64-Bit Timer Plus
30.1.5.4.2.2 Unchained Mode
The general-purpose timers can be configured as a dual 32-bit unchained timers by setting the TIMMODE
bit to 1 in TGCR.
In the unchained mode (
), the timer operates as two independent 32-bit timers. One 32-bit
timer (timer 3:4) operates as a 32-bit timer being clocked by a 4-bit prescaler. The other 32-bit timer (timer
1:2) operates as a 32-bit timer with no prescaler.
Independent of the normal timer behavior, eight compare registers (CMP
n
) are compared against the
value of the TIM12 register when the PLUSEN bit in TGCR is set. Upon a successful non-zero match, an
interrupt and a DMA event are generated without affecting the TIM12 value, behavior, or associated
counter registers. Note that some timer instantiations may not map the CMP interrupt and DMA events to
the CPU and DMA engines (see your device-specific data manual for information).
