46.6.1.1 QEI Control Register

Note:
  1. When CCMx = 01, CCMx = 10 or CCMx = 11, all of the QEI Counters operate as timers and the PIMOD[2:0] bits are ignored.
  2. When CCMx = 00, and QEA and QEB values match the Index Match Value (IMV), the POSxCNTH and POSxCNTL registers are reset.
  3. The selected clock rate should be at least twice the expected maximum quadrature count rate.
  4. The QCAPEN and HCAPEN bits must be cleared during PIMOD modes 2 though 7 to insure proper functionality.
