Table 90 shows the COM2B1:0 bit functionality when the WGM22:0 bits are set to
phase correct PWM mode.

Set OC2B on Compare Match when up-counting. Clear OC2B on
Compare Match when down-counting.
Note:
1. A special case occurs when OCR2B equals TOP and COM2B1 is set. In this case,
the Compare Match is ignored, but the set or clear is done at TOP. See “Phase Cor-
rect PWM Mode” on page 181 for more details.
• Bits 3, 2 – Res: Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved bits and will always read as zero.
• Bits 1:0 – WGM21:0: Waveform Generation Mode
Combined with the WGM22 bit found in the TCCR2B Register, these bits control the
counting sequence of the counter, the source for maximum (TOP) counter value, and
what type of waveform generation to be used, see Table 91. Modes of operation sup-
ported by the Timer/Counter unit are: Normal mode (counter), Clear Timer on Compare
Match (CTC) mode, and two types of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) modes (see
“Modes of Operation” on page 178).
