Overview

Timer/Counter0 is a general purpose, single compare unit, 8-bit Timer/Counter module. A simpli-

fied block diagram of the 8-bit Timer/Counter is shown in Figure 13-1. For the actual placement

of I/O pins, refer to ”Pinout ATmega3290P” on page 2 and ”Pinout ATmega329P” on page 3.

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 the ”Register Description” on page 154.

Registers

The Timer/Counter (TCNT0) and Output Compare Register (OCR0A) are 8-bit registers. Inter-

rupt request (abbreviated to Int.Req. in the figure) signals are all visible in the Timer Interrupt

Flag Register (TIFR0). All interrupts are individually masked with the Timer Interrupt Mask Reg-

ister (TIMSK0). TIFR0 and TIMSK0 are not shown in the figure.

The Timer/Counter can be clocked internally, via the prescaler, or by an external clock source on

the T0 pin. The Clock Select logic block controls which clock source and edge the Timer/Counter

uses to increment (or decrement) its value. The Timer/Counter is inactive when no clock source

is selected. The output from the Clock Select logic is referred to as the timer clock (clk

T0).
