temporary register, and latched after two positive edges on TOSC1. The user should not
write a new value before the contents of the temporary register have been transferred to its
destination. Each of the three mentioned registers have their individual temporary register, for
example, writing to TCNT0 does not disturb an OCR0 write in progress. To detect that a
transfer to the destination register has taken place, the Asynchronous Status Register –
ASSR has been implemented.
OCR0, or TCCR0, the user must wait until the written register has been updated if
Timer/Counter0 is used to wake up the device. Otherwise, the MCU will enter sleep mode
before the changes are effective. This is particularly important if the Output Compare0
interrupt is used to wake up the device, since the Output Compare function is disabled during
writing to OCR0 or TCNT0. If the write cycle is not finished, and the MCU enters sleep mode
before the OCR0UB bit returns to zero, the device will never receive a Compare Match
interrupt, and the MCU will not wake up.
1. Disable the Timer/Counter0 interrupts by clearing OCIE0 and TOIE0.
2. Select clock source by setting AS0 as appropriate.
3. Write new values to TCNT0, OCR0, and TCCR0.
4. To switch to asynchronous operation: Wait for TCN0UB, OCR0UB, and TCR0UB.
5. Clear the Timer/Counter0 interrupt flags.
6. Enable interrupts, if needed.
