49.8.18 Compare/Capture Channel x

The CCx register represents the 16-, 24- bit value, CCx. The register has two functions, depending of the mode of operation.

For capture operation, this register represents the second buffer level and access point for the CPU and DMA.

For compare operation, this register is continuously compared to the counter value. Normally, the output form the comparator is then used for generating waveforms.

CCx register is updated with the buffer value from their corresponding CCBUFx register when an UPDATE condition occurs.

In addition, in match frequency operation, the CC0 register controls the counter period.

Bits 23:6 – CC[17:0] Channel x Compare/Capture Value

These bits hold the value of the Channel x compare/capture register.

Note:
  1. When the TCC is configured as a 16-bit timer/counter, the excess bits are read as zero.
  2. This bit field occupies the MSB of the register, [23:m]. m is dependent on the Resolution bit in the Control A register (CTRLA.RESOLUTION):
    CTRLA.RESOLUTIONBits [23:m]
    0x0 - NONE23:0
    0x1 - DITH423:4
    0x2 - DITH523:5
    0x3 - DITH623:6 (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 width 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.RESOLUTIONBits [n:0]
0x0 - NONE-
0x1 - DITH43:0
0x2 - DITH54:0
0x3 - DITH65:0 (depicted)
