ATmega48A/PA/88A/PA/168A/PA/328/P [DATASHEET]
Atmel-8271H-AVR- ATmega-Datasheet_08/2014
Note: 1. A special case occurs when OCR0B equals TOP and COM0B1 is set. In this case, the Compare Match is
ignored, but the set or clear is done at TOP. See ”Phase Correct PWM Mode” on page 101 for more details.
• Bits 3, 2 – Reserved
These bits are reserved bits in the ATmega48A/PA/88A/PA/168A/PA/328/P and will always read as zero.
• Bits 1:0 – WGM01:0: Waveform Generation Mode
Combined with the WGM02 bit found in the TCCR0B Register, these bits control the counting sequence of the
counter, the source for maximum (TOP) counter value, and what type of waveform generation to be used, see
Table 15-8. Modes of operation supported by the Timer/Counter unit are: Normal mode (counter), Clear Timer
on Compare Match (CTC) mode, and two types of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) modes (see ”Modes of
Operation” on page 99).
Notes: 1. MAX = 0xFF
2. BOTTOM = 0x00
