    right...

    So, if TMR6 is setup to feed the PWM's... and 'overflows' @ 80KHz...
    If the PWM's were 8 bit then i'd expect a cycle frequency of 312.5Hz...
    If the PWM's were 10bit then i'd expect a cycle frequency of 78.125Hz...

    Where on earth are these stupid decimals coming from?
    Who on earth made a PWM system so complicated?
    and which idiot approved their design?

    If the hardware is static 10bit... why the hell would the datasheet even suggest any other resolution? I don't even understand how you couldn't use 10bit resolution on hardware PWM...

    I really don't understand how these PWMs work... They are backward and alien to me...

    So, can someone please explain in English how to setup the PWMs (ie how the hell you get a different bit resolution)?

    Thanks
