Timer/Counter Prescalers

For Timer/Counters 0 and 1, the four prescaled selections are: CK/8, CK/64, CK/256 and CK/1024, where CK is the oscilla-

tor clock. For the two Timer/Counters 0 and 1, CK, external source, and stop, can also be selected as clock sources.

Setting the PSR10 bit in SFIOR resets the prescaler. This allows the user to operate with a predictable prescaler. Note that

Timer/Counter1 and Timer/Counter 0 share the same prescaler and a prescaler reset will affect both Timer/Counters.
