6.4
If control bit T1SYNC (T1CON<2>) is set, the external
clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues to
increment asynchronous to the internal phase clocks.
The timer will continue to run during SLEEP and can
generate an interrupt-on-overflow, which will wake-up
the processor. However, special precautions in soft-
ware are needed to read/write the timer (Section 6.4.1).
In Asynchronous Counter mode, Timer1 cannot be
used as a time-base for capture or compare opera-
tions.
6.4.1
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L while the timer is running
from an external asynchronous clock, will guarantee a
valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the
user should keep in mind that reading the 16-bit timer
in two 8-bit values itself, poses certain problems, since
the timer may overflow between the reads.
For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop
the timer and write the desired values. A write conten-
tion may occur by writing to the timer registers, while
the register is incrementing. This may produce an
unpredictable value in the timer register.
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care. Exam-
ples 12-2 and 12-3 in the PICmicro™ Mid-Range MCU
Family Reference Manual (DS33023) show how to
read and write Timer1 when it is running in Asynchro-
nous mode.
6.5
A crystal oscillator circuit is built-in between pins T1OSI
(input) and T1OSO (amplifier output). It is enabled by
setting control bit T1OSCEN (T1CON<3>). The oscilla-
tor is a low power oscillator, rated up to 200 kHz. It will
continue to run during SLEEP. It is primarily intended
for use with a 32 kHz crystal. Table 6-1 shows the
capacitor selection for the Timer1 oscillator.
The Timer1 oscillator is identical to the LP oscillator.
The user must provide a software time delay to ensure
proper oscillator start-up.

If the CCP1 or CCP2 module is configured in Compare
mode
(CCP1M3:CCP1M0 = 1011), this signal will reset
Timer1.
Timer1 must be configured for either Timer or Synchro-
nized Counter mode to take advantage of this feature.
If Timer1 is running in Asynchronous Counter mode,
this RESET operation may not work.
In the event that a write to Timer1 coincides with a spe-
cial event trigger from CCP1 or CCP2, the write will
take precedence.
In this mode of operation, the CCPRxH:CCPRxL regis-
ter pair effectively becomes the period register for
Timer1.
