7.6 Pulse width modulation (PWM) mode
7.6.1 Setting for PWM mode
Figures 7.6.3 and 7.6.4 show an initial setting example for registers relevant to the PWM mode.
Note that when using interrupts, set up to enable the interrupts. For details, refer to “CHAPTER 6.
INTERRUPTS.”

However, if n = “0016”, the pulse width modulator
does not operate and the TAi OUT pin outputs “L”
level. At this time, no timer Ai interrupt request
occurs.
