VARIABLE FREQUENCY RATIOMETRIC MULTIPHASE PULSE WIDTH MODULATION GENERATION

摘要

Groups of phase shifted PWM signals are generated that maintain their duty-cycle and phase relationships as a function of the period of the PWM signal frequency. The multiphase PWM signals are generated in a ratio-metric fashion so as to greatly simplify and reduce the computational workload for a processor used in a PWM system. The groups of phase shifted PWM signals may also be synchronized with and automatically scaled to match external synchronization signals.
