26.5 PSYNC Bit

Setting the PSYNC bit synchronizes the prescaler output to F_OSC/4. Setting this bit is required for reading the Timer2 counter register while the selected Timer clock is asynchronous to F_OSC/4.

Note: Setting PSYNC requires that the output of the prescaler is slower than F_OSC/4. Setting PSYNC when the output of the prescaler is greater than or equal to F_OSC/4 may cause unexpected results.
