The following code examples show how to do an atomic write of the TCNT1 register contents.
Writing any of the OCR1A/B/C/D registers can be done by using the same principle.
Note:
1. The example code assumes that the part specific header file is included.
For I/O registers located in extended I/O map, “IN”, “OUT”, “SBIS”, “SBIC”, “CBI”, and “SBI”
instructions must be replaced with instructions that allow access to extended I/O. Typically
“LDS” and “STS” combined with “SBRS”, “SBRC”, “SBR”, and “CBR”.
The assembly code example requires that the r17:r16 register pair contains the value to be writ-
ten to TCNT1.
16.10.1
Reusing the temporary high byte register
If writing to more than one 10-bit register where the high byte is the same for all registers written,
then the high byte only needs to be written once. However, note that the same rule of atomic
operation described previously also applies in this case.
Assembly Code Example
TIM1_WriteTCNT
1:
; Save global interrupt flag
in
r18,SREG
; Disable interrupts
cli
; Set TCNT
1 to r17:r16
out
TC
1H,r17
out
TCNT
1,r16
; Restore global interrupt flag
out
SREG,r18
ret
C Code Example
void
TIM1_WriteTCNT1( unsigned int i )
{
unsigned char sreg;
unsigned int i;
/* Save global interrupt flag */
sreg = SREG;
/* Disable interrupts */
_CLI();
/* Set TCNT1 to i */
TC1H = (i >> 8);
TCNT1 = (unsigned char)i;
/* Restore global interrupt flag */
SREG = sreg;
}
