Timer/Counter Timing
Diagrams
The following figures show the Timer/Counter in synchronous mode, and the timer clock
(clk
T2
) is therefore shown as a clock enable signal. In asynchronous mode, clk
I/O
should
be replaced by the Timer/Counter Oscillator clock. The figures include information on
when interrupt flags are set. Figure 59 contains timing data for basic Timer/Counter
operation. The figure shows the count sequence close to the MAX value in all modes
other than phase correct PWM mode.

Figure 60 shows the same timing data, but with the prescaler enabled.

Figure 61 shows the setting of OCF2A in all modes except CTC mode.
