What will happen if data is written directly into the Timer?
Answer When data is written to the timer, what will happen is governed by the operating state of the timer. When the Timer is switched off, the data will be directly written into both the timer register and the preload register. If the timer is running, the data will only change the value in the preload register, the value in the timer register will remain unchanged. Not until an overflow occurs will the value in the preload register be loaded into the timer register.
