Bit 3 – Reserved
This bit is unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write this bit to zero when this
register is written.
Bit 2:0 – WGMODE[2:0]: Waveform Generation Mode
These bits select the waveform generation mode, and control the counting sequence of the counter, TOP value,
UPDATE condition, interrupt/event condition, and type of waveform that is generated according to Table 13-4.
No waveform generation is performed in the normal mode of operation. For all other modes, the result from the waveform
generator will only be directed to the port pins if the corresponding CCxEN bit has been set to enable this. The port pin
direction must be set as output.
Table 13-4. Timer waveform generation mode.
13.12.3 CTRLC – Control register C
Bit 7:4 – Reserved
These bits are unused and reserved for future use. For compatibility with future devices, always write these bits to zero
when this register is written.
Bit 3:0 – CMPx: Compare Output Value x
These bits allow direct access to the waveform generator's output compare value when the timer/counter is set in the
OFF state. This is used to set or clear the WG output value when the timer/counter is not running.
