7.3.11 Sample Applications
(1) Interval timer operation (1)
By free running 8-bit timer 2 (TM2), and adding a value to a compare register (CR20, CR21) in an interrupt
handling routine, 8-bit timer/counter 2 can be used as an interval timer whose period is as long as the added
value. (See Fig. 7-96.)
handling routine, 8-bit timer/counter 2 can be used as an interval timer whose period is as long as the added
value. (See Fig. 7-96.)
In addition, 8-bit timer 2 (TM2) has two compare registers, so that interval timers with two types of periods
can be produced.
