40.6.2.2   Comparator
The comparator continuously compares its counter value with the channel period defined by CPRD in the 
 (PWM_CDTYx) to generate an output signal OCx accordingly.
The different properties of the waveform of the output OCx are:
the clock selection. The channel counter is clocked by one of the clocks provided by the clock generator 
described in the previous section. This channel parameter is defined in the CPRE field of the 
 (PWM_CMRx). This field is reset at ‘0’.
the waveform period. This channel parameter is defined in the CPRD field of the PWM_CPRDx register. 
If the waveform is left-aligned, then the output waveform period depends on the counter source clock and 
can be calculated:
By using the PWM peripheral clock divided by an X given prescaler value (with X being 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 
128, 256, 512, or 1024), the resulting period formula will be: 
By using the PWM peripheral clock divided by one of both DIVA or DIVB divider, the formula becomes, 
respectively:
 or
 
If the waveform is center-aligned then the output waveform period depends on the counter source clock and 
can be calculated:
By using the PWM peripheral clock divided by an X given prescaler value
(with X being 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, or 1024). The resulting period formula will be:
By using the PWM peripheral clock divided by one of both DIVA or DIVB divider, the formula becomes, 
respectively:
 or
 
the waveform duty-cycle. This channel parameter is defined in the CDTY field of the PWM_CDTYx 
register. 
If the waveform is left-aligned then:
