17.11 Register Description
17.11.1 TCCR1A – Timer/Counter 1 Control Register A
17.11.2 TCCR3A – Timer/Counter 3 Control Register A
17.11.3 TCCR4A – Timer/Counter 4 Control Register A
17.11.4 TCCR5A – Timer/Counter 5 Control Register A
Bit 7:6 – COMnA1:0: Compare Output Mode for Channel A
Bit 5:4 – COMnB1:0: Compare Output Mode for Channel B
Bit 3:2 – COMnC1:0: Compare Output Mode for Channel C
The COMnA1:0, COMnB1:0, and COMnC1:0 control the output compare pins (OCnA, OCnB, and OCnC respec-
tively) behavior. If one or both of the COMnA1:0 bits are written to one, the OCnA output overrides the normal port
functionality of the I/O pin it is connected to. If one or both of the COMnB1:0 bits are written to one, the OCnB out-
put overrides the normal port functionality of the I/O pin it is connected to. If one or both of the COMnC1:0 bits are
written to one, the OCnC 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 OCnA, OCnB or OCnC pin must be set in
order to enable the output driver.
When the OCnA, OCnB or OCnC is connected to the pin, the function of the COMnx1:0 bits is dependent of the
WGMn3:0 bits setting. Table 17-3 on page 155 shows the COMnx1:0 bit functionality when the WGMn3:0 bits are
set to a normal or a CTC mode (non-PWM).
