sampling, the maximum frequency of an external clock it can detect is half the sampling fre-

quency (Nyquist sampling theorem). However, due to variation of the system clock frequency

and duty cycle caused by Oscillator source (crystal, resonator, and capacitors) tolerances, it is

recommended that maximum frequency of an external clock source is less than fclk_I/O/2.5.

An external clock source can not be prescaled.

Note:

T0) is shown in Figure 12-1 on page 77.

12.4 Register Description.

12.4.1

GTCCR – General Timer/Counter Control Register

• Bit 7 – TSM: Timer/Counter Synchronization Mode

Writing the TSM bit to one activates the Timer/Counter Synchronization mode. In this mode, the

value that is written to the PSR10 bit is kept, hence keeping the Prescaler Reset signal asserted.

This ensures that the Timer/Counter is halted and can be configured without the risk of advanc-

ing during configuration. When the TSM bit is written to zero, the PSR10 bit is cleared by

hardware, and the Timer/Counter start counting.

• Bit 0 – PSR10: Prescaler Reset Timer/Counter0

When this bit is one, the Timer/Counter0 prescaler will be Reset. This bit is normally cleared

immediately by hardware, except if the TSM bit is set.
