PWM1

The PWM signal is the control input for the Channel 1 driver. The PWM signal can enter three distinct states during

operation, see the three-state PWM Input section under DESCRIPTION for further details. Connect this pin to the PWM

output of the controller.

216

PWM2

The PWM signal is the control input for the Channel 2 driver. The PWM signal can enter three distinct states during

operation, see the three-state PWM Input section under DESCRIPTION for further details. Connect this pin to the PWM

output of the controller.
