Figure 34-6. Synchronized Period or Duty Cycle Update
To prevent overwriting the PWM_CUPDx by software, the user can use status events in order to synchronize his
software. Two methods are possible. In both, the user must enable the dedicated interrupt in PWM_IER at PWM
Controller level.
The first method (polling method) consists of reading the relevant status bit in PWM_ISR Register according to the
enabled channel(s). See Figure 34-7.
The second method uses an Interrupt Service Routine associated with the PWM channel.
Note: Reading the PWM_ISR register automatically clears CHIDx flags.

Note: Polarity and alignment can be modified only when the channel is disabled.
