Timer Status Registers 1 and 2
Each timer status (TSTATx) register indicates the corresponding timer’s status. When a capture event
occurs, it is indicated by setting the CAPT bit. When a compare event occurs, the COMP bit is set. Both
bits are cleared by writing 0x0. To be cleared, these bits must first be examined, and the bit must have a
value of 0x1. This ensures that an interrupt will not be missed if it occurs between the status read and when
the interrupt is cleared. The settings for the registers are described in Table 12-7.
