Abstract
A pulse width modulation (PWM) signal generation circuit and method are disclosed herein. The PWM signal generation circuit includes an integer part pulse generation circuit, and a fractional part pulse generation circuit. The integer part pulse generation circuit generates an integer part pulse using the integer part of the digitized value of a duty cycle, i.e., the ratio of the time during which any one of high and low levels is maintained to the period of a PWM signal. The fractional part pulse generation circuit generates the PWM signal using the integer part pulse and the fractional part of the digitized value of the duty cycle.
