Timer/Counter Clock Sources
Counter Unit
ATmega48/88/168
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
The double buffered Output Compare Registers (OCR0A and OCR0B) are compared with the
Timer/Counter value at all times. The result of the compare can be used by the Waveform Gen-
erator to generate a PWM or variable frequency output on the Output Compare pins (OC0A and
OC0B).
event will also set the Compare Flag (OCF0A or OCF0B) which can be used to generate an Out-
put Compare interrupt request.
The Timer/Counter can be clocked by an internal or an external clock source. The clock source
is selected by the Clock Select logic which is controlled by the Clock Select (CS02:0) bits
located in the Timer/Counter Control Register (TCCR0B). For details on clock sources and pres-
caler, see
The main part of the 8-bit Timer/Counter is the programmable bi-directional counter unit.

Signal description (internal signals):
Depending of the mode of operation used, the counter is cleared, incremented, or decremented
at each timer clock (clk
