Note: 1. A special case occurs when OCR0A equals TOP and COM0A1 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 134 for more details.
• Bits 5:4 – COM0B1:0: Compare Match Output B Mode
These bits control the Output Compare pin (OC0B) behavior. If one or both of the COM0B1:0 bits are set, the
OC0B output overrides the normal port functionality of the I/O pin it is connected to. However, note that the Data
Direction Register (DDR) bit corresponding to the OC0B pin must be set in order to enable the output driver.
When OC0B is connected to the pin, the function of the COM0B1:0 bits depends on the WGM02:0 bit setting.
Table 15-5 shows the COM0B1:0 bit functionality when the WGM02:0 bits are set to a normal or CTC mode
(non-PWM).
Table 15-6 shows the COM0B1:0 bit functionality when the WGM02:0 bits are set to fast PWM mode.
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 ”Fast PWM Mode” on page 108 for more details.
Table 15-7 shows the COM0B1:0 bit functionality when the WGM02:0 bits are set to phase correct PWM mode.
