31.1.2.1 Timer Counter

All TIMx instances have 16-bit counter blocks except for TIMG12 and TIMG13, which have 32-bit counter blocks. The timer counter register (TIMx.CTR) can count down, up-and-down, or up depending on the operation mode. It can also be read or written with software.

The counter can advance (increment or decrement) using the internal clock TIMCLK, with the rising and/or falling edge of an timer external input, or an internal trigger event from other peripherals (see advance condition). By default, each count occurs with each rising edge of the TIMCLK signal.

Enabling the TIMx Counter

The counter is clocked by the prescaler output TIMCLK. The counter enable bit TIMx.CTRCTL.EN can be enabled in two ways:

  • Set in software manually
  • After a load condition (LCOND) or zero condition (ZCOND) is met, and the counter value after enable bit (TIMx.CTRCTL.CVAE) is set to the load value or zero value, respectively.
Note: The ability to write the counter register while TIMx is running is possible but should be avoided because the user write can collide with a load, zero, or advance event. Depending on the prescaler ratio, the application cannot predict the timing of the write, which can affect the correct timer period.
