(3) Event counter mode
Timer A counts signals input from the P00/CNTR1 pin.
Except for this, the operation in event counter mode is the same
as in timer mode.
The active edge of CNTR1 pin input signal can be selected from
rising or falling by the CNTR1 active edge switch bit .
(4) Pulse width HL continuously measurement mode
In the pulse width HL continuously measurement mode, the pulse
width (“H” and “L” levels) input to the P00/CNTR1 pin is measured.
CNTR1 interrupt request is generated at both rising and falling
edges of CNTR1 pin input signal. Except for this, the operation in
pulse width HL continuously measurement mode is the same as in
period measurement mode.
The count value when trigger input from the CNTR1 pin is ac-
cepted is retained until Timer A is read once.
Timer A can stop counting by setting “1” to the timer A count stop
bit in any mode.
Also, when Timer A underflows, the timer A interrupt request bit is
set to “1”.
Note on Timer A is described below;
s Note on Timer A
CNTR1 interrupt active edge selection
CNTR1 interrupt active edge depends on the CNTR1 active edge
switch bit.
When this bit is “0”, the CNTR1 interrupt request bit is set to “1” at
the falling edge of the CNTR1 pin input signal. When this bit is “1”,
the CNTR1 interrupt request bit is set to “1” at the rising edge of
the CNTR1 pin input signal.
However, in the pulse width HL continuously measurement mode,
CNTR1 interrupt request is generated at both rising and falling
edges of CNTR1 pin input signal regardless of the setting of
CNTR1 active edge switch bit.
