Item Specification
Count source f1, f2, f8, f32, fC32
Count operation • Decrement
• When the timer underflows, it reloads the reload register contents and continues counting
Divide ratio 1/(n+1) n: set value of TAi register (i= 0 to 4) 000016 to FFFF16
Count start condition Set TAiS bit in the TABSR register to 1 (start counting)
Count stop condition Set TAiS bit to 0 (stop counting)
Interrupt request generation timing Timer underflow
TAiIN pin function I/O port or gate input
TAiOUT pin function I/O port or pulse output
Read from timer Count value can be read by reading TAi register
Write to timer • When not counting and until the 1st count source is input after counting start
Value written to TAi register is written to both reload register and counter
• When counting (after 1st count source input)
Value written to TAi register is written to only reload register
(Transferred to counter when reloaded next)
Select function • Gate function
Counting can be started and stopped by an input signal to TAiIN pin
• Pulse output function
Whenever the timer underflows, the output polarity of TAiOUT pin is inverted.
When not counting, the pin outputs a low.
12.1.1 Timer Mode
In timer mode, the timer counts a count source generated internally (see Table 12.1). Figure 12.7 shows
TAiMR register in timer mode.
Table 12.1 Specifications in Timer Mode

NOTE:
1. The port direction bit for the TAi
IN pin must be set to 0 ( input mode).
