16.1 CCP Module Configuration
Each Capture/Compare/PWM module is associated
with a control register (generically, CCPxCON) and a
data register (CCPRx). The data register in turn is com-
prised of two 8-bit registers: CCPRxL (low byte) and
CCPRxH (high byte). All registers are both readable
and writable.

The assignment of a particular timer to a module is
determined by the Timer-to-CCP enable bits in the
T3CON register (Register 14-1, page 143). Depending
on the configuration selected, up to four timers may be
active at once, with modules in the same configuration
(Capture/Compare or PWM) sharing timer resources.
The possible configurations are shown in Figure 16-1.
16.1.1
CCP MODULES AND TIMER
RESOURCES
The CCP/ECCP modules utilize Timers 1, 2, 3 or 4,
depending on the mode selected. Timer1 and Timer3
are available to modules in Capture or Compare
modes, while Timer2 and Timer4 are available for
modules in PWM mode.
