7.4.5 Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM)

The AFE439A2 provides a 7-bit duty-cycle PWM output on the SDA/SCLK/PWM pin. Pull the VREF/MODE pin high to enable PWM functionality. Table 7-3 lists all the possible PWM frequency configurations.

(1) The PWM-FREQUENCY shares SRAM location with MIN-OUTPUT (0x21[15:9]). Therefore, both these parameters must be written together.

The duty cycle of the PWM is proportional to the 7-bit code, 0d to 126d. As Table 7-4 shows, the code 127d corresponds to 100% duty cycle. The duty cycle 99.22% (127d/128d) is skipped to achieve 100% duty cycle using a 7-bit code. The PWM duty-cycle setting is done by the state machine and is not exposed to the user.

Table 7-4 PWM Duty Cycle Setting
CODE DUTY-CYCLE DESCRIPTION
0 0% Always 0
1 0.78% Minimum linear duty cycle
x (x/128)% x is the code between 2d and 125d, both included.
126 98.44% Maximum linear duty cycle
127 100% Always 1. The duty cycle 99.22% (127d/128d) is skipped.
