9.1.4
In general, TPM channels may be independently configured to operate in input capture, output compare,
or edge-aligned PWM modes. A control bit allows the whole TPM (all channels) to switch to
center-aligned PWM mode. When center-aligned PWM mode is selected, input capture, output compare,
and edge-aligned PWM functions are not available on any channels of this TPM module.
When the microcontroller is in active BDM background or BDM foreground mode, the TPM temporarily
suspends all counting until the microcontroller returns to normal user operating mode. During stop mode,
all system clocks, including the main oscillator, are stopped; therefore, the TPM is effectively disabled
until clocks resume. During wait mode, the TPM continues to operate normally. Provided the TPM does
not need to produce a real time reference or provide the interrupt source(s) needed to wake the MCU from
wait mode, the user can save power by disabling TPM functions before entering wait mode.
This is a high-level description only. Detailed descriptions of operating modes are in later sections.

Input capture mode
When a selected edge event occurs on the associated MCU pin, the current value of the 16-bit timer
counter is captured into the channel value register and an interrupt flag bit is set. Rising edges,
falling edges, any edge, or no edge (disable channel) may be selected as the active edge which
triggers the input capture.
Output compare mode
When the value in the timer counter register matches the channel value register, an interrupt flag
bit is set, and a selected output action is forced on the associated MCU pin. The output compare
action may be selected to force the pin to zero, force the pin to one, toggle the pin, or ignore the
pin (used for software timing functions).
Edge-aligned PWM mode
The value of a 16-bit modulo register plus 1 sets the period of the PWM output signal. The channel
value register sets the duty cycle of the PWM output signal. The user may also choose the polarity
of the PWM output signal. Interrupts are available at the end of the period and at the duty-cycle
transition point. This type of PWM signal is called edge-aligned because the leading edges of all
PWM signals are aligned with the beginning of the period, which is the same for all channels within
a TPM.
Center-aligned PWM mode
Twice the value of a 16-bit modulo register sets the period of the PWM output, and the
channel-value register sets the half-duty-cycle duration. The timer counter counts up until it
reaches the modulo value and then counts down until it reaches zero. As the count matches the
channel value register while counting down, the PWM output becomes active. When the count
matches the channel value register while counting up, the PWM output becomes inactive. This type
of PWM signal is called center-aligned because the centers of the active duty cycle periods for all
channels are aligned with a count value of zero. This type of PWM is required for types of motors
used in small appliances.
