4.3 Using Timer0 with an External
Clock
When no prescaler is used, the external clock input is
the same as the prescaler output. The synchronization
of T0CKI, with the internal phase clocks, is accom-
plished by sampling the prescaler output on the Q2 and
Q4 cycles of the internal phase clocks. Therefore, it is
necessary for T0CKI to be high for at least 2T
OSC (and
a small RC delay of 20 ns) and low for at least 2T
OSC
(and a small RC delay of 20 ns). Refer to the electrical
specification of the desired device.
REGISTER 4-1: OPTION_REG — OPTION REGISTER (ADDRESS: 81h)
Note: The ANSEL (91h) and CMCON (19h)
registers must be initialized to configure an
analog channel as a digital input. Pins
configured as analog inputs will read ‘0’.
The ANSEL register is defined for the
PIC16F676.
