Section 10 Programmable Timing Pattern Controller (TPC)
10.1
Overview
The H8/3062 Series has a built-in programmable timing pattern controller (TPC) that provides
pulse outputs by using the 16-bit timer as a time base. The TPC pulse outputs are divided into 4-
bit groups (group 3 to group 0) that can operate simultaneously and independently.
10.1.1
Features
TPC features are listed below.
• 16-bit output data
Maximum 16-bit data can be output. TPC output can be enabled on a bit-by-bit basis.
• Four output groups
Output trigger signals can be selected in 4-bit groups to provide up to four different 4-bit
outputs.
• Selectable output trigger signals
• Output trigger signals can be selected for each group from the compare match signals of three
16-bit timer channels.
• Non-overlap mode
A non-overlap margin can be provided between pulse outputs.
