Clock control
Clock selection
At block level, input clock signals of each channel can either be connected to the external inputs
TCLK0, TCLK1 or TCLK2, or be connected to the configurable I/O signals A0, A1 or A2 for
chaining by writing to the BMR register. See
Each channel can independently select an internal or external clock source for its counter:
• Internal clock signals: TIMER_CLOCK1, TIMER_CLOCK2, TIMER_CLOCK3,
• External clock signals: XC0, XC1 or XC2. See the Module Configuration Chapter for details
This selection is made by the Clock Selection field in the Channel n Mode Register
(CMRn.TCCLKS).
The selected clock can be inverted with the Clock Invert bit in CMRn (CMRn.CLKI). This allows
counting on the opposite edges of the clock.
The burst function allows the clock to be validated when an external signal is high. The Burst
Signal Selection field in the CMRn register (CMRn.BURST) defines this signal.
Note:
Figure 23-2. Clock Selection
The clock of each counter can be controlled in two different ways: it can be enabled/disabled
and started/stopped. See
TIMER_CLOCK4, TIMER_CLOCK5. See the Module Configuration Chapter for details about
the connection of these clock sources.
about the connection of these clock sources.
In all cases, if an external clock is used, the duration of each of its levels must be longer than the
CLK_TC period. The external clock frequency must be at least 2.5 times lower than the CLK_TC.
