16.11 Register Description

16.11.1

TCCR1A – Timer/Counter1 Control Register A

• Bit 7:6 – COMnA1:0: Compare Output Mode for Channel A

• Bit 5:4 – COMnB1:0: Compare Output Mode for Channel B

The COMnA1:0 and COMnB1:0 control the Output Compare pins (OCnA and OCnB respec-
tively) behavior. If one or both of the COMnA1:0 bits are written to one, the OCnA output
overrides the normal port functionality of the I/O pin it is connected to. If one or both of the
COMnB1:0 bit are written to one, the OCnB output overrides the normal port functionality of the
I/O pin it is connected to. However, note that the Data Direction Register (DDR) bit correspond-
ing to the OCnA or OCnB pin must be set in order to enable the output driver.

When the OCnA or OCnB is connected to the pin, the function of the COMnx1:0 bits is depen-
dent of the WGMn3:0 bits setting.

Table 16-1

shows the COMnx1:0 bit functionality when the

WGMn3:0 bits are set to a Normal or a CTC mode (non-PWM).
