9.4 Operation
9.4.1 Operation as interval timer/square wave output
When the count value of 8-bit timer counter Hn and the set value of the CMPn0 register match, an interrupt request
signal (INTTMHn) is generated and 8-bit timer counter Hn is cleared to 00H.
The CMPn1 register cannot be used in the interval timer mode. Even if the CMPn1 register is set, this has no
effect on the timer output because matches between 8-bit timer counter Hn and the CMPn1 register are not detected.
A square wave of the desired frequency (duty = 50%) is output from the TOHn pin, by setting the TMHMDn.TOENn
bit to 1.
Remarks 1. For the alternate-function pin (TOHn) settings, refer to Table 4-12 Settings When Port Pins Are
Used for Alternate Functions.
2. For INTTMHn interrupt enable, refer to CHAPTER 17 INTERRUPT/EXCEPTION PROCESSING
FUNCTION.

The interval time is as follows if N is set as a comparison value.
• Interval time = (N + 1)/f
<2> When the TMHEn bit is set to 1, counting starts.
<3> When the count value of 8-bit timer counter Hn and the set value of the CMPn0 register match, the
INTTMHn signal is generated and 8-bit timer counter Hn is cleared to 00H.
<4> Then, the INTTMHn signal is generated in the same interval. To stop the count operation, clear the TMHEn
bit to 0.
