 		 #178254 - Implementing 16-bit PWM Using the PCA
Responding to: ???'s previous message
SiLabs has an application note AN107 that is all about using the PCA to generate 16-bit PWMs. You may access it here:

http://www.silabs.com/Support%2.../an107.pdf

The following link points to the downloadable software that goes along with this appnote.

http://www.silabs.com/Support%2...n107sw.zip

The method shown has a small bit of runtime software overhead. This is different from the "set it and run" modes available when 8-bit PWM is used as described in Intel's PCA Cookbook (available here - http://www.8052.com/users/mjk...1.pdf) but for many applications may be ultimately more attractive than adding additional components or ICs to a design.
