CHAPTER 8 INTERVAL TIMER
8.3.3 Interval timer control register (ITMC)
This register is used to set up the starting and stopping of the 12-bit interval timer operation and to specify the timer
compare value.
The ITMC register can be set by a 16-bit memory manipulation instruction.
Reset signal generation clears this register to 0FFFH.

Example interrupt cycles when 001H or FFFH is specified for ITCMP11 to ITCMP0
• ITCMP11 to ITCMP0 = 001H, count clock: when f
SUB
= 32.768 kHz
1/32.768 [kHz]
× (1 + 1) = 0.06103515625 [ms] ≅ 61.03 [
μs]
• ITCMP11 to ITCMP0 = FFFH, count clock: when f
SUB
= 32.768 kHz
1/32.768 [kHz]
× (4095 + 1) = 125 [ms]
Cautions 1. Before changing the RINTE bit from 1 to 0, use the interrupt mask flag register to disable the
INTIT interrupt servicing. When the operation starts (from 0 to 1) again, clear the ITIF flag,
and then enable the interrupt servicing.
2. The value read from the RINTE bit is applied one count clock cycle after setting the RINTE bit.
3. When setting the RINTE bit to start operation of the counter after returning from a standby
mode and then shifting to a standby mode again, either confirm that the value written to the
RINTE bit has been applied, or make sure that at least one count clock cycle elapses between
returning from a standby mode and shifting to a standby mode again.
4. Only change the setting of the ITCMP11 to ITCMP0 bits when RINTE = 0.
However, it is possible to change the settings of the ITCMP11 to ITCMP0 bits at the same time
as when changing RINTE from 0 to 1 or 1 to 0.
