11.4.3.2 Buffered Output Compare
MC68HC908MR24 — Rev. 4.1
Freescale Semiconductor
NOTE:
Channels 0 and 1 can be linked to form a buffered output compare
channel whose output appears on the PTE4/TCH0A pin. The TIMA
channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the output.
Setting the MS0B bit in TIMA channel 0 status and control register
(TASC0) links channel 0 and channel 1. The output compare value in the
TIMA channel 0 registers initially controls the output on the
PTE4/TCH0A pin. Writing to the TIMA channel 1 registers enables the
TIMA channel 1 registers to synchronously control the output after the
TIMA overflows. At each subsequent overflow, the TIMA channel
registers (0 or 1) that control the output are the ones written to last.
TASC0 controls and monitors the buffered output compare function, and
TIMA channel 1 status and control register (TASC1) is unused. While the
MS0B bit is set, the channel 1 pin, PTE5/TCH1A, is available as a
general-purpose I/O pin.
Channels 2 and 3 can be linked to form a buffered output compare
channel whose output appears on the PTE6/TCH2A pin. The TIMA
channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the output.
Setting the MS2B bit in TIMA channel 2 status and control register
(TASC2) links channel 2 and channel 3. The output compare value in the
TIMA channel 2 registers initially controls the output on the
PTE6/TCH2A pin. Writing to the TIMA channel 3 registers enables the
TIMA channel 3 registers to synchronously control the output after the
TIMA overflows. At each subsequent overflow, the TIMA channel
registers (2 or 3) that control the output are the ones written to last.
TASC2 controls and monitors the buffered output compare function, and
TIMA channel 3 status and control register (TASC3) is unused. While the
MS2B bit is set, the channel 3 pin, PTE7/TCH3A, is available as a
general-purpose I/O pin.
In buffered output compare operation, do not write new output compare
values to the currently active channel registers. Writing to the active
channel registers is the same as generating unbuffered output
compares.
