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 has a control register shown in Register 13-1.

Timer2 can be shut-off by clearing control bit TMR2ON

(T2CON<2>)

minimize

power

consumption.

Figure 13-1 is a simplified block diagram of the Timer2

module. Register 13-1 shows the Timer2 Control regis-

ter. The prescaler and postscaler selection of Timer2

are controlled by this register.

Timer2 Operation

Timer2 can be used as the PWM time base for the

PWM mode of the CCP module. The TMR2 register is

readable and writable and is cleared on any device

RESET. The input clock (FOSC/4) has a prescale option

1:1,

1:4

1:16,

selected

control

bits

T2CKPS1:T2CKPS0 (T2CON<1:0>). 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 (PIR1<1>).

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, Watchdog Timer Reset, or Brown-out

Reset)

TMR2 is not cleared when T2CON is written.
