14.1.1 Timer Mode
In timer mode, the timer counts an internally generated count source (refer to Table 14.2 Timer Mode
Specifications). Figure 14.4 shows the TXMR Register in Timer Mode.

Table 14.2 Timer Mode Specifications
Item Specification
Count sources f1, f2, f8, fRING
Count operations • Decrement
• When the timer underflows, the contents of the reload register are reloaded
and the count is continued.
Divide ratio 1/(n+1)(m+1) n: value set in PREX register, m: value set in TX register
Count start condition 1 (count starts) is written to the TXS bit in the TXMR register.
Count stop condition 0 (count stops) is written to the TXS bit in the TXMR register.
Interrupt request

When timer X underflows [timer X interrupt].

Read from timer The count value can be read out by reading registers TX and PREX.
Write to timer • When registers TX and PREX are written while the count is stopped, values are
written to both the reload register and counter.
• When registers TX and PREX are written during the count, the value is written
to each reload register of registers TX and PREX at the following count source
input, the data is transferred to the counter at the second count source input,
and the count re-starts at the third count source input.
