The output compare registers are 16-bit read/write registers.
The Timer/Counter1 Output Compare Registers contain the data to be continuously compared with Timer/Counter1.
Actions on compare matches are specified in the Timer/Counter1 Control and Status register. A compare match does only
occur if Timer/Counter1 counts to the OCR value. A software write that sets TCNT1 and OCR1A or OCR1B to the same
value does not generate a compare match.
A compare match will set the compare interrupt flag in the CPU clock cycle following the compare event.
Since the Output Compare Registers – OCR1A and OCR1B – are 16-bit registers, a temporary register TEMP is used
when OCR1A/B are written to ensure that both bytes are updated simultaneously. When the CPU writes the high byte,
OCR1AH or OCR1BH, the data is temporarily stored in the TEMP register. When the CPU writes the low byte, OCR1AL or
OCR1BL, the TEMP register is simultaneously written to OCR1AH or OCR1BH. Consequently, the high byte OCR1AH or
OCR1BH must be written first for a full 16-bit register write operation.
The TEMP register is also used when accessing TCNT1, and ICR1. If the main program and also interrupt routines perform
access to registers using TEMP, interrupts must be disabled during access from the main program and interrupt routines.

The input capture register is a 16-bit read-only register.
When the rising or falling edge (according to the input capture edge setting – ICES1) of the signal at the input capture pin –
ICP – is detected, the current value of the Timer/Counter1 Register – TCNT1 is transferred to the Input Capture Register –
ICR1. In the same cycle, the input capture flag – ICF1 – is set (one).
Since the Input Capture Register – ICR1 – is a 16-bit register, a temporary register TEMP is used when ICR1 is read to
ensure that both bytes are read simultaneously. When the CPU reads the low byte ICR1L, the data is sent to the CPU and
the data of the high byte ICR1H is placed in the TEMP register. When the CPU reads the data in the high byte ICR1H, the
CPU receives the data in the TEMP register. Consequently, the low byte ICR1L must be accessed first for a full 16-bit reg-
ister read operation.
