20X2 HPWM 'half' workarounds?

[pxgator]

Just wondering if there are any workarounds yet for the non-functioning HPWM half mode. It sure is a versatile chip and I would like to use it for
driving half-bridge circuits for both SMPS and motor control.

There is a workround. Once I've verified it I will report back.

Right On

Thank you kind Sir. This works great. I have it hooked up to my scope and with a value of 10 the deadband is about 4 microseconds. Hooray for Picaxe tech support!
