2552I–AVR–04/07
Note: 1. A special case occurs when OCR0A equals TOP and COM0A1 is set. In this case,
the compare match is ignored, but the set or clear is done at TOP. See “Phase Cor-
rect PWM Mode” on page 96 for more details.
• Bit 2:0 – CS02:0: Clock Select
The three Clock Select bits select the clock source to be used by the Timer/Counter.
If external pin modes are used for the Timer/Counter0, transitions on the T0 pin will
clock the counter even if the pin is configured as an output. This feature allows software
control of the counting.
TCNT0 – Timer/Counter
Register
The Timer/Counter Register gives direct access, both for read and write operations, to
the Timer/Counter unit 8-bit counter. Writing to the TCNT0 Register blocks (removes)
the compare match on the following timer clock. Modifying the counter (TCNT0) while
the counter is running, introduces a risk of missing a compare match between TCNT0
and the OCR0A Register.
