Figure 7 - 45 Operation Procedure of Interval Timer/Square Wave Output Function (1/2)
(Remark is listed on the next page.)
Software Operation Hardware Status
TAU 
default 
setting
Input clock supply for timer array unit m is stopped
(Clock supply is stopped and writing to each register 
is disabled.)
Sets the TAUmEN bit of peripheral enable register 0 
(PER0) to 1. Input clock supply for timer array unit m is supplied
(Clock supply is started and writing to each register is 
enabled.)
Sets timer clock select register m (TPSm).
Determines clock frequencies of CKm0 to CKm3.
Channel 
default 
setting
Sets timer mode register mn (TMRmn) (determines 
operation mode of channel).
Sets interval (period) value to timer data register mn 
(TDRmn).
Channel stops operating.
(Clock is supplied and some power is consumed.)
To use the TOmn output
Clears the TOMmn bit of timer output mode register m 
(TOMm) to 0 (master channel output mode).
Clears the TOLmn bit to 0.
Sets the TOmn bit and determines default level of the 
TOmn output.
Sets the TOEmn bit to 1 and enables operation of 
TOmn.
Clears the port register and port mode register to 0.
The TOmn pin goes into Hi-Z output state.
The TOmn default setting level is output when the port 
mode register is in the output mode and the port register 
is 0.
TOmn does not change because channel stops 
operating.
The TOmn pin outputs the TOmn set level.
Operation is resumed.
Operation 
start
(Sets the TOEmn bit to 1 only if using TOmn output and 
resuming operation.).
Sets the TSmn (TSHm1, TSHm3) bit to 1.
The TSmn (TSHm1, TSHm3) bit automatically returns 
to 0 because it is a trigger bit.
TEmn (TEHm1, TEHm3) = 1, and count operation 
starts.
Value of the TDRmn register is loaded to timer count 
register mn (TCRmn). INTTMmn is generated and 
TOmn performs toggle operation if the MDmn0 bit of 
the TMRmn register is 1.
During 
operation
Set value of the TDRmn register can be changed.
The TCRmn register can always be read.
The TSRmn register is not used.
Set values of the TOm and TOEm registers can be 
changed.
Set values of the TMRmn register, TOMmn, and TOLmn 
bits cannot be changed.
Counter (TCRmn) counts down. When count value 
reaches 0000H, the value of the TDRmn register is 
loaded to the TCRmn register again and the count 
operation is continued. By detecting TCRmn = 0000H, 
INTTMmn is generated and TOmn performs toggle 
operation.
After that, the above operation is repeated.
Operation 
stop
The TTmn (TTHm1, TTHm3) bit is set to 1.
The TTmn (TTHm1, TTHm3) bit automatically returns 
to 0 because it is a trigger bit.
TEmn (TEHm1, TEHm3), and count operation stops.
The TCRmn register holds count value and stops.
The TOmn output is not initialized but holds current 
status.
The TOEmn bit is cleared to 0 and value is set to the 
TOmn bit.
The TOmn pin outputs the TOmn bit set level.
