4.5 ON/OFF Control
Since all the individual ‘timer-cells’ of a CCU can be mapped to act upon virtually any external event
and function request, then theoretically any on-chip module can be considered to control a PWM. For
example, an ADC or comparators can join in the PWM control loops in this way, acting on analog
events. With such configurations, variable frequency and/or PWM pattern control is easily
accomplished.

4.6 Fixed ON-Time (FOT)
Fixed-On-Time (FOT) PWM has two essential properties:
1. The FOT Pulse Width is generated by a fixed active output state of a timer, by single-shot mode
for example.
2. The FOT Pulse Rate is controlled by external events; i.e. the timer does not decide pulse density.
Duty-cycle should be monitored for example, to enable feed-back control in the start-up phase.

Use Case
FOT can be used in a PFC with inductor current ZCD in the control loop (See Figure 18).
