Abstract
A pulsed width generator provides a plurality of pulse width modulated signals based upon a reference frequency generated by a phase locked loop. A comparator watches for certain number of pulses of the reference frequency to generate an output signal which is compiled to a pulse width modulation circuit which provides a pulse width modulated signal. A sequencer may be used to control the start and stop times of each phase independently.
