Preliminary Specifications REV.B
Specifications in this manual are tentative and subject to change
Timer A
Figure 65:
Timer Ai mode register in event counter mode, two-phase signal
Note 1: The settings of the corresponding port register and port direction register are invalid.
Note 2: This bit is valid when only counting an external signal.
Note 3: Set the corresponding port direction register to 0 .
Note 4: This bit is valid for the timer A3 mode register.
For timer A2 and A4 mode registers, this bit can be 0 or 1 .
Note 5: When performing two-phase pulse signal processing, make sure the two-phase pulse
signal processing operation select bit (address 038416) is set to 1 . Also, always be
sure to set the event/trigger select bit (addresses 038216 and 038316) to 00 .
