Section 13 Timer Z 
The timer Z has a 16-bit timer with two channels. Figures 13.1, 13.2, and 13.3 show the block 
diagrams of entire timer Z, its channel 0, and its channel 1, respectively. For details on the timer Z 
functions, refer to table 13.1. 
13.1 Features 
•  Capability to process up to eight inputs/outputs 
•  Eight general registers (GR): four registers for each channel 
  Independently assignable output compare or input capture functions 
•  Selection of five counter clock sources: four internal clocks (φ, φ/2, φ/4, and φ/8) and an 
external clock 
•  Seven selectable operating modes 
  Output compare function 
Selection of 0 output, 1 output, or toggle output 
  Input capture function 
Rising edge, falling edge, or both edges 
  Synchronous operation 
Timer counters_0 and _1 (TCNT_0 and TCNT_1) can be written simultaneously. 
Simultaneous clearing by compare match or input capture is possible. 
  PWM mode 
Up to six-phase PWM output can be provided with desired duty ratio. 
  Reset synchronous PWM mode 
Three-phase PWM output for normal and counter phases 
  Complementary PWM mode 
Three-phase PWM output for non-overlapped normal and counter phases 
The A/D conversion start trigger can be set for PWM cycles. 
  Buffer operation 
The input capture register can be consisted of double buffers. 
The output compare register can automatically be modified. 
•  High-speed access by the internal 16-bit bus 
  16-bit TCNT and GR registers can be accessed in high speed by a 16-bit bus interface 
•  Any initial timer output value can be set 
•  Output of the timer is disabled by external trigger
