16-BIT TIMER (Cont’d)
10.3.3.3 Input Capture
In this section, the index, i, may be 1 or 2 because
there are 2 input capture functions in the 16-bit
timer.
The two 16-bit input capture registers (IC1R and
IC2R) are used to latch the value of the free run-
ning counter after a transition is detected on the
ICAPi pin (see figure 5).
ICiR register is a read-only register.
The active transition is software programmable
through the IEDGi bit of Control Registers (CRi).
Timing resolution is one count of the free running
counter: (
Procedure:
To use the input capture function select the follow-
ing in the CR2 register:
– Select the timer clock (CC[1:0]) (see

When an input capture occurs:
– ICFi bit is set.
– The ICiR register contains the value of the free
– A timer interrupt is generated if the ICIE bit is set
Clearing the Input Capture interrupt request (i.e.
clearing the ICFi bit) is done in two steps:
1. Reading the SR register while the ICFi bit is set.
2. An access (read or write) to the ICiLR register.

Moreover if one of the ICAPi pins is configured
as an input and the second one as an output,
