30.6.2.6.1 Waveform Output Operations
- Choose a waveform generation mode in the Waveform Generation Operation bit in Waveform register (CTRLA.WAVEGEN).
- Optionally invert the waveform output by writing the corresponding Waveform Output Invert Enable bit in the Control C register (CTRLC.INVx).
- Configure the pins with the I/O Pin Controller. Refer to PORT - I/O Pin Controller for details.
The counter value is continuously compared with each CCx value. On a comparison match, the Match or Capture Channel x bit in the Interrupt Flag Status and Clear register (INTFLAG.MCx) will be set on the next zero-to-one transition of CLK_TC_CNT (see the next figure). An interrupt/and or event can be generated on comparison match when INTENSET.MCx=1 and/or EVCTRL.MCEOx=1.
- Normal frequency (NFRQ)
- Match frequency (MFRQ)
- Normal pulse-width modulation (NPWM)
- Match pulse-width modulation (MPWM)
When using NPWM or NFRQ configuration, the TOP will be determined by the counter resolution. In 8-bit counter mode, the Period register (PER) is used as TOP, and the TOP can be changed by writing to the PER register. In 16- and 32-bit counter mode, TOP is fixed to the maximum (MAX) value of the counter.
