Count source
External signals input to TBiIN pin
Effective edge of count source can be a rising edge or falling edge or both as
selected by software
Count operation
Count down
When the timer underflows, it reloads the reload register content before conti-
nous counting.
Divide ratio
1/(n + 1)
n: Set value
Count start condition
Count start flag is set (=i)
Count stop condition
Count start flag is reset (=0)
Interrupt request
generation timing
The timer underflows.
TBiIN pin function
Count source input
Read from timer
Count value can be read out by reading Timer Bi register
Write to timer
When counting stops
When a value is written to Timer Bi register, it is written to both reload register
and counter.
When counting is in progress
When a value is written to Timer Bi register, it is written to only reload register.
(Transferred to counter at next reload time).

Nothing is assigned (i = 1, 2, 4, 5).
Note 1: Valid only when input from the TBi IN pin is selected as the event clock.
If timer's overflow is selected, this bit can be “0” or “1”.
Note 2: Timer B0, Timer B3.
Note 3: Timer B1, Timer B2, Timer B4, Timer B5.
Note 4: Set the corresponding port direction register to “0”.
Invalid in event counter mode.
Can be “0” or “1”.

(Note 3)
Write "0" when writing to this bit. If read, the value
is indeterminate.
