Bit 7 – FOCnA: Force Output Compare for Channel A
• Bit 6 – FOCnB: Force Output Compare for Channel B
• Bit 5 – FOCnC: Force Output Compare for Channel C
The FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC bits are only active when the WGMn3:0 bits specifies a
non-PWM mode. When writing a logical one to the FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC bit, an
immediate compare match is forced on the waveform generation unit. The
OCnA/OCnB/OCnC output is changed according to its COMnx1:0 bits setting. Note that
the FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC bits are implemented as strobes. Therefore it is the value
present in the COMnx1:0 bits that determine the effect of the forced compare.
A FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC strobe will not generate any interrupt nor will it clear the timer
in Clear Timer on Compare Match (CTC) mode using OCRnA as TOP.
The FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnB bits are always read as zero.

Bit 4:0 – Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved for future use. For ensuring compatibility with future devices,
these bits must be written to zero when TCCRnC is written.
