Timer Interface Module (TIM1)
17.1 Introduction
This section describes the timer interface module (TIM1). TIM1 is a two-channel timer that provides a
timing reference with input capture, output compare, and pulse-width-modulation functions. Figure 17-2
is a block diagram of the TIM1.
17.2 Features
Features of the TIM1 include the following:
Two input capture/output compare channels
Rising-edge, falling-edge, or any-edge input capture trigger
Set, clear, or toggle output compare action
Buffered and unbuffered pulse width modulation (PWM) signal generation
Programmable TIM1 clock input with 7-frequency internal bus clock prescaler selection
Free-running or modulo up-count operation
Toggle any channel pin on overflow
TIM1 counter stop and reset bits
17.3 Functional Description
Figure 17-2 shows the structure of the TIM1. The central component of the TIM1 is the 16-bit TIM1
counter that can operate as a free-running counter or a modulo up-counter. The TIM1 counter provides
the timing reference for the input capture and output compare functions. The TIM1 counter modulo
registers, T1MODH:T1MODL, control the modulo value of the TIM1 counter. Software can read the TIM1
counter value at any time without affecting the counting sequence.
The two TIM1 channels are programmable independently as input capture or output compare channels.
