Jon said:Hehe. I was just needing a faster PWM (wanted to use a very
cheap RC, 20db/decade rolloff, low-pass, but needed an audio
spectrum. Couldn't get there with 1/62500 PWM period of
standard MSP430. So I looked and... cripes!! They had
something else!
"Timer D also includes a dual capture mode reducing loading
of capture operation by half. In addition, the combining
compare blocks help to control both rising and falling edges
of the PWMoutput signal. The Timer-Event-Control-block offers
external triggering options as well as internal
synchronization of timer instances."
See the MSP430F51x2 parts.

Quote, page 511, Time_D Operation: "The timer input clock frequency can
be within the range of 8 MHz to 16 MHz if 16x is selected (TDHMx = 00)
or 8 MHz to 25 MHz if 8x (TDHMx = 01) is selected".
That would be an order of magnitude less than 256MHz. Or am I missing
something here?
