For a setup with 7 (later more) BLDC Motors i need some more PWM channels. The TriCore is having them so it's my choice for development.
But how would I access those ports at the Shieldbuddy?
A) Is there any addition breakout?
B) How would I access them in the Arduino IDE? (Pin Names)
Thank you,
Bart

You can get more PWM channels on pins 25 to 39 (double row connector). These are not supported by the Arduino analogOut() function though. You could use the iLLD PWM functions to drive these pins. We could add these pins to the analogOut() but it would take a week or so.

Sound like what I am looking for. Thank you.
Can I use those iLLD functions through the Arduino IDE in any way ?
(Switching to the eclipse IDE would be a tradeoff in time at this project stage (proof of concept))
I think more PWM channels are a very interesting feature and something very unique about the TriCore!
E.g. Drones with a camera gimbals also have a need for 7x3 PWM or more fast channels.
That would be great and IMHO useful to many people and it would free a SPI channel if needed.

Are you checking on this ?

Yes we are still working on this. It will take another week or so do it!

You can get PWM using analogOut() on pins2 - 12 and 22-28.
