PCA Compare/Capture Module Mode Registers. These five registers select the operating mode of the corresponding compare/capture module. Each register also contains an enable interrupt bit (ECCFx) for generating an interrupt request when the module’s compare/capture flag (CCFx in the CCON register) is set. See Table 9-3 on page 9-14 for mode select bit combinations.

Reserved:

 

 

The value read from this bit is indeterminate. Write a zero to this bit.

ECOMx

Compare Modes:

 

 

ECOMx = 1 enables the module comparator function. The comparator is

 

 

used to implement the software timer, high-speed output, pulse width

 

 

modulation, and watchdog timer modes.

CAPPx

Capture Mode (Positive):

 

 

CAPPx = 1 enables the capture function with capture triggered by a

 

 

positive edge on pin CEXx.

 

 

 

4

CAPNx

Capture Mode (Negative):

 

 

CAPNx = 1 enables the capture function with capture triggered by a

 

 

negative edge on pin CEXx.

 

 

 

3

MATx

Match:

 

 

Set ECOMx and MATx to implement the software timer mode. When

 

 

MATx = 1, a match of the PCA timer/counter with the compare/capture

 

 

register sets the CCFx bit in the CCON register, flagging an interrupt.

 

 

 

2

TOGx

Toggle:

 

 

Set ECOMx, MATx, and TOGx to implement the high-speed output

 

 

mode. When TOGx = 1, a match of the PCA timer/counter with the

 

 

compare/capture register toggles the CEXx pin.

 

 

 

1

PWMx

Pulse Width Modulation Mode:

 

 

PWMx = 1 configures the module for operation as an 8-bit pulse width

 

 

modulator with output waveform on the CEXx pin.

 

 

 

0

ECCFx

Enable CCFx Interrupt:

 

 

Enables compare/capture flag CCFx in the CCON register to generate

 

 

an interrupt request.
