Interrupt enable
Concatenate to up-stream timer/counter; that is, use up-stream
timer/counter’s overflow/underflow output as clock input
Reload enable
Basic PWM function
Enhanced PWM functionality (timers 6–9)
Quadrature decoder function (timer 5)
32-bit or 16-bit operation
16-bit mode
options
These options are available in 16-bit mode:
Capture mode. Capture the counter value on the rising or falling edge of an
external event and interrupt the CPU.
Compare mode. Interrupt the CPU when the counter value is equal to the
Match register.

Any of the timer/counters can be configured to provide a basic PWM function. Each
PWM function requires concatenating two timer/counters, resulting in four PWM
outputs. One of the timer/counters controls the pulse width and the other controls
the period. The basic PWM function is output through GPIO through functions
labeled PWM Ch N.
