Overview
Timer/Counter0 is a general purpose 8-bit Timer/Counter module, with two independent Output Compare Units, 
and with PWM support. It allows accurate program execution timing (event management) and wave generation. 
A simplified block diagram of the 8-bit Timer/Counter is shown in 
. For the actual placement of I/O 
pins, refer to 
. CPU accessible I/O Registers, 
including I/O bits and I/O pins, are shown in bold. The device-specific I/O Register and bit locations are listed in
