Overview

Timer/Counter2 is a general purpose, single compare unit, 8-bit Timer/Counter module. A simpli-

fied block diagram of the 8-bit Timer/Counter is shown in Figure 17-1. For the actual placement

of I/O pins, refer to “Pinout ATmega16A” on page 2. CPU accessible I/O Registers, including I/O

bits and I/O pins, are shown in bold. The device-specific I/O Register and bit locations are listed

in the “Register Description” on page 130.

Registers

The Timer/Counter (TCNT2) and Output Compare Register (OCR2) are 8-bit registers. Interrupt

request (shorten as Int.Req.) signals are all visible in the Timer Interrupt Flag Register (TIFR).

All interrupts are individually masked with the Timer Interrupt Mask Register (TIMSK). TIFR and

TIMSK are not shown in the figure since these registers are shared by other timer units.
