Figure 12.6 shows another example of toggle output when TCNT operates as a periodic counter,
cleared by compare match A. Toggle output is selected for both compare match A and B.

The TCNT value can be captured into a general register (GRA, GRB, GRC, or GRD) when a
signal level changes at an input-capture pin (FTIOA, FTIOB, FTIOC, or FTIOD). Capture can
take place on the rising edge, falling edge, or both edges. By using the input-capture function, the
pulse width and periods can be measured. Figure 12.7 shows an example of input capture when
both edges of FTIOA and the falling edge of FTIOB are selected as capture edges. TCNT operates
as a free-running counter.
