Chapter 21: LPC176x/5x Timer 0/1/2/3
21.6.7 Match Registers (MR0 - MR3)
The Match register values are continuously compared to the Timer Counter value. When
the two values are equal, actions can be triggered automatically. The action possibilities
are to generate an interrupt, reset the Timer Counter, or stop the timer. Actions are
controlled by the settings in the MCR register.
21.6.8 Match Control Register (T[0/1/2/3]MCR - 0x4000 4014, 0x4000 8014,
0x4009 0014, 0x4009 4014)
The Match Control Register is used to control what operations are performed when one of
the Match Registers matches the Timer Counter. The function of each of the bits is shown
in Table 429
.
Table 429. Match Control Register (T[0/1/2/3]MCR - addresses 0x4000 4014, 0x4000 8014, 0x4009 0014, 0x4009 4014)
