Figure 40-6. 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 ded-
icated interrupt in PWM_IER at PWM Controller level.
The first method (polling method) consists of reading the relevant status bit in PWM_ISR Reg-
ister according to the enabled channel(s). See Figure 40-7.
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.
