9. Assuming XTAL = 8 MHz and processor is configured to
work with 50 MHz, indicate how long it will take the timer
to timeout given the following case. Compare the cases
and explain why the results and the same or different:
a. Configured as 16-bit timer and the initial value is
0x1FFF
b. Configured as 32-bit timer and the initial value is
0x1FFF
c. Configured as 32-bit timer and the initial value is
0x0001FFF
Solution
The code looks as follows:
CTC
But theres another mode of operation for AVR timers. This
mode is called Clear Timer on Compare Match, or CTC.
Instead of counting until an overflow occurs, the timer
compares its count to a value that was previously stored in
a register. When the count matches that value, the timer
can either set a flag or trigger an interrupt, just like the
overflow case.
To use CTC, you need to figure out how many counts you
need to get to a one second interval. Assuming we keep
