The AVR core combines a rich instruction set with 32 general-purpose working registers. All the 32 registers are directly connected to the Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), allowing two independent registers to be accessed in one single instruction executed in one clock cycle. The resulting architecture is more code efficient while achieving throughputs up to ten times faster than conventional CISC microcontrollers.
The AT90S4434/8535 provides the following features: 4K/8K bytes of In-System Programmable Flash, 256/512 bytes EEPROM, 256/512 bytes SRAM, 32 general-purpose I/O lines, 32 general-purpose working registers, Real-time Clock (RTC), three flexible timer/counters with compare modes, internal and external interrupts, a programmable serial UART, 8-channel, 10-bit ADC, programmable Watchdog Timer with internal oscillator, an SPI serial port and three software­selectable power-saving modes. The Idle Mode stops the CPU while allowing the SRAM, timer/counters, SPI port and interrupt system to continue functioning. The Power-down Mode saves the register contents but freezes the oscillator, dis­abling all other chip functions until the next interrupt or hardware reset. In Power Save Mode, the timer oscillator continues to run, allowing the user to maintain a timer base while the rest of the device is sleeping.
The device is manufactured using Atmels high-density nonvolatile memory technology. The on-chip ISP Flash allows the program memory to be reprogrammed in-system through an SPI serial interface or by a conventional nonvolatile memory programmer. By combining an 8-bit RISC CPU with In-System Programmable Flash on a monolithic chip, the Atmel AT90S4434/8535 is a powerful microcontroller that provides a highly flexible and cost effective solution to many embedded control applications.
The AT90S4434/8535 AVR is supported with a full suite of program and system development tools including: C compilers, macro assemblers, program debugger/simulators, in-circuit emulators and evaluation kits.

Comparison between AT90S4434 and AT90S8535

Port A (PA7..PA0)

Port A is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port. Port pins can provide internal pull-up resistors (selected for each bit). The Port A output buffers can sink 20 mA and can drive LED displays directly. When pins PA0 to PA7 are used as inputs and are externally pulled low, they will source current if the internal pull-up resistors are activated.
Port A also serves as the analog inputs to the A/D Converter. The Port A pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

Port B (PB7..PB0)

Port B is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors. The Port B output buffers can sink 20 mA. As inputs, Port B pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. Port B also serves the functions of various special features of the AT90S4434/8535 as listed on page 71.

The Port B pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

Port C (PC7..PC0)

Port C is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors. The Port C output buffers can sink 20 mA. As inputs, Port C pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated. Two Port C pins can alter­natively be used as oscillator for Timer/Counter2.
The Port C pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

Port D (PD7..PD0)

Port D is an 8-bit bi-directional I/O port with internal pull-up resistors. The Port D output buffers can sink 20 mA. As inputs, Port D pins that are externally pulled low will source current if the pull-up resistors are activated.
Port D also serves the functions of various special features of the AT90S4434/8535 as listed on page 79. The Port D pins are tri-stated when a reset condition becomes active, even if the clock is not running.

RESET

Reset input. An external reset is generated by a low level on the RESET pin. Reset pulses longer than 50 ns will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset.

XTAL1

Input to the inverting oscillator amplifier and input to the internal clock operating circuit.

XTAL2

Output from the inverting oscillator amplifier.

AVCC

This is the supply voltage pin for Port A and the A/D Converter. If the ADC is not used, this pin must be connected to VCC. If the ADC is used, this pin must be connected to VCC via a low-pass filter. See page 61 for details on operation of the ADC.

AREF

This is the analog reference input for the A/D Converter. For ADC operations, a voltage in the range 2V to AV applied to this pin.

AGND

Analog ground. If the board has a separate analog ground plane, this pin should be connected to this ground plane. Other­wise, connect to GND.

Timer Oscillator

For the Timer Oscillator pins, PC6(TOSC1) and PC7(TOSC2), the crystal is connected directly between the pins. No exter­nal capacitors are needed. The oscillator is optimized for use with a 32,768 Hz watch crystal. An external clock signal applied to TOSC1 goes through the same amplifier having a bandwidth of 256 kHz. The external clock signal should there­fore be in the interval 0 Hz - 256 kHz.

Architectural Overview

The fast-access register file concept contains 32 x 8-bit general-purpose working registers with a single clock cycle access time. This means that during one single clock cycle, one Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU) operation is executed. Two operands are output from the register file, the operation is executed and the result is stored back in the register file – in one clock cycle.
Six of the 32 registers can be used as three 16-bit indirect address register pointers for Data Space addressing, enabling efficient address calculations. One of the three address pointers is also used as the address pointer for the constant table look-up function. These added function registers are the 16-bit X-register, Y-register and Z-register.

The ALU supports arithmetic and logic functions between registers or between a constant and a register. Single register operations are also executed in the ALU. Figure 4 shows the AT90S4434/8535 AVR RISC microcontroller architecture.
In addition to the register operation, the conventional memory addressing modes can be used on the register file as well. This is enabled by the fact that the register file is assigned the 32 lowermost Data Space addresses ($00 - $1F), allowing them to be accessed as though they were ordinary memory locations.

AT90S/LS4434 and AT90S/LS8535
AT90S/LS4434 and AT90S/LS8535
The I/O memory space contains 64 addresses for CPU peripheral functions as Control Registers, Timer/Counters, A/D converters and other I/O functions. The I/O memory can be accessed directly or as the Data Space locations following those of the register file, $20 - $5F.
The AVR uses a Harvard architecture concept – with separate memories and buses for program and data. The program memory is executed with a two-stage pipeline. While one instruction is being executed, the next instruction is pre-fetched from the program memory. This concept enables instructions to be executed in every clock cycle. The program memory is in-system downloadable Flash memory.
With the relative jump and call instructions, the whole 2K/4K address space is directly accessed. Most AVR instructions have a single 16-bit word format. Every program memory address contains a 16- or 32-bit instruction.
During interrupts and subroutine calls, the return address Program Counter (PC) is stored on the stack. The stack is effec­tively allocated in the general data SRAM and consequently, the stack size is only limited by the total SRAM size and the usage of the SRAM. All user programs must initialize the SP in the reset routine (before subroutines or interrupts are executed). The 9/10-bit stack pointer (SP) is read/write-accessible in the I/O space.
The 256/512 bytes data SRAM can be easily accessed through the five different addressing modes supported in the AVR architecture.
The memory spaces in the AVR architecture are all linear and regular memory maps.

A flexible interrupt module has its control registers in the I/O space with an additional global interrupt enable bit in the status register. All the different interrupts have a separate interrupt vector in the interrupt vector table at the beginning of the pro­gram memory. The different interrupts have priority in accordance with their interrupt vector position. The lower the interrupt vector address, the higher the priority.

All the register operating instructions in the instruction set have direct and single-cycle access to all registers. The only exception is the five constant arithmetic and logic instructions SBCI, SUBI, CPI, ANDI and ORI between a constant and a register and the LDI instruction for load immediate constant data. These instructions apply to the second half of the regis­ters in the register file (R16..R31). The general SBC, SUB, CP, AND and OR and all other operations between two registers or on a single register apply to the entire register file.
As shown in Figure 6, each register is also assigned a data memory address, mapping them directly into the first 32 loca­tions of the user Data Space. Although not being physically implemented as SRAM locations, this memory organization provides great flexibility in access of the registers, as the X, Y and Z registers can be set to index any register in the file.

X-register, Y-register and Z-register

The registers R26..R31 have some added functions to their general-purpose usage. These registers are address pointers for indirect addressing of the Data Space. The three indirect address registers, X, Y and Z, are defined in Figure 7.

ALU – Arithmetic Logic Unit

The high-performance AVR ALU operates in direct connection with all the 32 general-purpose working registers. Within a single clock cycle, ALU operations between registers in the register file are executed. The ALU operations are divided into three main categories: arithmetic, logical and bit functions.

In-System Programmable Flash Program Memory

The AT90S4434/8535 contains 4K/8K bytes on-chip, In-System Programmable Flash memory for program storage. Since all instructions are 16- or 32-bit words, the Flash is organized as 2K/4K x 16. The Flash memory has an endurance of at least 1000 write/erase cycles. The AT90S4434/8535 Program Counter (PC) is 11/12 bits wide, thus addressing the 2048/4096 program memory addresses.
See page 93 for a detailed description on Flash data downloading. See page 10 for the different program memory addressing modes.

The lower 352/608 data memory locations address the Register file, the I/O memory and the internal data SRAM. The first 96 locations address the Register file + I/O memory, and the next 256/512 locations address the internal data SRAM.
The five different addressing modes for the data memory cover: Direct, Indirect with Displacement, Indirect, Indirect with Pre-decrement and Indirect with Post-increment. In the register file, registers R26 to R31 feature the indirect addressing pointer registers.
The direct addressing reaches the entire data space. The Indirect with Displacement mode features 63 address locations reached from the base address given by the Y- or
Z-registers.
9
When using register indirect addressing modes with automatic pre-decrement and post-increment, the address registers X, Y and Z are decremented and incremented.
The 32 general-purpose working registers, 64 I/O registers and the 256/512 bytes of internal data SRAM in the AT90S4434/8535 are all accessible through all these addressing modes.
See the next section for a detailed description of the different addressing modes.

Program and Data Addressing Modes

The AT90S4434/8535 AVR RISC microcontroller supports powerful and efficient addressing modes for access to the pro­gram memory (Flash) and data memory (SRAM, register file and I/O memory). This section describes the different addressing modes supported by the AVR architecture. In the figures, OP means the operation code part of the instruction word. To simplify, not all figures show the exact location of the addressing bits.

EEPROM Data Memory

The AT90S4434/8535 contains 256/512 bytes of data EEPROM memory. It is organized as a separate data space, in which single bytes can be read and written. The EEPROM has an endurance of at least 100,000 write/erase cycles. The access between the EEPROM and the CPU is described on page 48 specifying the EEPROM address registers, the EEPROM data register and the EEPROM control register.
For the SPI data downloading, see page 93 for a detailed description.

Memory Access Times and Instruction Execution Timing

This section describes the general access timing concepts for instruction execution and internal memory access. The AVR CPU is driven by the System Clock Ø, directly generated from the external clock crystal for the chip. No internal
clock division is used. Figure 20 shows the parallel instruction fetches and instruction executions enabled by the Harvard architecture and the
fast-access register file concept. This is the basic pipelining concept to obtain up to 1 MIPS per MHz with the corresponding unique results for functions per cost, functions per clocks and functions per power-unit.

All AT90S4434/8535 I/Os and peripherals are placed in the I/O space. The I/O locations are accessed by the IN and OUT instructions transferring data between the 32 general-purpose working registers and the I/O space. I/O registers within the address range $00 - $1F are directly bit-accessible using the SBI and CBI instructions. In these registers, the value of single bits can be checked by using the SBIS and SBIC instructions. Refer to the instruction set section for more details. When using the I/O specific commands IN and OUT, the I/O addresses $00 - $3F must be used. When addressing I/O reg­isters as SRAM, $20 must be added to these addresses. All I/O register addresses throughout this document are shown with the SRAM address in parentheses.
For compatibility with future devices, reserved bits should be written to zero if accessed. Reserved I/O memory addresses should never be written.
Some of the status flags are cleared by writing a logical “1” to them. Note that the CBI and SBI instructions will operate on all bits in the I/O register, writing a “1” back into any flag read as set, thus clearing the flag. The CBI and SBI instructions work with registers $00 to $1F only.
The I/O and peripherals control registers are explained in the following sections.

Status Register – SREG

The AVR Status Register (SREG) at I/O space location $3F ($5F) is defined as:
Bit 76543210
$3F ($5F) I T H S V N Z C SREG
Read/Write R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W R/W
Initial value 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Bit 7 – I: Global Interrupt Enable
The global interrupt enable bit must be set (one) for the interrupts to be enabled. The individual interrupt enable control is then performed in separate control registers. If the global interrupt enable register is cleared (zero), none of the interrupts are enabled independent of the individual interrupt enable settings. The I-bit is cleared by hardware after an interrupt has occurred and is set by the RETI instruction to enable subsequent interrupts.
Bit 6 – T: Bit Copy Storage
The bit copy instructions BLD (Bit LoaD) and BST (Bit STore) use the T-bit as source and destination for the operated bit. A bit from a register in the register file can be copied into T by the BST instruction and a bit in T can be copied into a bit in a register in the register file by the BLD instruction.
Bit 5 – H: Half-carry Flag
The half-carry flag H indicates a half-carry in some arithmetic operations. See the Instruction Set description for detailed information.
Bit 4 – S: Sign Bit, S = N V
The S-bit is always an exclusive or between the negative flag N and the twos complement overflow flag V. See the Instruc­tion Set description for detailed information.
Bit 3 – V: Twos Complement Overflow Flag
The twos complement overflow flag V supports twos complement arithmetics. See the Instruction Set description for detailed information.
Bit 2 – N: Negative Flag
The negative flag N indicates a negative result from an arithmetical or logical operation. See the Instruction Set description for detailed information.
Bit 1 – Z: Zero Flag
The zero flag Z indicates a zero result from an arithmetical or logic operation. See the Instruction Set description for detailed information.
Bit 0 – C: Carry Flag
The carry flag C indicates a carry in an arithmetical or logical operation. See the Instruction Set description for detailed information.
Note that the Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored when returning from an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software.

Stack Pointer – SP

The AT90S4434/8535 Stack Pointer is implemented as two 8-bit registers in the I/O space locations $3E ($5E) and $3D ($5D). As the AT90S4434/8535 data memory has $15F/$25F locations, 9/10 bits are used.

The Stack Pointer points to the data SRAM stack area where the Subroutine and Interrupt stacks are located. This stack space in the data SRAM must be defined by the program before any subroutine calls are executed or interrupts are enabled. The Stack Pointer must be set to point above $60. The Stack Pointer is decremented by 1 when data is pushed onto the stack with the PUSH instruction and it is decremented by 2 when an address is pushed onto the stack with sub­routine calls and interrupts. The Stack Pointer is incremented by 1 when data is popped from the stack with the POP instruction and it is incremented by 2 when an address is popped from the stack with return from subroutine RET or return from interrupt RETI.

Reset and Interrupt Handling

The AT90S4434/8535 provides 16 different interrupt sources. These interrupts and the separate reset vector each have a separate program vector in the program memory space. All interrupts are assigned individual enable bits that must be set (one) together with the I-bit in the Status Register in order to enable the interrupt.
The lowest addresses in the program memory space are automatically defined as the Reset and Interrupt vectors. The complete list of vectors is shown in Table 3. The list also determines the priority levels of the different interrupts. The lower the address, the higher the priority level. RESET has the highest priority, and next is INT0 (the External Interrupt Request
0), etc.

Reset Sources

The AT90S4434/8535 has three sources of reset:
Power-on Reset. The MCU is reset when the supply voltage is below the Power-on Reset threshold (V
POT
).
External Reset. The MCU is reset when a low level is present on the RESET pin for more than 50 ns.
Watchdog Reset. The MCU is reset when the Watchdog timer period expires and the Watchdog is enabled.
During reset, all I/O registers are set to their initial values and the program starts execution from address $000. The instruc­tion placed in address $000 must be an RJMP (relative jump) instruction to the reset handling routine. If the program never enables an interrupt source, the interrupt vectors are not used and regular program code can be placed at these locations. The circuit diagram in Figure 23 shows the reset logic. Table 4 defines the timing and electrical parameters of the reset circuitry.

Power-on Reset

A Power-on Reset (POR) circuit ensures that the device is reset from power-on. As shown in Figure 23, an internal timer clocked from the Watchdog Timer oscillator prevents the MCU from starting until after a certain period after V reached the Power-on Threshold voltage (V
), regardless of the VCC rise time (see Figure 24).

External Reset

An external reset is generated by a low level on the RESET
pin. Reset pulses longer than 50 ns will generate a reset, even if the clock is not running. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate a reset. When the applied signal reaches the Reset Threshold Voltage (V
) on its positive edge, the delay timer starts the MCU after the Time-out period t

MCU Status Register – MCUSR

The MCU Status Register provides information on which reset source caused an MCU reset.

Bits 7..2 – Res: Reserved Bits
These bits are reserved bits in the AT90S4434/8535 and always read as zero.
Bit 1 – EXTRF: External Reset Flag
After a power-on reset, this bit is undefined (X). It can only be set by an External Reset. A Watchdog Reset will leave this bit unchanged. The bit is reset by writing a logical “1” to the bit.
Bit 0 – PORF: Power-on Reset Flag
This bit is only set by a Power-on Reset. A Watchdog Reset or an External Reset will leave this bit unchanged. The bit is reset by writing a logical “1” to the bit.
To summarize, Table 6 shows the value of these two bits after the three modes of reset.
Table 6. PORF and EXTRF Values after Reset
Reset Source EXTRF PORF

To make use of these bits to identify a reset condition, the user software should clear both the PORF and EXTRF bits as early as possible in the program. Checking the PORF and EXTRF values is done before the bits are cleared. If the bit is cleared before an External or Watchdog Reset occurs, the source of reset can be found by using Table 7.

Interrupt Handling

The AT90S4434/8535 has two 8-bit interrupt mask control registers: GIMSK (General Interrupt Mask register) and TIMSK (Timer/Counter Interrupt Mask register).
When an interrupt occurs, the Global Interrupt Enable I-bit is cleared (zero) and all interrupts are disabled. The user soft­ware can set (one) the I-bit to enable nested interrupts. The I-bit is set (one) when a Return from Interrupt instruction (RETI) is executed.
When the Program Counter is vectored to the actual interrupt vector in order to execute the interrupt handling routine, hard­ware clears the corresponding flag that generated the interrupt. Some of the interrupt flags can also be cleared by writing a logical “1” to the flag bit position(s) to be cleared. If an interrupt condition occurs when the corresponding interrupt enable bit is cleared (zero), the interrupt flag will be set and remembered until the interrupt is enabled or the flag is cleared by software.
If one or more interrupt conditions occur when the global interrupt enable bit is cleared (zero), the corresponding interrupt flag(s) will be set and remembered until the global interrupt enable bit is set (one) and will be executed by order of priority.
Note that external level interrupt does not have a flag and will only be remembered for as long as the interrupt condition is active.
Note that the Status Register is not automatically stored when entering an interrupt routine and restored when returning from an interrupt routine. This must be handled by software.

External Interrupts

The external interrupts are triggered by the INT1 and INT0 pins. Observe that, if enabled, the interrupts will trigger even if the INT0/INT1 pins are configured as outputs. This feature provides a way of generating a software interrupt. The external interrupts can be triggered by a falling or rising edge or a low level. This is set up as indicated in the specification for the MCU Control Register (MCUCR). When the external interrupt is enabled and is configured as level-triggered, the interrupt will trigger as long as the pin is held low.
The external interrupts are set up as described in the specification for the MCU Control Register (MCUCR).

Interrupt Response Time

The interrupt execution response for all the enabled AVR interrupts is four clock cycles minimum. Four clock cycles after the interrupt flag has been set, the program vector address for the actual interrupt handling routine is executed. During this 4-clock-cycle period, the Program Counter (2 bytes) is pushed onto the stack and the Stack Pointer is decremented by 2. The vector is normally a relative jump to the interrupt routine and this jump takes two clock cycles. If an interrupt occurs during execution of a multi-cycle instruction, this instruction is completed before the interrupt is served.
A return from an interrupt handling routine (same as for a subroutine call routine) takes four clock cycles. During these four clock cycles, the Program Counter (2 bytes) is popped back from the stack, the Stack Pointer is incremented by 2 and the I-flag in SREG is set. When the AVR exits from an interrupt, it will always return to the main program and execute one more instruction before any pending interrupt is served.

Bits 3, 2 – ISC11, ISC10: Interrupt Sense Control 1 Bits 1 and 0
The External Interrupt 1 is activated by the external pin INT1 if the SREG I-flag and the corresponding interrupt mask in the GIMSK is set. The level and edges on the external INT1 pin that activate the interrupt are defined in Table 9.

The value on the INT pin is sampled before detecting edges. If edge interrupt is selected, pulses that last longer than one CPU clock period will generate an interrupt. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate an interrupt. If low-level inter­rupt is selected, the low level must be held until the completion of the currently executing instruction to generate an interrupt. If enabled, a level-triggered interrupt will generate an interrupt request as long as the pin is held low.

01Reserved
1 0 The falling edge of INT0 generates an interrupt request.
1 1 The rising edge of INT0 generates an interrupt request.
The value on the INT pin is sampled before detecting edges. If edge interrupt is selected, pulses that last longer than one CPU clock period will generate an interrupt. Shorter pulses are not guaranteed to generate an interrupt. If low-level inter­rupt is selected, the low level must be held until the completion of the currently executing instruction to generate an interrupt. If enabled, a level-triggered interrupt will generate an interrupt request as long as the pin is held low.

Sleep Modes

To enter any of the three sleep modes, the SE bit in MCUCR must be set (one) and a SLEEP instruction must be executed. The SM0 and SM1 bits in the MCUCR register select which sleep mode (Idle, Power-down or Power Save) will be activated by the SLEEP instruction. See Table 8.
If an enabled interrupt occurs while the MCU is in a sleep mode, the MCU wakes up, executes the interrupt routine and resumes execution from the instruction following SLEEP. The contents of the register file, SRAM and I/O memory are unaltered. If a reset occurs during Sleep Mode, the MCU wakes up and executes from the Reset vector.

Idle Mode

When the SM1/SM0 bits are set to 00, the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter the Idle Mode, stopping the CPU but allowing SPI, UARTs, Analog Comparator, ADC, Timer/Counters, Watchdog and the interrupt system to continue operat­ing. This enables the MCU to wake up from external triggered interrupts as well as internal ones like the Timer Overflow and UART Receive Complete interrupts. If wake-up from the Analog Comparator Interrupt is not required, the Analog Com­parator can be powered down by setting the ACD-bit in the Analog Comparator Control and Status Register (ACSR). This will reduce power consumption in Idle Mode. When the MCU wakes up from Idle Mode, the CPU starts program execution immediately.

Power-down Mode

When the SM1/SM0 bits are set to 10, the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter the Power-down Mode. In this mode, the external oscillator is stopped while the external interrupts and the Watchdog (if enabled) continue operating. Only an external reset, a Watchdog reset (if enabled) or an external level interrupt can wake up the MCU.
Note that when a level-triggered interrupt is used for wake-up from power-down, the low level must be held for a time longer than the reset delay Time-out period t
When waking up from Power-down Mode, a delay from the wake-up condition occurs until the wake-up becomes effective. This allows the clock to restart and become stable after having been stopped. The wake-up period is equal to the reset period, as shown in Table 4 on page 21.
If the wake-up condition disappears before the MCU wakes up and starts to execute, e.g., a low-level on is not held long enough, the interrupt causing the wake-up will not be executed.

Power Save Mode

When the SM1/SM0 bits are 11, the SLEEP instruction makes the MCU enter the Power Save Mode. This mode is identical to Power-down, with one exception: If Timer/Counter2 is clocked asynchronously, i.e., the AS2 bit in ASSR is set, Timer/Counter2 will run during sleep. In addition to the power-down wake-up sources, the device can also wake up from either a Timer Overflow or Output Compare event from Timer/Counter2 if the corresponding Timer/Counter2 interrupt enable bits are set in TIMSK and the global interrupt enable bit in SREG is set.
When waking up from Power Save Mode by an external interrupt, two instruction cycles are executed before the interrupt flags are updated. When waking up by the asynchronous timer, three instruction cycles are executed before the flags are updated. During these cycles, the processor executes instructions, but the interrupt condition is not readable and the inter­rupt routine has not started yet.
When waking up from Power Save Mode by an asynchronous timer interrupt, the part will wake up even if global interrupts are disabled.
If the asynchronous timer is not clocked asynchronously, Power-down Mode is recommended instead of Power Save Mode because the contents of the registers in the asynchronous timer should be considered undefined after wake-up in Power Save Mode, even if AS2 is 0.

Timer/Counters

The AT90S4434/8535 provides three general-purpose Timer/Counters – two 8-bit T/Cs and one 16-bit T/C. Timer/Counter2 can optionally be asynchronously clocked from an external oscillator. This oscillator is optimized for use with a 32.768 kHz watch crystal, enabling use of Timer/Counter2 as a Real-time Clock (RTC). Timer/Counters 0 and 1 have individual prescaling selection from the same 10-bit prescaling timer. Timer/Counter2 has its own prescaler. These Timer/Counters can either be used as a timer with an internal clock time base or as a counter with an external pin connec­tion that triggers the counting.

For Timer/Counters 0 and 1, the four different prescaled selections are: CK/8, CK/64, CK/256 and CK/1024, where CK is the oscillator clock. For the two Timer/Counters 0 and 1, CK, external source and stop can also be selected as clock sources.
