PMPCON Pump Control Register
ADDRESS: 0x8000.0400
The Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) pump control register is a 16-bit read / write register which sets
and controls the variable mark space ratio drives for the two PWMs. All bits in this register are cleared
by a system reset. (The top four bits are unused. They should be written as zeroes, and will read as
undefined).
The state of the output drive pins is latched during power on reset, this latched value is used to de-
termine the polarity of the drive output. The sense of the PWM control lines is summarized in
Table 44
.
External input pins that would normally be connected to the output from comparators monitoring the
PWM output are also used to enable these clocks. These are the FB[0:1] pins. When FB[0] is high,
the PWM is disabled. The same applies to FB[1]. They are read upon power-up.
NOTE:
To maximize power savings, the drive ratio fields should be used to disable the PWMs,
instead of the FB pins. The clocks that source the PWMs are disabled when the drive ratio
fields are zeroed.

Description
0:3
Drive 0 from battery
: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the Drive 0 PWM pump while the
system is powered from batteries. Setting these bits to 0 disables this pump, while setting these
bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio etc. up to a 15:16
duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an
18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz source.
Drive 0 from AC
: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the Drive 0 DC to DC pump, while the
system is powered from a non-battery type power source. Setting these bits to 0 disables this
pump, setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a 1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty
ratio, etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a square wave of 96 kHz when
operating with an 18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when operating from the 13 MHz
source.
NOTE:
The EP7212 monitors the power supply input pins (i.e., BATOK and NEXTPWR) to
determine which of the above fields to use.
Drive 1 pump ratio
: This 4-bit field controls the “on” time for the drive1 PWM pump. Setting
these bits to 0 disables this pump, while setting these bits to 1 allows the pump to be driven in a
1:16 duty ratio, 2 in a 2:16 duty ratio, etc. up to a 15:16 duty ratio. An 8:16 duty ratio results in a
square wave of 96 kHz when operating with an 18.432 MHz master clock, or 101.6 kHz when
operating from the 13 MHz source.
