Bits 24, 25, 26, 27 – CPTENx Capture Channel x Enable
These bits are used to select the capture or compare operation on channel x.
Writing a '1' to CPTENx enables capture on channel x.
Writing a '0' to CPTENx disables capture on channel x.
Bit 23 – DMAOS DMA One-Shot Trigger Mode
This bit enables the DMA One-shot Trigger Mode.
Writing a '1' to this bit will generate a DMA trigger on TCC cycle following a TCC_CTRLBSET_CMD_DMAOS command.
Writing a '0' to this bit will generate DMA triggers on each TCC cycle.
Bit 15 – MSYNC Host Synchronization (only for TCC Client instance)
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The TCC controls its own counter. |
1 | The counter is controlled by its Host TCC. |
Bit 14 – ALOCK Auto Lock
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The Lock Update bit in the Control B register (CTRLB.LUPD) is not affected by overflow/underflow, and re-trigger events |
1 | CTRLB.LUPD is set to '1' on each overflow/underflow or re-trigger event. |
Bits 13:12 – PRESCYNC[1:0] Prescaler and Counter Synchronization
These bits select if on re-trigger event, the Counter is cleared or reloaded on either the next GCLK_TCCx clock, or on the next prescaled GCLK_TCCx clock. It is also possible to reset the prescaler on re-trigger event.
Value | Name | Description | |
---|---|---|---|
Counter Reloaded | Prescaler | ||
0x0 | GCLK | Reload or reset Counter on next GCLK | - |
0x1 | PRESC | Reload or reset Counter on next prescaler clock | - |
0x2 | RESYNC | Reload or reset Counter on next GCLK | Reset prescaler counter |
0x3 | Reserved |
Bit 11 – RUNSTDBY Run in Standby
This bit is used to keep the TCC running in Standby mode.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The TCC is halted in standby. |
1 | The TCC continues to run in standby. |
Bits 10:8 – PRESCALER[2:0] Prescaler
These bits select the Counter prescaler factor.
Value | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
0x0 | DIV1 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx |
0x1 | DIV2 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/2 |
0x2 | DIV4 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/4 |
0x3 | DIV8 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/8 |
0x4 | DIV16 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/16 |
0x5 | DIV64 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/64 |
0x6 | DIV256 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/256 |
0x7 | DIV1024 | Prescaler: GCLK_TCCx/1024 |
Bits 6:5 – RESOLUTION[1:0] Dithering Resolution
These bits increase the TCC resolution by enabling the dithering options.
Value | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
0x0 | NONE | The dithering is disabled. |
0x1 | DITH4 | Dithering is done every 16 PWM frames.
PER[3:0] and CCx[3:0] contain dithering pattern selection. |
0x2 | DITH5 | Dithering is done every 32 PWM frames.
PER[4:0] and CCx[4:0] contain dithering pattern selection. |
0x3 | DITH6 | Dithering is done every 64 PWM frames.
PER[5:0] and CCx[5:0] contain dithering pattern selection. |
Bit 1 – ENABLE Enable
- This bit is not enable-protected.
- This bit is write synchronized: SYNCBUSY.ENABLE must be checked to ensure the CTRLA.ENABLE synchronization is complete.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | The peripheral is disabled. |
1 | The peripheral is enabled. |
Bit 0 – SWRST Software Reset
Writing a '0' to this bit has no effect.
Writing a '1' to this bit resets all registers in the TCC (except DBGCTRL) to their initial state, and the TCC will be disabled.
Writing a '1' to CTRLA.SWRST will always take precedence; all other writes in the same write-operation will be discarded.
- This bit is not enable-protected.
- This bit is write synchronized: SYNCBUSY.ENABLE must be checked to ensure the CTRLA.ENABLE synchronization is complete.
Value | Description |
---|---|
0 | There is no Reset operation ongoing. |
1 | The Reset operation is ongoing. |
