Section 15 Timer (TMU)
15.5 Usage Notes
15.5.1 Writing to Registers
Synchronous processing is not performed for timer count operation during register writes. When
writing to registers, always clear the start bits (STR2 to STR0) for the desired channel in the timer
start register (TSTR) to halt timer counting.
15.5.2 Reading Registers
Synchronous processing is performed for timer count operation during register reads. When timer
counting and register read processing are performed simultaneously, the register value prior to the
TCNT decrementation is read with the synchronous processing.
