TIMER REGISTERS
Table 79 lists the CPU-accessible registers used to control
the Multi-Function Timers.
26.5.1
Clock Prescaler Register (TPRSC)
The TPRSC register is a byte-wide, read/write register that
holds the current value of the 5-bit clock prescaler (CLKPS).
This register is cleared on reset. The register format is
shown below. 
 CLKPS
The Clock Prescaler field specifies the divisor
used to generate the Timer Clock from the
System Clock. When the timer is configured to
use the prescaled clock, the System Clock is
divided by (CLKPS + 1) to produce the timer
clock. Therefore, the System Clock divisor
can range from 1 to 32. 
26.5.2
Clock Unit Control Register (TCKC)
The TCKC register is a byte-wide, read/write register that
selects the clock source for each timer/counter. Selecting
the clock source also starts the counter. This register is
cleared on reset, which disables the timer/counters. The
register format is shown below. 
C1CSEL
The Counter 1 Clock Select field specifies the
clock mode for Timer/Counter 1 as follows:
000 – No clock (Timer/Counter 1 stopped,
modes 1, 2, and 3 only).
001 – Prescaled System Clock.
010 – External event on TB (modes 1 and 3
only).
011 – Pulse-accumulate mode based on TB
(modes 1 and 3 only).
100 – Slow Clock.*
101 – Reserved.
110 – Reserved.
111 – Reserved.
C2CSEL
The Counter 2 Clock Select field specifies the
clock mode for Timer/Counter 2 as follows:
000 – No clock (Timer/Counter 2 stopped,
modes 1, 2, and 3 only).
001 – Prescaled System Clock.
010 – External event on TB (modes 1 and 3
only).
011 – Pulse-accumulate mode based on TB
(modes 1 and 3 only).
100 – Slow Clock*
101 – Reserved.
110 – Reserved.
111 – Reserved.
* Operation of the Slow Clock is determined by the CRC-
TRL.SCLK control bit, as described in Section 11.9.1. 
26.5.3
Timer/Counter 1 Register (TCNT1)
The TCNT1 register is a word-wide, read/write register that
holds the current count value for Timer/Counter 1. The reg-
ister contents are not affected by a reset and are unknown
after power-up. 
26.5.4
Timer/Counter 2 Register (TCNT2)
The TCNT2 register is a word-wide, read/write register that
holds the current count value for Timer/Counter 2. The reg-
ister contents are not affected by a reset and are unknown
after power-up.
