PWM Operation in CPU Stop Mode
When the eZ8 CPU is operating in STOP mode, the Pulse-Width Modulator is disabled,
because the system clock ceases to operate in STOP mode. The PWM outputs remain in
the same state as they were prior to entering STOP mode. In normal operation, the PWM
outputs must be disabled by the software prior to the CPU entering STOP mode. A fault
condition detected in STOP mode forces the PWM outputs to a predefined OFF state.
Observing the State of PWM Output Channels
The logic value of the PWM outputs can be sampled by reading the PWMIN register. If a
PWM channel pair is disabled (an option bit is not set), the associated PWM outputs are
forced to high-impedance, and can be used as general-purpose inputs.
PWM High and Low Byte Registers
The PWM High and Low Byte (PWMH and PWML) registers, shown in Tables 42 and
43, contain the current 12-bit PWM count value. Reads from PWMH cause the value in
PWML to be stored in a temporary holding register. A read from PWML always returns
this temporary register value.
Caution: Writing to the PWM High and Low Byte registers while the PWM is enabled is not rec-
ommended. There are no temporary holding registers for Write operations, so simulta-
neous 12-bit Writes are not possible.
If either the PWM High or Low Byte registers are written during counting, the 8-bit writ-
ten value is placed in the counter (High or Low byte) at the next clock edge. The counter
continues counting from the new value.
