27. TC – Timer/Counter

27.1 Overview

The TC consists of a counter, a prescaler, compare/capture channels and control logic. The counter can be set to count

events, or it can be configured to count clock pulses. The counter, together with the compare/capture channels, can be

configured to timestamp input events, allowing capture of frequency and pulse width. It can also perform waveform

generation, such as frequency generation and pulse-width modulation

(PWM).
