SYNCHRONIZING PULSE-WIDTH MODULATION CONTROL

Abstract:

In described examples, a pulse width modulation (PWM) system includes an initiator and a receiver. The initiator includes an initiator counter and an initiator PWM signal generator. The initiator counter advances an initiator count in response to an initiator clock signal. The initiator PWM signal generator generates an initiator PWM signal in response to the initiator count. The receiver includes a receiver counter, a receiver PWM signal generator, and circuitry configured to reset the receiver count. The receiver counter advances a receiver count in response to a receiver clock signal. The receiver PWM signal generator generates a receiver PWM signal in response to the receiver count. The circuitry resets the receiver count in response to a synchronization signal and based on an offset.
