17.2.4 Timer Reference Registers (TRR1ÐTRR4)

Each timer reference register (TRR1ÐTRR4), shown in Figure 17-6, contains the timeoutÕs

reference value. The reference value is not reached until TCNx increments to equal the

timeout reference value.

10 OM Output mode
0Active-low pulse on TOUTx for one timer input clock cycle as deÞned by the ICLK bits. Thus,
TOUTx may be low for one general system clock period, one general system clock/16 period, or
one TINx clock cycle period. TOUTx changes occur on the rising edge of the system clock.
1Toggle TOUTx. TOUTx changes occur on the rising edge of the system clock.
11 ORI Output reference interrupt enable.
0Disable interrupt for reference reached (does not affect interrupt on capture function).
1Enable interrupt upon reaching the reference value.
12 FRR Free run/restart.
0Free run. The timer count continues to increment after the reference value is reached.
1Restart. The timer count is reset immediately after the reference value is reached.
13Ð14 ICLK Input clock source for the timer.
00 Internally cascaded input. For TMR1, the timer 1 input is the output of timer 2. For TMR3, the
timer 3 input is the output of timer 4. For TMR2 and TMR4, this selection means no input clock is
provided to the timer.
01 Internal general system clock.
10 Internal general system clock divided by 16.
11 Corresponding TINx: TIN1, TIN2, TIN3, or TIN4 (falling edge).
15 GE Gate enable.
0TGA
TEx is ignored.
1TGA
TEx is used to control the timer.
