2.3.2 Operation of Timer B (timer mode)
In timer mode, choose functions from those listed in Table 2.3.1. Operations of the circled items are
described below. Figure 2.3.4 shows the operation timing, and Figure 2.3.5 shows the set-up procedure.

Count source
O Internal count source (f1 / f8 / f32 / fc32)
Operation (1) Setting the count start flag to “1” causes the counter to perform a down count on the count
source.
(2) If an underflow occurs, the content of the reload register is reloaded, and the counter contin-
ues counting. At this time, the timer Bi interrupt request bit goes to “1”.
(3) Setting the count start flag to “0” causes the counter to hold its value and to stop.
n = reload register content
