14 16-bit PWM Timers (T16B)

14.1 Overview

T16B is a 16-bit PWM timer with comparator/capture functions. The features of T16B are listed below.
• Counter block
- 16-bit up/down counter
- A clock source and a clock division ratio for generating the count clock are selectable in each channel.
- The count mode is configurable from combinations of up, down, or up/down count operations, and one-shot
operations (counting for one cycle configured) or repeat operations (counting continuously until stopped via
software).
- Supports an event counter function using an external clock.
• Comparator/capture block
- Supports up to six comparator/capture circuits to be included per one channel.
- The comparator compares the counter value with the values specified via software to generate interrupt sig-
nals and a PWM waveform. (Can be used as an interval timer, PWM waveform generator, and external event
counter.)
- The capture circuit captures counter values using external/software trigger signals and generates interrupts.
(Can be used to measure external event periods/cycles.)
Figure 14.1.1 shows the T16B configuration.
