When changing TBxCL0 while the timer is running and counting in the down direction, and when the TBxCL0 load mode is immediate, the timer continues its descent until it reaches zero. The new period takes effect after the counter counts down to zero.
If the timer is counting in the up direction when the new period is latched into TBxCL0, and the new period is greater than or equal to the old period or greater than the current count value, the timer counts up to the new period before counting down. When the timer is counting in the up direction, and the new period is less than the current count value when TBxCL0 is loaded, the timer begins counting down. However, one additional count may occur before the counter begins counting down.
