26.4 Operation

The Timer1 modules found in PIC32A family devices support the following modes of operation:

  • Synchronous Clock Counter
  • Synchronous External Clock Counter
  • Gated Timer
  • Asynchronous External Counter

The Timer modes are determined by the following bits:

  • TCS (T1CON[1]): Timer1 Clock Source Select bit
  • TGATE (T1CON[7]): Timer1 Gated Time Accumulation Enable bit
  • TSYNC (T1CON[2]): Timer1 External Clock Input Synchronization Selection bit
