"pwm timer counter". AFAIU, the IP can be configured to provide all 3.
I think that William pointed out on an earlier revision that they have
only implemented the pwm on their hardware.
I don't think putting in "ptc" is a sufficient differentiator though, as
clearly there could be several different versions of "ptc-pwm" that have
the same concern about "all designs from OpenCores for now till the next
100 years" being compatible.
