• Bit 2:0 – CS22:0: Clock Select
The three Clock Select bits select the clock source to be used by the Timer/Counter, see
Table 64.
Timer/Counter Register –
TCNT2
The Timer/Counter Register gives direct access, both for read and write operations, to
the Timer/Counter unit 8-bit counter. Writing to the TCNT2 Register blocks (removes)
the Compare Match on the following timer clock. Modifying the counter (TCNT2) while
the counter is running, introduces a risk of missing a Compare Match between TCNT2
and the OCR2 Register.
Output Compare Register –
OCR2
The Output Compare Register contains an 8-bit value that is continuously compared
with the counter value (TCNT2). A match can be used to generate an output compare
interrupt, or to generate a waveform output on the OC2 pin.
