Whenmultiple pulse mode is selected (MODE bits of the ATxCON0 register = 01), the angular timer starts a period counter after the first pulse just like the single pulse mode. However, each pulse that follows will store the time between pulses as theCurrent Period Counter value. The multi-pulse input will essentially treat the Angular Timer input as a series of single-pulse inputs.

A missing pulse can be used to determine the start of a new rotation or new series of input pulses. A number of output pulses can be produced in between input pulses by the Angular Timer module as see below. In this example, seven pulses are produced after every input pulse.
