Table 18-7 shows the COM2B1:0 bit functionality when the WGM22:0 bits are set to phase correct PWM mode.
Note: 1. A special case occurs when OCR2B equals TOP and COM2B1 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 157 for more details.
• Bits 3:2 – Reserved
These bits are reserved in the ATmega48A/PA/88A/PA/168A/PA/328/P and will always read as zero.
• Bits 1:0 – WGM21:0: Waveform Generation Mode
Combined with the WGM22 bit found in the TCCR2B 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 18-8. 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 155).
Notes: 1. MAX= 0xFF
2. BOTTOM= 0x00
