10.4.1
In Half-Bridge mode, two pins are used as outputs to
drive push-pull loads. The PWM output signal is output
on the CCP1/P1A pin, while the complementary PWM
output signal is output on the P1B pin (see Figure 10-8).
This mode can be used for Half-Bridge applications, as
shown in Figure 10-9, or for Full-Bridge applications,
where four power switches are being modulated with
two PWM signals.
In Half-Bridge mode, the programmable dead-band delay
can be used to prevent shoot-through current in Half-
Bridge power devices. The value of the PDC<6:0> bits of
the PWM1CON register sets the number of instruction
cycles before the output is driven active. If the value is
greater than the duty cycle, the corresponding output
remains
Section 10.4.5 “Programmable Dead-Band Delay
mode” for more details of the dead-band delay
operations.

Since the P1A and P1B outputs are multiplexed with
the PORT data latches, the associated TRIS bits must
be cleared to configure P1A and P1B as outputs.
