Figure 15-9. Phase and Frequency Correct PWM Mode, Timing Diagram

The Timer/Counter Overflow Flag (TOVn) is set at the same timer clock cycle as the OCRnx

Registers are updated with the double buffer value (at BOTTOM). When either OCRnA or ICRn

is used for defining the TOP value, the OCnA or ICFn Flag set when TCNTn has reached TOP.

The Interrupt Flags can then be used to generate an interrupt each time the counter reaches the

TOP or BOTTOM value.

When changing the TOP value the program must ensure that the new TOP value is higher or

equal to the value of all of the Compare Registers. If the TOP value is lower than any of the

Compare Registers, a compare match will never occur between the TCNTn and the OCRnx.

As Figure 15-9 shows the output generated is, in contrast to the phase correct mode, symmetri-

cal in all periods. Since the OCRnx Registers are updated at BOTTOM, the length of the rising

and the falling slopes will always be equal. This gives symmetrical output pulses and is therefore

frequency correct.

Using the ICRn Register for defining TOP works well when using fixed TOP values. By using

ICRn, the OCRnA Register is free to be used for generating a PWM output on OCnA. However,

if the base PWM frequency is actively changed by changing the TOP value, using the OCRnA as

TOP is clearly a better choice due to its double buffer feature.

In phase and frequency correct PWM mode, the compare units allow generation of PWM wave-

forms on the OCnx pins. Setting the COMnx1:0 bits to two will produce a non-inverted PWM and

an inverted PWM output can be generated by setting the COMnx1:0 to three (See Table on

page 123). The actual OCnx value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for the

port pin is set as output (DDR_OCnx). The PWM waveform is generated by setting (or clearing)

the OCnx Register at the compare match between OCRnx and TCNTn when the counter incre-

ments, and clearing (or setting) the OCnx Register at compare match between OCRnx and

TCNTn when the counter decrements. The PWM frequency for the output when using phase

and frequency correct PWM can be calculated by the following equation:

The N variable represents the prescaler divider (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024).
