Timer_B Operation
13-17Timer_B
Output Example − Timer in Up/Down Mode
The OUTx signal changes when the timer equals TBCLx in either count
direction and when the timer equals TBCL0, depending on the output mode.
An example is shown in Figure 1314 using TBCL0 and TBCL3.

Note: Switching Between Output Modes
When switching between output modes, one of the OUTMODx bits should
remain set during the transition, unless switching to mode 0. Otherwise,
output glitching can occur because a NOR gate decodes output mode 0. A
safe method for switching between output modes is to use output mode 7 as
a transition state:
BIS #OUTMOD_7,&TBCCTLx ; Set output mode=7
BIC #OUTMODx,&TBCCTLx ; Clear unwanted bits
