3.3.3 Controlling Multiple Buck Converters With Independent Frequencies
One of the simplest power converter topologies is the buck. A single ePWM module configured as a
master can control two buck stages with the same PWM frequency. If independent frequency control is
required for each buck converter, then one ePWM module must be allocated for each converter stage.
Figure 3-47 shows four buck stages, each running at independent frequencies. In this case, all four ePWM
modules are configured as Masters and no synchronization is used. Figure 3-48 shows the waveforms
generated by the setup shown in Figure 3-47; note that only three waveforms are shown, although there
are four stages.
