NOTES:
1. The TCK1 bit is valid for timer A3 mode register. No matter how this bit is set, timers A2 and A4 always operate
in normal processing mode and x4 processing mode, respectively.
2. If two-phase pulse signal processing is desired, following register settings are required:
• Set the TAiP bit in the UDF register to 1 (two-phase pulse signal processing function enabled).
• Set bits TAiTGH and TAiTGL in the TRGSR register to 00
2
(TAiIN pin input).
• Set the port direction bits for TAi
IN
and TAi
OUT
to 0 (input mode).
