3.10.7.4.1.3 T3MRB – Timer3 Mode Register B

Name: T3MRB
Offset: 0x07E
Reset: 0x00

This register must be modified only while the timer is disabled (T3CR.T3ENA = 0). Modifying the bits during operation leads to unpredictable operation.

Bit 76543210 
 T3ICS[2:0]T3CE[1:0]T3CNCT3SCE 
Access R/WR/WR/WR/WR/WR/WR/WR 
Reset 00000000 

Bits 7:5 – T3ICS[2:0] Timer3 Input Capture Select

The T3ICS[2:0] bits select the input capture signal of Timer3 as shown in the following table.

Bits 4:3 – T3CE[1:0] Timer3 Capture Edge Select

The T3CE1 and T3CE0 bits select the edge from all input signals of Timer3 as shown in the following table.

00Disable edge detect
01Rising edge
10Falling edge
11Both edges

Bit 2 – T3CNC Timer3 Input Capture Noise Canceller

Setting this bit to ‘1’ activates the input capture noise canceller. When the noise canceller is activated, the input from the input capture pin is filtered. To change its output, the filter function requires four successive samples of the input capture pin of equal value. The input capture is, therefore, delayed by four counter clock (CL3) cycles when the noise canceller is enabled.

Bit 1 – T3SCE Timer3 Software Capture Enable

The T3SCE bit must be written to logic ‘1’ to enable a software capture event. The T3SCE bit is cleared after the counter value is saved in the capture register. The Timer3 counter value is readable via its capture register while it is running.

Bit 0 –  Reserved Bit

This bit is reserved and read as ‘0’.
