bit 7 bit 0
Legend:
R = Readable bit W = Writable bit U = Unimplemented bit, read as ‘0’
-n = Value at POR ‘1’ = Bit is set ‘0’ = Bit is cleared x = Bit is unknown
bit 15 TON: Timer3 On bit
(1)
1 = Starts 16-bit Timer3
0 = Stops 16-bit Timer3
bit 14 Unimplemented: Read as ‘0’
bit 13 TSIDL: Stop in Idle Mode bit
(1)
1 = Discontinue module operation when device enters Idle mode
0 = Continue module operation in Idle mode
bit 12-7 Unimplemented: Read as ‘0’
bit 6 TGATE: Timer3 Gated Time Accumulation Enable bit
(1)
When TCS = 1:
This bit is ignored.
When TCS = 0:
1 = Gated time accumulation is enabled
0 = Gated time accumulation is disabled
bit 5-4 TCKPS<1:0>: Timer3 Input Clock Prescale Select bits
(1)
11 = 1:256
10 = 1:64
01 = 1:8
00 = 1:1
bit 3-2 Unimplemented: Read as ‘0’
bit 1 TCS: Timer3 Clock Source Select bit
(1)
1 = External clock from the T3CK pin (on the rising edge)
0 = Internal clock (F
OSC/2)
bit 0 Unimplemented: Read as ‘0’
Note 1: When 32-bit operation is enabled (T2CON<3> = 1), these bits have no effect on Timer3 operation; all timer
functions are set through T2CON.
