CHAPTER 9 8-BIT TIMER/EVENT COUNTERS 1 AND 2
Figure 9-13. Square-Wave Output Operation Timing
Note The initial value of TO2 pin output can be set with the bits 6 and 7 (LVR2, LVS2) of 8-bit timer output control
register (TOC1).
9.5 Cautions on 8-Bit Timer/Event Counters 1 and 2
(1) Timer start errors
An error with a maximum of one clock may occur concerning the time required for a match signal to be
generated after timer start. This is because 8-bit timer registers 1 and 2 (TM1 and TM2) starts asynchronously
with the count pulse.
