PS[2:0] — Prescaler Select Bits
These read/write bits select one of the seven prescaler outputs as the input to the TIM1 counter as
Table 17-1 shows. Reset clears the PS[2:0] bits.
17.8.2 TIM1 Counter Registers
The two read-only TIM1 counter registers contain the high and low bytes of the value in the TIM1 counter.
Reading the high byte (T1CNTH) latches the contents of the low byte (T1CNTL) into a buffer. Subsequent
reads of T1CNTH do not affect the latched T1CNTL value until T1CNTL is read. Reset clears the TIM1
counter registers. Setting the TIM1 reset bit (TRST) also clears the TIM1 counter registers.
NOTE
If you read T1CNTH during a break interrupt, be sure to unlatch T1CNTL
by reading T1CNTL before exiting the break interrupt. Otherwise, T1CNTL
retains the value latched during the break.
