External Clock Input Timing with Unsynchronized Clock
Reading and Writing Timer1 in Asynchronous Counter Mode
Timer1 Operation in Asynchronous Counter Mode
If T1SYNC (T1CON<2>) is set, the external clock input is not synchronized. The timer continues
to increment asynchronously to the internal phase clocks. The timer will continue to run during
SLEEP and can generate an interrupt on overflow which will wake-up the processor. However,
special precautions in software are needed to read/write the timer (Subsection
and Writing Timer1 in Asynchronous Counter
sleep, Timer1 can be used to implement a true real-time clock.
In asynchronous counter mode, Timer1 cannot be used as a time-base for capture or compare
operations.
If the T1SYNC control bit is set, the timer will increment completely asynchronously. The input
clock must meet certain minimum high time and low time requirements. Refer to the Device Data
Sheet Electrical Specifications Section, timing
Reading TMR1H or TMR1L while the timer is running from an external asynchronous clock, will
guarantee a valid read (taken care of in hardware). However, the user should keep in mind that
reading the 16-bit timer in two 8-bit values itself poses certain problems since the timer may
overflow between the reads.
For writes, it is recommended that the user simply stop the timer and write the desired values. A
write contention may occur by writing to the timer registers while the register is incrementing. This
may produce an unpredictable value in the timer register.
Reading the 16-bit value requires some care, since two separate reads are required to read the
entire 16-bits.
