Synchronous Output
6-7 8-bit Timer Synchronous Output
6-7-1 Operation
When the binary counter of the timer reaches the set value of the compare register, the latched data is
output from port 6 at the next count clock.
Synchronous Output Operation by 8-bit timer (Timer 1, Timer 5)
The port 6 latched data is output from the output pin at the interrupt request generation by the match of the
binary counter and the compare register.
Only port 6 can perform synchronous output operation, and individual pins can be set. 8-bit timers that have
synchronous output operation are timer 1 and timer 5.
Count Timing of Synchronous Output (Timer 1, Timer 5)
The port 6 latched data is output from the output pin in synchronization with the interrupt request
generation by the match of binary counter and compare register.
