CHAPTER 8 8/16-BIT CAPTURE TIMER/COUNTER
8.4.4 Timer Output Control Register (TCR2)
The timer output control register (TCR2) is used to allow and prohibit the square wave
output of the 8/16-bit capture timer/counter and select timer 0 output and timer 1 output.

Timer output selection bit
Timer 0 output in the 8-bit mode or output in the 16-bit mode
is selected.
Timer 1 output in the 8-bit mode is selected.
Port output enable bit
The P34/TO/INT10 pin acts as the general-purpose port (P34).
The P34/TO/INT10 pin acts as the square wave output pin
of the 8/16-bit capture timer/counter.

• At read, the values of these bits are undefined.
• At write, these bits do not affect operation.
bit1
PEN:
Port output enable bit
• When this bit is "0", the P34/TO/INT10 pin acts as the general-
purpose port (P34). When "1", it acts as the square wave output pin
(TO).
bit0
TSEL:
Timer output selection bit
• When this bit is "0", timer 0 output in the 8-bit mode or output in the
16-bit mode is selected. In this case, data is output from the TO pin.
When "1", timer 1 output in the 8-bit mode is selected. In this case,
data is also output from the TO pin.
