Timer/Counter Interrupt Flag
Register – TIFR
Note:
1. This register contains flag bits for several Timer/Counters, but only Timer1 bits are
described in this section. The remaining bits are described in their respective timer
sections.
Bit 7 – TOV1: Timer/Counter1, Overflow Flag
The setting of this flag is dependent of the WGM13:0 bits setting. In Normal and CTC
for the TOV1 Flag behavior when using another WGM13:0 bit setting.
TOV1 is automatically cleared when the Timer/Counter1 Overflow Interrupt Vector is
executed. Alternatively, TOV1 can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location.
Bit 6 – OCF1A: Timer/Counter1, Output Compare A Match Flag
This flag is set in the timer clock cycle after the counter (TCNT1) value matches the Out-
put Compare Register A (OCR1A).
Note that a Forced Output Compare (FOC1A) strobe will not set the OCF1A Flag.
OCF1A is automatically cleared when the Output Compare Match A Interrupt Vector is
executed. Alternatively, OCF1A can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location.
Bit 5 – OCF1B: Timer/Counter1, Output Compare B Match Flag
This flag is set in the timer clock cycle after the counter (TCNT1) value matches the Out-
put Compare Register B (OCR1B).
Note that a Forced Output Compare (FOC1B) strobe will not set the OCF1B Flag.
OCF1B is automatically cleared when the Output Compare Match B Interrupt vector is
executed. Alternatively, OCF1B can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location.
Bit 3 – ICF1: Timer/Counter1, Input Capture Flag
This flag is set when a capture event occurs on the ICP1 pin. When the Input Capture
Register (ICR1) is set by the WGM13:0 to be used as the TOP value, the ICF1 Flag is
set when the counter reaches the TOP value.
ICF1 is automatically cleared when the Input Capture Interrupt Vector is executed. Alter-
natively, ICF1 can be cleared by writing a logic one to its bit location.
