Comparison of PWMOUT vs HPWM on M2

I am moving on to the pwm piece of my project. If I have the need for 2 pwm channels at different duty cycles; can I even use hpwm as "single" is not a choice on the m2?

20M2B.1, C.2 (C.3, C.5 share the servo timer)

If I were to use pwmout can time 1 drive C.2 and time 2 drive C.3 to permit two different duty cycles.Realistically the pwm will swing in duty cycle but the other pwmout may stop completely. Does merely engaging pwm on c3 make sacrifice the use of c.5?

You can have up to 3 completely independent pwmout simultaneously (assuming not using servo). C.3 and C.5 can be configured as either one or both, but if both they will share the same frequency generator timer.

Hpwm is primarily designed for motor driving via push/pull pairs, for independent channels use pwmout
