up-counting and down-counting values are reached simultaneously. When the prescaler
is in use (CS12..CS10
≠ 001 or 000), the PWM output goes active when the counter
reaches TOP value, but the down-counting compare match is not interpreted to be
reached before the next time the counter reaches the TOP value, making a one-period
PWM pulse.
Note: X = A or B
Note that in the PWM mode, the 10 least significant OCR1A/OCR1B bits, when written,
are transferred to a temporary location. They are latched when Timer/Counter1 reaches
the value TOP. This prevents the occurrence of odd-length PWM pulses (glitches) in the
event of an unsynchronized OCR1A/OCR1B write. See Figure 33 for an example.
Figure 33. Effects of Unsynchronized OCR1 Latching
During the time between the write and the latch operations, a read from OCR1A or
OCR1B will read the contents of the temporary location. This means that the most
recently written value always will read out of OCR1A/B.
When the OCR1A/OCR1B contains $0000 or TOP, the output OC1A/OC1B is updated
