Bits 31:6 – PER[25:0] Period Value

These bits hold the value of the period register.

Note: When the TCC is configured as 16- or 24-bit timer/counter, the excess bits are read zero.

Note: This bit field occupies the MSB of the register. m is dependent on the Resolution bit in the Control A register (CTRLA.RESOLUTION):


CTRLA.RESOLUTION	Bits [31:m]
0x0 - NONE	31:0
0x1 - DITH4	31:4
0x2 - DITH5	31:5
0x3 - DITH6	31:6 (depicted)

Bits 5:0 – DITHER[5:0] Dithering Cycle Number

These bits hold the number of extra cycles that are added on the PWM pulse period every 64 PWM frames.

Note: This bit field consists of the n LSB of the register. n is dependent on the value of the Resolution bits in the Control A register (CTRLA.RESOLUTION):


CTRLA.RESOLUTION	Bits [n:0]
0x0 - NONE	-
0x1 - DITH4	3:0
0x2 - DITH5	4:0
0x3 - DITH6	5:0 (depicted)
