(2) Event counter mode
In this mode, the timer counts an external signal or an internal timer’s overflow. Timers A0 and A1 can
count a single-phase external signal. Timers A2, A3, and A4 can count a single-phase and a two-
phase external signal. Table 2.10.2 lists timer specifications when counting a single-phase external
signal. Figure 2.10.8 shows the timer Ai mode register in event counter mode.
Table 2.10.3 lists timer specifications when counting a two-phase external signal. Figure 2.10.9
shows the timer Ai mode register in event counter mode.

Item
Specification
Count source
• External signals input to TAiIN pin (effective edge can be selected by software)
• TB2 overflow, TAj overflow
Count operation
• Up count or down count can be selected by external signal or software
• When the timer overflows or underflows, it reloads the reload register con
tents before continuing counting (Note)
Divide ratio
Count start condition
1/ (FFFF16 - n + 1) for up count
1/ (n + 1) for down count
Count start flag is set (= 1)
n : Set value
Count stop condition
Count start flag is reset (= 0)
Interrupt request generation timing The timer overflows or underflows
TAiIN pin function
TAiOUT pin function
Read from timer
Write to timer
Programmable I/O port or count source input
Programmable I/O port, pulse output, or up/down count select input
Count value can be read out by reading timer Ai register
• When counting stopped
When a value is written to timer Ai register, it is written to both reload register and counter
• When counting in progress
When a value is written to timer Ai register, it is written to only reload register
(Transferred to counter at next reload time)
Select function
• Free-run count function
Even when the timer overflows or underflows, the reload register content is not reloaded to it
• Pulse output function
Each time the timer overflows or underflows, the TAiOUT pin’s polarity is reversed
Note: This does not apply when the free-run function is selected.

Invalid in event counter mode
Can be “0” or “1”
Note 1: In event counter mode, the count source is selected by the event / trigger select bit
(addresses 038216 and 038316).
Note 2: The settings of the corresponding port register and port direction register are invalid.
Note 3: Valid only when counting an external signal.
Note 4: When an “L” signal is input to the TAiOUT pin, the downcount is activated. When “H”,
the upcount is activated. Set the corresponding port direction register to “0”.
Note 5: In the case of using “Event counter mode” as “Free-Run type”, the timer register
contents may be unkown when counting begins.(Refer 3. Usage Precaution.)
