PRODUCTION DATA
OUT1 and OUT2 2 half bridges can be configured as high side drivers by setting the OUT1_MODE and OUT2_MODE bits in the HB_OUT_CNFG2 register. When OUTx_MODE is set to 1b the corresponding output operates in high-side mode.
In high side driver configuration, OUT1 and OUT2 outputs are controlled only by internal PWM generator. This control is enabled by configuring OUT1_CNFG and OUT2_CNFG to xx1b. Setting these bits to xx0b disables the outputs OUT1 and OUT2.
When configured in high-side mode, the PWM frequency for OUT1 and OUT2 can be programmed using PWM_OUT1_FREQ and PWM_OUT2_FREQ bits in the HB_ITRIP_FREQ register. The bits OUT1_DC and OUT2_DC configure the duty cycle control from internal PWM generator up to a value of 1022 (99.8% duty cycle).
| PWM_OUTx_FREQ | PWM Frequency (Hz) |
|---|---|
| 00b | 108 |
| 01b | 217 |
| 10b | 289 |
| 11b | 434 |
The same protections and diagnostic features as half-bridge mode apply to OUT1 and OUT2 in high-side mode.
