Abstract
An apparatus includes a pulsed-width modulation (PWM) generator circuit to generate generally complementary PWM signals. The signals are to prevent two complementary switches that receive the complementary PWM signals from both being activated at a same time. The PWM signals are generally complementary with respect to their active portions. The apparatus includes an override circuit to override at least one of the complementary PWM signals to yield adjusted PWM signals. The adjusted PWM signals are to cause the two complementary switches to be activated at a same time when the adjusted PWM signals are received at the two complementary switches.
