CHAPTER 7EVENT PROCESSOR ARRAY
The EPA on the 8XC196Lx is functionally identical to that of the 8XC196Jx; however, the
8XC196Lx has only two capture/compare channels without pins instead of four. In addition, the
83C196LD has no compare-only channels.
7.1 EPA FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
Table 7-1 lists the capture/compare (with and without pins) and compare-only channels for each
device in the 8XC196Lx and 8XC196Kx families.
The 8XC196Lx’s EPA performs input and output functions associated with two timer/counters,
timer 1 and timer 2, as depicted in Figures 7-1 and 7-2.
