16.4.2.7 TIMER EVENT REGISTERS. Each of the 16-bit, memory-mapped timer event
registers (TER1–TER4) are used to report events recognized by the timers. When an output
reference event is recognized, the timer sets the REF bit, regardless of the corresponding
ORI bit in the TMRx register. The capture event is only set if it is enabled by the CE field in
the TMRx register. These registers can be read at any time and are cleared at reset. A bit
is reset by writing a 1 (writing a zero has no effect) and more than one bit can be reset at a
time. However, both bits must be reset before the timer can negate the interrupt to the CPM
interrupt controller.
Bits 0–13—Reserved
These bits are reserved and must be set to 0.
REF—Output Reference Event
This bit signifies that the counter has reached the value in the TRRx register. The ORI bit in
the TMRx register is used to enable the interrupt request caused by this event.
CAP—Capture Event
This bit signifies that the counter value has been latched into the TCRx register. The CE field
in the TMRx register is used to enable generation of this event.
16.4.3 Initializing the Timers
The following is an example of timer 2’s initialization sequence that is required to generate
an interrupt every 10 microseconds, assuming a 25MHz general system clock. An interrupt
must be generated after each 250 system clock.

2. Write 0x001A to the TMR2. This enables the timer’s prescaler to divide by 1 and sets
3. Write 0x0000 to the TCN2. This initializes the timer 2 count to zero (default state of this
