Overview

Timer/Counter1 is a general purpose high speed Timer/Counter module, with three independent

Output Compare Units, and with PWM support.

The Timer/Counter1 features a high resolution and a high accuracy usage with the lower pres-

caling opportunities. It can also support three accurate and high speed Pulse Width Modulators

using clock speeds up to 64 MHz. In PWM mode Timer/Counter1 and the output compare regis-

ters serve as triple stand-alone PWMs with non-overlapping non-inverted and inverted outputs.

Similarly, the high prescaling opportunities make this unit useful for lower speed functions or

exact timing functions with infrequent actions. A simplified block diagram of the Timer/Counter1

is shown in F i gure 16-1 . For a c tual p l aceme n t of the I/O pins, refer to “Pinout

ATtiny261/461/861” on page 2. The device-specific I/O register and bit locations are listed in the

“Register Description” on page 115.
