Figure 11-3. T0 Pin Sampling
The synchronization and edge detector logic introduces a delay of 2.5 to 3.5 system clock cycles
from an edge has been applied to the T0 pin to the counter is updated.
Enabling and disabling of the clock input must be done when T0 has been stable for at least one
system clock cycle, otherwise it is a risk that a false Timer/Counter clock pulse is generated.
Each half period of the external clock applied must be longer than one system clock cycle to
ensure correct sampling. The external clock must be guaranteed to have less than half the sys-
tem clock frequency (f
sampling, the maximum frequency of an external clock it can detect is half the sampling fre-
quency (Nyquist sampling theorem). However, due to variation of the system clock frequency
and duty cycle caused by Oscillator source (crystal, resonator, and capacitors) tolerances, it is
recommended that maximum frequency of an external clock source is less than f
An external clock source can not be prescaled.
The main part of the 8-bit Timer/Counter is the programmable bi-directional counter unit.

Signal description (internal signals):
The counter is incremented at each timer clock (clk
restarts from BOTTOM. The counting sequence is determined by the setting of the CTC0 bit
located in the Timer/Counter Control Register (TCCR0A). For more details about counting
sequences, see
