ePWM is typically used as the output signal in closed-loop control applications, such as EV traction, DC to DC, and industrial drive. In such applications, a failure in the ePWM output (such as, a stuck-at fault or a frequency or duty cycle change) results in a disturbance to control loop parameters or variables; leading to conditions such as overvoltage, overcurrent, or overtemperature. By monitoring the characteristics of these control-loop parameters implemented at application-level, faults in the ePWM module can be detected.
