10.1 Outline of Multijunction Timers
The multijunction timers (abbreviated MJT) have input event and output event buses. Therefore, in
addition to being used as a single unit, the timers can be internally connected to each other. This
capability allows for highly flexible timer configuration, making it possible to meet various
application needs. It is because the timers are connected to the internal event bus at multiple points
that they are called the "multijunction" timers.
The 32170 has seven types of multijunction timers as listed in the table below, providing a total of
64 channels of timers.
