Abstract
Configuration bits are provided that configure PWM outputs of a processor incorporating a PWM module. The configuration bits cause the PWM module to put the PWM outputs into tri-state, active high or active low modes when the PWM module is inactive or when individual PWM outputs are not enabled. The configuration bits are stored in non-volatile memory and perform the configuration after power-up of the processor and after a reset when the PWM module is generally in an inactive state.
