6.7 PWM Latch Enable Register (PWM0LER - 0xE001 4050 and PWM1LER 
0xE001 8050)
The PWM Latch Enable registers are used to control the update of the PWM Match 
registers when they are used for PWM generation. When software writes to the location of 
a PWM Match register while the Timer is in PWM mode, the value is actually held in a 
shadow register and not used immediately.
When a PWM Match 0 event occurs (normally also resetting the timer in PWM mode), the 
contents of shadow registers will be transferred to the actual Match registers if the 
corresponding bit in the Latch Enable register has been set. At that point, the new values 
will take effect and determine the course of the next PWM cycle. Once the transfer of new 
values has taken place, all bits of the LER are automatically cleared. Until the 
corresponding bit in the PWMLER is set and a PWM Match 0 event occurs, any value 
written to the PWM Match registers has no effect on PWM operation.
For example, if PWM is configured for double edge operation and is currently running, a 
typical sequence of events for changing the timing would be:
Write a new value to the PWM Match1 register.
Write a new value to the PWM Match2 register.
Write to the PWMLER, setting bits 1 and 2 at the same time.
The altered values will become effective at the next reset of the timer (when a PWM 
Match 0 event occurs).
The order of writing the two PWM Match registers is not important, since neither value will 
be used until after the write to PWMLER. This insures that both values go into effect at the 
same time, if that is required. A single value may be altered in the same way if needed.
The function of each of the bits in the PWMLER is shown in
