TIMER2 MODULE

The Timer2 module timer has the following features:

• 8-bit timer (TMR2 register)

• 8-bit period register (PR2)

• Readable and writable (both registers)

• Software programmable prescaler (1:1, 1:4, 1:16)

• Software programmable postscaler (1:1 to 1:16)

• Interrupt on TMR2 match of PR2

• SSP module optional use of TMR2 output to

generate clock shift

Timer2 can be shut-off by clearing control bit TMR2ON

(T2CON register), to minimize power consumption.

Figure 12-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer2

module. The prescaler and postscaler selection of

Timer2 are controlled by this register.

12.1

Timer2 Operation

Timer2 can be used as the PWM time-base for the PWM

mode of the CCP module. The TMR2 register is read-

able and writable, and is cleared on any device RESET.

The input clock (FOSC/4) has a prescale option of 1:1,

1:4,

1:16,

selected

control

bits

T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON register). The match out-

put of TMR2 goes through a 4-bit postscaler (which

gives a 1:1 to 1:16 scaling inclusive) to generate a TMR2

interrupt (latched in flag bit TMR2IF, PIR registers).

The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared

when any of the following occurs:

• A write to the TMR2 register

• A write to the T2CON register

• Any device RESET (Power-on Reset, MCLR

Reset, or Watchdog Timer Reset)

TMR2 is not cleared when T2CON is written.

Note:

Timer2 is disabled on POR.
