If the SYS_HDBF=1 the GPT can optionally insert a dead-band transition in a reference PWM signal. Dead band insertion is accomplished by taking a reference pulse width modulated signal and generating two pulse width modulated signals (IOn and IO_Cn) of the same frequency but with a dead band period inserted between the signals. This is shown in Figure 13-12 .
As shown in Figure 13-12 RISEDLY and FALLDLY fields from the DBDLY register are added with a value of 1 during Dead-Band insertion. Both IO and IO_C signals are also one system clock cycled delayed due to the Dead-band insertion logic.
