules may be used at any
given time. If both modules are on, the QEI
submodule will take precedence.
