How much is PWM resolution as possible using High resoultion Timer_D(256MHz) in MSP430F5132 ?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5132

Hi, everyone.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE: When TDxCL0 is used as period register under high-resolution mode, the four LSB of the TDxCL0 in the 16x case or the three LSB in the 8x case are ignored.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the above is  contents in  MSP430x5xx_user_guide, page 514  ( chapter19. Timer_D > 19.2.4. Timer Mode Control > 19.2.4.1 Up mode > Changing Period Register TDxCL0 )

What does 'four LSB' mean  ?

I don't know whether   it means lower four bit or it means  less values than 16. 

If  'four LSB' means lower four bit ,   I think  that MSP430F5132  support  12bit high resolution  rather than 16 bit high resolution.

Is my conclusion correct ?

best regards.
