Item
Specification
Count source
External signals input to TBi
IN
pin
Effective edge of count source can be a rising edge, a falling edge, or falling
and rising edges as selected by software
Counts down
When the timer underflows, it reloads the reload register contents before
continuing counting
1/(n+1)
n : Set value
Count start flag is set (= 1)
Count start flag is reset (= 0)
Interrupt request generation timing
The timer underflows
TBi

pin function
Count source input
Read from timer
Count value can be read out by reading timer Bi register
Write to timer
When counting stopped
When a value is written to timer Bi register, it is written to both reload register and counter
When counting 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)
Count operation
Divide ratio
Count start condition
Count stop condition
(2) Event counter mode
In this mode, the timer counts an external signal or an internal timer's overflow. (See Table 1.17.7.)
Figure 1.17.18 shows the timer Bi mode register in event counter mode.

Invalid in event counter mode.
In an attempt to write to this bit, write “0”. The value, if read in
event counter mode, turns out to be indeterminate.

Nothing is assigned (i = 1, 2, 4, 5).
In an attempt to write to this bit, write “0”. The value, if read,
turns out to be indeterminate.
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”.
