(COMn1:0 = 1)
An interrupt can be generated each time the counter value reaches the TOP value by using the OCF2
Flag. If the interrupt is enabled, the interrupt handler routine can be used for updating the TOP value.
However, changing the TOP to a value close to BOTTOM when the counter is running with none or a low
prescaler value must be done with care since the CTC mode does not have the double buffering feature.
If the new value written to OCR2 is lower than the current value of TCNT2, the counter will miss the
Compare Match. The counter will then have to count to its maximum value (0xFF) and wrap around
starting at 0x00 before the Compare Match can occur.
For generating a waveform output in CTC mode, the OC2 output can be set to toggle its logical level on
each Compare Match by setting the Compare Output mode bits to toggle mode (COM21:0 = 1). The OC2
value will not be visible on the port pin unless the data direction for the pin is set to output. The waveform
generated will have a maximum frequency of f
OC2
= f
clk_I/O
/2 when OCR2 is set to zero (0x00). The
waveform frequency is defined by the following equation:
OCn
=
clk_I/O
2
1 + OCRn
The N variable represents the prescaler factor (1, 8, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 1024).
As for the Normal mode of operation, the TOV2 Flag is set in the same timer clock cycle that the counter
counts from MAX to 0x00.
20.7.3. Fast PWM Mode
The fast Pulse Width Modulation or fast PWM mode (WGM21:0 = 3) provides a high frequency PWM
waveform generation option. The fast PWM differs from the other PWM option by its single-slope
operation. The counter counts from BOTTOM to MAX then restarts from BOTTOM. In non-inverting
Compare Output mode, the Output Compare (OC2) is cleared on the Compare Match between TCNT2
and OCR2, and set at BOTTOM. In inverting Compare Output mode, the output is set on Compare Match
and cleared at BOTTOM. Due to the single-slope operation, the operating frequency of the fast PWM
mode can be twice as high as the phase correct PWM mode that uses dual-slope operation. This high
frequency makes the fast PWM mode well suited for power regulation, rectification, and DAC
applications. High frequency allows physically small sized external components (coils, capacitors), and
therefore reduces total system cost.
In fast PWM mode, the counter is incremented until the counter value matches the MAX value. The
counter is then cleared at the following timer clock cycle. The timing diagram for the fast PWM mode is
shown in the following figure. The TCNT2 value is in the timing diagram shown as a histogram for
illustrating the single-slope operation. The diagram includes non-inverted and inverted PWM outputs. The
