6.16.2 Resolution versus overflow and the PRESCALER

Counter increment frequency:

fRTC [kHz] = 32.768 / (PRESCALER + 1 )

The PRESCALER register is read/write when the RTC is stopped. The PRESCALER register is read-only once

the RTC is STARTed. Writing to the PRESCALER register when the RTC is started has no effect.

The PRESCALER is restarted on START, CLEAR and TRIGOVRFLW, that is, the prescaler value is latched to an

internal register (<<PRESC>>) on these tasks.

Examples:

1. Desired COUNTER frequency 100 Hz (10 ms counter period)

PRESCALER = round(32.768 kHz / 100 Hz) - 1 = 327

fRTC = 99.9 Hz

10009.576 μs counter period

2. Desired COUNTER frequency 8 Hz (125 ms counter period)

PRESCALER = round(32.768 kHz / 8 Hz) – 1 = 4095

fRTC = 8 Hz

6.16.3 COUNTER register

The COUNTER increments on LFCLK when the internal PRESCALER register (<<PRESC>>) is 0x00.

<<PRESC>> is reloaded from the PRESCALER register. If enabled, the TICK event occurs on each increment

of the COUNTER. The TICK event is disabled by default.
