Secondly the COM1x1:0 bits control the OC1x pin output source. Figure 17-5 shows a simplified
schematic of the logic affected by the COM1x1:0 bit setting. The I/O Registers, I/O bits, and I/O
pins in the figure are shown in bold. Only the parts of the general I/O Port Control Registers
(DDR and PORT) that are affected by the COM1x1:0 bits are shown. When referring to the
OC1x state, the reference is for the internal OC1x Register, not the OC1x pin. If a system reset
occur, the OC1x Register is reset to “0”.
Figure 17-5. Compare Match Output Unit, Schematic
The general I/O port function is overridden by the Output Compare (OC1x) from the Waveform
Generator if either of the COM1x1:0 bits are set. However, the OC1x pin direction (input or out-
put) is still controlled by the Data Direction Register (DDR) for the port pin. The Data Direction
Register bit for the OC1x pin (DDR_OC1x) must be set as output before the OC1x value is visi-
ble on the pin. The port override function is generally independent of the Waveform Generation
mode, but there are some exceptions. Refer to Table 17-2, Table 17-3 and Table 17-4 for
details.
The design of the Output Compare pin logic allows initialization of the OC1x state before the out-
put is enabled. Note that some COM1x1:0 bit settings are reserved for certain modes of
operation. See “Register Description” on page 123.
The COM1x1:0 bits have no effect on the Input Capture unit.
17.8.1 Compare Output Mode and Waveform Generation
The Waveform Generator uses the COM1x1:0 bits differently in normal, CTC, and PWM modes.
For all modes, setting the COM1x1:0 = 0 tells the Waveform Generator that no action on the
OC1x Register is to be performed on the next compare match. For compare output actions in the
non-PWM modes refer to Table 17-2 on page 123. For fast PWM mode refer to Table 17-3 on
page 124, and for phase correct and phase and frequency correct PWM refer to Table 17-4 on
page 124.
