6.3.3 Timer Control Registers (TxCON and GPTCONA/B)
The addresses of the GP timer registers are given in Table 6–3 and Table 6–4
on page 6-11. The bit definition of the individual GP timer control registers,
TxCON, is shown in Figure 6–9. The bit definition of the overall GP timer con-
trol registers, GPTCONA and GPTCONB, are shown in Figure 6–10 (on
page 6-33) and Figure 6–11 (on page 6-34), respectively.
