17.2.3 Timer Mode Registers (TMR1ÐTMR4)

The four timer mode registers (TMR1ÐTMR4) are shown in Figure 17-5.

Erratic behavior may occur if TGCR1 and TGCR2 are not initialized before the TMRs.
Only TGCR[RST] can be modiÞed at any time.

Table 17-3 describes TMR1ÐTMR4 register Þelds.

GM2

Gate mode for TGATE2. This bit is valid only if the gate function is enabled in TMR3 or TMR4.
0 Restart gate mode. TGATE2 is used to enable/disable the count. The falling edge of TGATE2

enables and restarts the count and the rising edge of TGATE2 disables the count.

1 Normal gate mode. This mode is the same as 0, except the falling edge of TGATE2 does not

restart the count value in TCN.

5

Ñ

Reserved, should be cleared.

6

STP3

Stop timer.
0 Normal operation.
1 Reduce power consumption of the timer. This bit stops all clocks to the timer, however it is

possible to read the values while the clock is stopped. The clocks to the timer remain stopped
until the user clears this bit or a hardware reset occurs.

7

RST3

Reset timer.
0 Reset the corresponding timer (a software reset is identical to an external reset).
1 Enable the corresponding timer if STP = 0.

0Ð7

PS

Prescaler value. The prescaler is programmed to divide the clock input by values from 1 to 256. The
value 00000000 divides the clock by 1 and 11111111 divides the clock by 256.

8Ð9

CE

Capture edge and enable interrupt.
00 Disable interrupt on capture event; capture function is disabled.
01 Capture on rising TINx edge only and enable interrupt on capture event.
10 Capture on falling TINx edge only and enable interrupt on capture event.
11 Capture on any TINx edge and enable interrupt on capture event.
