The Input Capture is updated with the counter (TCNT1) value each time an event occurs
on the ICP1 pin (or optionally on the analog comparator output for Timer/Counter1). The
Input Capture can be used for defining the counter TOP value.
The Input Capture Register is 16-bit in size. To ensure that both the high and low bytes
are read simultaneously when the CPU accesses these registers, the access is per-
formed using an 8-bit temporary High Byte Register (TEMP). This temporary register is
shared by all the other 16-bit registers. See “Accessing 16-bit Registers” on page 89.

Note:
1. This register contains interrupt control bits for several Timer/Counters, but only
Timer1 bits are described in this section. The remaining bits are described in their
respective timer sections.
• Bit 5 – TICIE1: Timer/Counter1, Input Capture Interrupt Enable
When this bit is written to one, and the I-flag in the Status Register is set (interrupts glo-
bally enabled), the Timer/Counter1 Input Capture Interrupt is enabled. The
corresponding Interrupt Vector (See “Interrupts” on page 44.) is executed when the
ICF1 Flag, located in TIFR, is set.
• Bit 4 – OCIE1A: Timer/Counter1, Output Compare A Match Interrupt Enable
When this bit is written to one, and the I-flag in the Status Register is set (interrupts glo-
bally enabled), the Timer/Counter1 Output Compare A match interrupt is enabled. The
corresponding Interrupt Vector (See “Interrupts” on page 44.) is executed when the
OCF1A Flag, located in TIFR, is set.
• Bit 3 – OCIE1B: Timer/Counter1, Output Compare B Match Interrupt Enable
When this bit is written to one, and the I-flag in the Status Register is set (interrupts glo-
bally enabled), the Timer/Counter1 Output Compare B match interrupt is enabled. The
corresponding Interrupt Vector (See “Interrupts” on page 44.) is executed when the
OCF1B Flag, located in TIFR, is set.
• Bit 2 – TOIE1: Timer/Counter1, Overflow Interrupt Enable
When this bit is written to one, and the I-flag in the Status Register is set (interrupts glo-
bally enabled), the Timer/Counter1 Overflow Interrupt is enabled. The corresponding
Interrupt Vector (See “Interrupts” on page 44.) is executed when the TOV1 Flag, located
in TIFR, is set.
