If the fault control and fault input n are enabled and a rising edge at the fault input n
signal is detected, a fault condition has occurred and the FAULTFn bit is set. The
FAULTF bit is the logic OR of FAULTFn[3:0] bits. See the following figure.

Figure 39-72. FAULTF and FAULTIN bits and fault interrupt
If the fault control is enabled (FAULTM[1:0] ≠0:0), a fault condition has occurred and
(FAULTEN = 1), then outputs are forced to their safe values:
• Channel (n) output takes the value of POL(n)
• Channel (n+1) takes the value of POL(n+1)
The fault interrupt is generated when (FAULTF = 1) and (FAULTIE = 1). This interrupt
request remains set until:
• Software clears the FAULTF bit by reading FAULTF bit as 1 and writing 0 to it
• Software clears the FAULTIE bit
• A reset occurs

Automatic fault clearing
If the automatic fault clearing is selected (FAULTM[1:0] = 1:1), then the channels output
disabled by fault control is again enabled when the fault input signal (FAULTIN) returns
to zero and a new PWM cycle begins. See the following figure.
