9. Poll the GPTMRIS register or wait for the interrupt to be generated (if enabled). In both cases,
the status flags are cleared by writing a 1 the appropriate bit of the GPTM Interrupt Clear
Register (GPTMICR).
If the TnMIE bit in the GPTMTnMR register is set, the RTCRIS bit in the GPTMRIS register is set,
and the timer continues counting. In One-Shot mode, the timer stops counting after the time-out
event. To re-enable the timer, repeat the sequence. A timer configured in Periodic mode reloads
the timer and continues counting after the time-out event.
Input Edge-Count Mode
A timer is configured to Input Edge-Count mode by the following sequence:
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TnEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.
2. Write the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register with a value of 0x0000.0004.
3. In the GPTM Timer Mode (GPTMTnMR) register, write the TnCMR field to 0x0 and the TnMR
field to 0x3.
4. Configure the type of event(s) that the timer captures by writing the TnEVENT field of the GPTM
Control (GPTMCTL) register.
5. If a prescaler is to be used, write the prescale value to the GPTM Timer n Prescale Register
(GPTMTnPR).
6. Load the timer start value into the GPTM Timer n Interval Load (GPTMTnILR) register.
7. Load the event count into the GPTM Timer n Match (GPTMTnMATCHR) register.
8. If interrupts are required, set the CnMIM bit in the GPTM Interrupt Mask (GPTMIMR) register.
9. Set the TnEN bit in the GPTMCTL register to enable the timer and begin waiting for edge events.
10. Poll the CnMRIS bit in the GPTMRIS register or wait for the interrupt to be generated (if enabled).
In both cases, the status flags are cleared by writing a 1 to the CnMCINT bit of the GPTM
Interrupt Clear (GPTMICR) register.
In Input Edge-Count Mode, the timer stops after the programmed number of edge events has been
detected. To re-enable the timer, ensure that the TnEN bit is cleared and repeat step 4 on page 437
through step 9 on page 437.
16-Bit Input Edge Timing Mode
A timer is configured to Input Edge Timing mode by the following sequence:
1. Ensure the timer is disabled (the TnEN bit is cleared) before making any changes.
2. Write the GPTM Configuration (GPTMCFG) register with a value of 0x0000.0004.
3. In the GPTM Timer Mode (GPTMTnMR) register, write the TnCMR field to 0x1 and the TnMR
field to 0x3.
4. Configure the type of event that the timer captures by writing the TnEVENT field of the GPTM
Control (GPTMCTL) register.
