15.1.4
In the Double Update mode (PTMOD<1:0> = 11), an
interrupt event is generated each time the PTMR regis-
ter is equal to zero, as well as each time a period match
occurs. The postscaler selection bits have no effect in
this mode of the timer.
The Double Update mode provides two additional func-
tions to the user. First, the control loop bandwidth is
doubled because the PWM duty cycles can be
updated, twice per period. Second, asymmetrical cen-
ter-aligned PWM waveforms can be generated, which
are useful for minimizing output waveform distortion in
certain motor control applications.

options of 1:1, 1:4, 1:16, or 1:64, selected by control
bits, PTCKPS<1:0>, in the PTCON SFR. The prescaler
counter is cleared when any of the following occurs:
• a write to the PTMR register
• a write to the PTCON register
• any device Reset
PTMR is not cleared when PTCON is written.
15.1.6
The match output of PTMR can optionally be post-
scaled through a 4-bit postscaler (which gives a 1:1 to
1:16 scaling).
The postscaler counter is cleared when any of the
following occurs:
• a write to the PTMR register
• a write to the PTCON register
• any device Reset
PTMR is not cleared when PTCON is written.

PTPER is a 15-bit, double-buffered register that sets the
counting period for the PWM time base. The PTPER buf-
fer is loaded into the PTPER register at these instants:
• Free-Running and Single-Shot modes: When the
• Up/Down Counting modes: When the PTMR
The value held in the PTPER buffer is automatically
loaded into the PTPER register when the PWM time
base is disabled (PTEN = 0).

Edge-aligned PWM signals are produced by the module
when the PWM time base is in the Free-Running or
Single-Shot mode. For edge-aligned PWM outputs, the
output has a period specified by the value in PTPER
and a duty cycle specified by the appropriate Duty Cycle
register (see
active at the beginning of the period (PTMR = 0) and is
driven inactive when the value in the Duty Cycle register
matches PTMR.
If the value in a particular Duty Cycle register is zero,
then the output on the corresponding PWM pin will be
inactive for the entire PWM period. In addition, the out-
put on the PWM pin will be active for the entire PWM
period if the value in the Duty Cycle register is greater
than the value held in the PTPER register.
