data in a compare register. The update data can be written to the buffer register at any time. There

are five PWM duty cycle and carrier cycle registers that have buffer registers and can be updated

during operation.

There is a temporary register between each of these registers and its buffer register. When

subcounter TCNTS is not counting, if buffer register data is updated, the temporary register value

is also rewritten. Transfer is not performed from buffer registers to temporary registers when

TCNTS is counting; in this case, the value written to a buffer register is transferred after TCNTS

halts.

The temporary register value is transferred to the compare register at the data update timing set

with bits MD3 to MD0 in the timer mode register (TMDR). Figure 8.37 shows an example of data

updating in complementary PWM mode. This example shows the mode in which data updating is

performed at both the counter peak and trough.

When rewriting buffer register data, a write to TGRD_4 must be performed at the end of the

update. Data transfer from the buffer registers to the temporary registers is performed

simultaneously for all five registers after the write to TGRD_4.

A write to TGRD_4 must be performed after writing data to the registers to be updated, even when

not updating all five registers, or when updating the TGRD_4 data. In this case, the data written to

TGRD_4 should be the same as the data prior to the write operation.
