9. TIMERS
The use of the event counter mode (When you use two aspect pulse signal processing with Timer A2, A3, and
A4) is shown in Table 9.3.
Figure 9.9 shows from TA2MR register to TA4MR register (When you use two aspect pulse signal processing
with timer A2, A3, and A4) at event counter mode.

Specification
• Two-phase pulse signals input to TAiIN or TAiOUT pins (i = 2 to 4)
• Up-count or down-count can be selected by two-phase pulse signal
• When the timer overflows or underflows, it reloads the reload register con-
tents and continues counting. When operating in free-running mode, the
timer continues counting without reloading.
1/ (FFFF16 - n + 1) for up-count
1/ (n + 1) for down-count n : set value of TAi register 000016 to FFFF16
Set TAiS bit of TABSR register to “1” (= start counting)
Set TAiS bit to “0” (= stop counting)
Timer overflow or underflow
Two-phase pulse input
Two-phase pulse input
Count value can be read by reading timer A2, A3 or A4 register
• When not counting and until the 1st count source is input after counting start
Value written to TAi register is written to both reload register and counter
• When counting (after 1st count source input)
Value written to TAi register is written to reload register
(Transferred to counter when reloaded next)
• Normal processing operation (timer A2 and timer A3)
The timer counts up rising edges or counts down falling edges on TAjIN pin
when input signals on TAj OUT pin is “H”.

• Multiply-by-4 processing operation (timer A3 and timer A4)
If the phase relationship is such that TAkIN(k=3, 4) pin goes “H” when the
input signal on TAkOUT pin is “H”, the timer counts up rising and falling
edges on TAkOUT and TAkIN pins. If the phase relationship is such that
TAkIN pin goes “L” when the input signal on TAkOUT pin is “H”, the timer
counts down rising and falling edges on TAkOUT and TAkIN pins.
TAkOUT
Count up all edges
TAkIN
(k=3,4)
Count up all edges
Count down all edges
Count down all edges
Notes:
1. Only timer A3 is selectable. Timer A2 is fixed to normal processing operation, and timer A4 is fixed to
multiply-by-4 processing operation.
