7.1 Timer2 Prescaler and Postscaler
The prescaler and postscaler counters are cleared
when any of the following occurs:
• a write to the TMR2 register
• a write to the T2CON register
• any device RESET (POR, MCLR
Reset, WDT
Reset, or BOR)
TMR2 is not cleared when T2CON is written.
7.2 Output of TMR2
The output of TMR2 (before the postscaler) is fed to the
SSP module, which optionally uses it to generate shift
clock.

Legend: x = unknown, u = unchanged, - = unimplemented, read as '0'. Shaded cells are not used by the Timer2 module.
Note 1: Bits PSPIE and PSPIF are reserved on the PIC16F873/876; always maintain these bits clear.
