21.11.9 ICR1L – Input Capture Register 1 Low byte

When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses 0x00 - 0x3F must be used. When addressing I/O Registers as data space using LD and ST instructions, 0x20 must be added to these offset addresses.

Name: ICR1L
Offset: 0x26
Reset: 0x00
Property: When addressing I/O Registers as data space the offset address is 0x46

Bit 76543210 
 ICR1L[7:0] 
Access R/WR/WR/WR/WR/WR/WR/WR/W 
Reset 00000000 

Bits 7:0 – ICR1L[7:0] Input Capture 1 Low byte

The Input Capture is updated with the counter (TCNT1) value each time an event occurs on the ICP1 pin (or optionally on the Analog Comparator output for Timer/Counter1). The Input Capture can be used for defining the counter TOP value.

The Input Capture Register is 16-bit in size. To ensure that both the high and low bytes are read simultaneously when the CPU accesses these registers, the access is performed using an 8-bit temporary High Byte Register (TEMP). This temporary register is shared by all the other 16-bit registers. Refer to Accessing 16.bit Registers for details.
