Cross Triggering Unit (CTU)

Freescale Semiconductor 33-9
Whenever a flag is set in a particular counter group, the corresponding counter loads the value from one 
of the start value registers depending on the delay selection bits. An acknowledgement signal is sent to 
eMIOS/PIT to clear the flag. In case more than one flag is set in the same counter group, the lower index 
flag is given priority and the corresponding delay value is loaded into the counter.
The acknowledgment signal can be forced to ‘1’ by setting the CLR_FLAG bit of the CTU_EVTCFGRn 
register. These bits are implemented for only those input flags to which PIT flags are connected. The 
purpose to provide these bits is to have the option of clearing PIT flags by software.
In summary, two levels of arbitration are done before the channel number and trigger are provided to the 
ADC:
