CHAPTER 7 TIMER/COUNTER FUNCTION
163
(2) Measurement of two pulse widths with free running counter
The pulse widths of the two signals respectively input to the TIn0 and TIn1 pins can be measured when the 16-
bit timer register n (TMn) is used as a free running counter (refer to Figure 7-14).
When the edge specified by bits 4 and 5 (ESn00 and ESn01) of the prescaler mode register n (PRMn) is input to
the TIn0 pin, the value of the TMn is loaded to the 16-bit capture/compare register n1 (CRn1) and an external
interrupt request signal (INTTMn1) is set.
When the edge specified by bits 6 and 7 (ESn10 and ESn11) is input to the TIn1 pin, the value of TMn is loaded
to the 16-bit capture/compare register n0 (CRn0), and an external interrupt request signal (INTTMn0) is set.
The edges of the TIn0 and TIn1 pins are specified by bits 4 and 5 (ESn00 and ESn01) and bits 6 and 7 (ESn10
and ESn11) of PRMn, respectively. The rising, falling, or both rising and falling edges can be specified.
The valid edge is detected through sampling at a count clock cycle selected by the prescaler mode register n
(PRMn), and the capture operation is not performed until the valid level is detected two times. Therefore, noise
with a short pulse width can be rejected.

0/1: When these bits are reset to 0 or set to 1, the other functions can be used along with the pulse
width measurement function. For details, refer to Figures 7-2 and 7-3.
