9.3.1 Timer Control Register 2
Use the control bits of this register to program input capture functions to detect a
particular edge polarity on the corresponding timer input pin. Each of the input
capture functions can be independently configured to detect rising edges only,
falling edges only, any edge (rising or falling), or to disable the input capture
function. The input capture functions operate independently of each other and can
capture the same TCNT value if the input edges are detected within the same timer
count cycle.
EDGxB and EDGxA — Input Capture Edge Control Bits
There are four pairs of these bits. Each pair is cleared to 0 by reset and must be
encoded to configure the corresponding input capture edge detector circuit. IC4
functions only if the I4/O5 bit in the PACTL register is set. Refer to
Table 9-2
for
timer control configuration.
9.3.2 Timer Input Capture Registers
When an edge has been detected and synchronized, the 16-bit free-running
counter value is transferred into the input capture register pair as a single 16-bit
parallel transfer. Timer counter value captures and timer counter incrementing
occur on opposite half-cycles of the phase 2 clock so that the count value is stable
whenever a capture occurs. The timer input capture registers are not affected by
reset. Input capture values can be read from a pair of 8-bit read-only registers. A
read of the high-order byte of an input capture register pair inhibits a new capture
transfer for one bus cycle. If a double-byte read instruction, such as load double
accumulator D (LDD), is used to read the captured value, coherency is assured.
When a new input capture occurs immediately after a high-order byte read, transfer
is delayed for an additional cycle but the value is not lost.
