Timer Interface A (TIMA) Module
The value in the TIMA counter modulo registers and the selected prescaler output determines the
frequency of the PWM output. The frequency of an 8-bit PWM signal is variable in 256 increments. Writing
$00FF (255) to the TIMA counter modulo registers produces a PWM period of 256 times the internal bus
clock period if the prescaler select value is $000 (see
The value in the TIMA channel registers determines the pulse width of the PWM output. The pulse width
of an 8-bit PWM signal is variable in 256 increments. Writing $0080 (128) to the TIMA channel registers
produces a duty cycle of 128/256 or 50%.

Any output compare channel can generate unbuffered PWM pulses as described in
Modulation
pulse width value over the value currently in the TIMA channel registers.
An unsynchronized write to the TIMA channel registers to change a pulse width value could cause
incorrect operation for up to two PWM periods. For example, writing a new value before the counter
reaches the old value but after the counter reaches the new value prevents any compare during that PWM
period. Also, using a TIMA overflow interrupt routine to write a new, smaller pulse width value may cause
the compare to be missed. The TIMA may pass the new value before it is written to the TIMA channel
registers.
Use these methods to synchronize unbuffered changes in the PWM pulse width on channel x:
17.3.4.2 Buffered PWM Signal Generation
Channels 0 and 1 can be linked to form a buffered PWM channel whose output appears on the
PTD0/TACH0 pin. The TIMA channel registers of the linked pair alternately control the pulse width of the
output.
Setting the MS0B bit in TIMA channel 0 status and control register (TASC0) links channel 0 and
channel 1. The TIMA channel 0 registers initially control the pulse width on the PTD0/TACH0 pin. Writing
to the TIMA channel 1 registers enables the TIMA channel 1 registers to synchronously control the pulse
width at the beginning of the next PWM period. At each subsequent overflow, the TIMA channel registers
(0 or 1) that control the pulse width are the ones written to last. TASC0 controls and monitors the buffered

When changing to a shorter pulse width, enable channel x output compare interrupts and write the
new value in the output compare interrupt routine. The output compare interrupt occurs at the end
of the current pulse. The interrupt routine has until the end of the PWM period to write the new
value.
When changing to a longer pulse width, enable TIMA overflow interrupts and write the new value
in the TIMA overflow interrupt routine. The TIMA overflow interrupt occurs at the end of the current
PWM period. Writing a larger value in an output compare interrupt routine (at the end of the current
pulse) could cause two output compares to occur in the same PWM period.
(PWM). The pulses are unbuffered because changing the pulse width requires writing the new
In PWM signal generation, do not program the PWM channel to toggle on
output compare. Toggling on output compare prevents reliable 0% duty
cycle generation and removes the ability of the channel to self-correct in the
event of software error or noise. Toggling on output compare also can
cause incorrect PWM signal generation when changing the PWM pulse
width to a new, much larger value.
