Abstract

The enhanced pulse width modulator (ePWM) peripheral is a key element in controlling many of the power electronic systems found in both industrial and automotive applications. C2000™ real-time microcontrollers offer many differentiated features within the ePWM peripheral that allow for advanced control techniques. This application note focuses on an application use-case described within the introduction, demonstrating each of the features of the ePWM along with how to use SysConfig system configuration tool to set-up and program the desired outputs. SysConfig is a tool that exists integrated in Code Composer Studio™ (CCS) or as a standalone program that allows you to generate C header and code files using a graphical user interface (GUI). This application note was done using the TMS320F28388D device. However, the content in this application note is applicable to all devices with a Type-4 ePWM module. For more information on peripheral types, see the C2000 Real-Time Control MCU Peripherals Guide.
