10.1 Outline of Multijunction Timers
The multijunction timers (abbreviated MJT) have input event and output event buses. Therefore, in addition to
being used as a single unit, the timers can be internally connected to each other. This capability allows for highly
flexible timer configuration, making it possible to meet various application needs. It is because the timers are
connected to the internal event buses at multiple points that they are called the “multijunction” timers.
The 32180 has six types of MJT as listed in the table below, providing a total of 64-channel timers.
