Bit 7 – FOC3A: Force Output Compare for channel A
Bit 6 – FOC3B: Force Output Compare for channel B
Bit 5 – FOC3C: Force Output Compare for channel C
The FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC bits are only active when the WGMn3:0 bits specifies a non-PWM mode.
When writing a logical one to the FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC bit, an immediate compare match is forced on
the waveform generation unit. The OCnA/OCnB/OCnC output is changed according to its COMnx1:0 bits
setting. Note that the FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC bits are implemented as strobes. Therefore it is the value
present in the COMnx1:0 bits that determine the effect of the forced compare.
A FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnC strobe will not generate any interrupt nor will it clear the timer in Clear Timer on
Compare Match (CTC) mode using OCRnA as TOP.
The FOCnA/FOCnB/FOCnB bits are always read as zero.
