Register modified Register A
Description This instruction detects the edges of the external signal at loop start and
measures its period or pulse duration. The counter value stored in the control
field C[24:0] and in the register A is incremented each N2HET loop. PCNT
uses the HR structure on the pin to measure an HR period/pulse count value.
hr_lr (Optional) Specifies whether the PCNT instruction captures the HR
delay into the HR data field on the selected edge condition. If hr_lr is
0 (HIGH) then PCNT captures the HR delay. if hr_lr is 1 (LOW) then
PCNT only captures at loop resolution.
