Timer Interface Module (TIM)

Freescale Semiconductor Timer Interface Module (TIM) 207
NOTE: Before enabling a TIM channel register for input capture operation, make 
sure that the TCHx pin is stable for at least two bus clocks. User software 
should also clear CHxF before setting CHxIE to avoid any false 
interrupts.
TOVx — Toggle On Overflow Bit
When channel x is an output compare channel, this read/write bit 
controls the behavior of the channel x output when the TIM counter 
overflows. When channel x is an input capture channel, TOVx has no 
effect. Reset clears the TOVx bit.
1 = Channel x pin toggles on TIM counter overflow
0 = Channel x pin does not toggle on TIM counter overflow
NOTE: When TOVx is set, a TIM counter overflow takes precedence over a 
channel x output compare if both occur at the same time.
CHxMAX — Channel x Maximum Duty Cycle Bit
When the TOVx bit is at logic 1, setting the CHxMAX bit forces the 
duty cycle of buffered and unbuffered PWM signals to 100%. As 
Figure 11-11 shows, the CHxMAX bit takes effect in the cycle after it 
is set or cleared. The output stays at the 100% duty cycle level until 
the cycle after CHxMAX is cleared.

11.10.5 TIM Channel Registers
These read/write registers contain the captured TIM counter value of the 
input capture function or the output compare value of the output 
compare function. The state of the TIM channel registers after reset is 
unknown.
