8.3 Real-Time Output Port
The real-time output port outputs data stored in the buffer, synchronized with a timer/counter 1 match interrupt or
external interrupt. Thus, pulse output that is free of jitter can be obtained.
Therefore, the real-time output port is best suited to applications (such as open-loop control over stepping motors)
where an arbitrary pattern is output at arbitrary intervals.
As shown in Figure 8-5, the real-time output port is built around port 0 and the port 0 buffer register (P0H, P0L).
