Timer 3 Compare- and
Compare-mode Register

Timer 3 has two separate compare registers T3CO1 and T3CO2 for the 8-bit stage of
Timer 3. The timer compares the content of the compare register with the current
counter value. If both match, it generates a signal. This signal can be used for the
counter reset, to generate a timer interrupt, for toggling the output flip-flop, as SSI clock
or as clock for the next counter stage. For each compare register, a compare-mode reg-
ister exists. These registers contain mask bits to enable or disable the generation of an
interrupt, a counter reset, or an output toggling with the occurrence of a compare match
of the corresponding compare register. The mask bits for activating the single-action
mode can also be located in the compare mode registers. When assigned to the com-
pare register a compare event will be suppressed.
