20.1.1. Edge-triggered Capture Mode
In this mode, a valid transition on the CEXn pin causes the PCA to capture the value of the PCA counter/timer and
load it into the corresponding module’s 16-bit capture/compare register (PCA0CPLn and PCA0CPHn). The CAPPn
and CAPNn bits in the PCA0CPMn register are used to select the type of transition that triggers the capture: low-to-
high transition (positive edge), high-to-low transition (negative edge), or either transition (positive or negative
edge). When a capture occurs, the Capture/Compare Flag (CCFn) in PCA0CN is set to logic 1 and an interrupt
request is generated if CCF interrupts are enabled. The CCFn bit is not automatically cleared by hardware when the
CPU vectors to the interrupt service routine, and must be cleared by software.
