15.7.3 Fast PWM Mode
The fast Pulse Width Modulation or fast PWM mode (WGM01:0 = 3) provides a high frequency PWM waveform
generation option. The fast PWM differs from the other PWM option by its single-slope operation. The counter
counts from BOTTOM to MAX then restarts from BOTTOM. In non-inverting Compare Output mode, the Output
Compare (OC0) is cleared on the compare match between TCNT0 and OCR0, and set at BOTTOM. In inverting
Compare Output mode, the output is set on compare match and cleared at BOTTOM. Due to the single-slope oper-
ation, the operating frequency of the fast PWM mode can be twice as high as the phase correct PWM mode that
use dual-slope operation. This high frequency makes the fast PWM mode well suited for power regulation, rectifi-
cation, and DAC applications. High frequency allows physically small sized external components (coils,
capacitors), and therefore reduces total system cost.
In fast PWM mode, the counter is incremented until the counter value matches the MAX value. The counter is then
cleared at the following timer clock cycle. The timing diagram for the fast PWM mode is shown in Figure 14-6. The
TCNT0 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for illustrating the single-slope operation. The diagram
includes non-inverted and inverted PWM outputs. The small horizontal line marks on the TCNT0 slopes represent
compare matches between OCR0 and TCNT0.
Figure 15-6. Fast PWM Mode, Timing Diagram
The Timer/Counter Overflow Flag (TOV0) is set each time the counter reaches MAX. If the interrupt is enabled, the
interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the compare value.
In fast PWM mode, the compare unit allows generation of PWM waveforms on the OC0 pin. Setting the COM01:0
bits to 2 will produce a non-inverted PWM and an inverted PWM output can be generated by setting the COM01:0
to 3 (See Table 14-4 on page 85). The actual OC0 value will only be visible on the port pin if the data direction for
the port pin is set as output. The PWM waveform is generated by setting (or clearing) the OC0 Register at the com-
pare match between OCR0 and TCNT0, and clearing (or setting) the OC0 Register at the timer clock cycle the
counter is cleared (changes from MAX to BOTTOM).
The PWM frequency for the output can be calculated by the following equation:
The N variable represents the prescale factor (1, 8, 64, 256, or 1024).
The extreme values for the OCR0 Register represents special cases when generating a PWM waveform output in
the fast PWM mode. If the OCR0 is set equal to BOTTOM, the output will be a narrow spike for each MAX+1 timer
