Introduction

This driver for Atmel® | SMART ARM®-based microcontrollers provides an interface for the configuration and management of the device's Timer Counter functionality.

The Timer Counter (TC) includes several identical 16-bit or 32-bit Timer Counter channels. Each channel can be independently programmed to perform a wide range of functions that includes frequency measurement, event counting, interval measurement, pulse generation, delay timing, and pulse width modulation.

Devices from the following series can use this module:
  • Atmel | SMART SAM3

  • Atmel | SMART SAM4S

  • Atmel | SMART SAM4L

  • Atmel | SMART SAM4E

  • Atmel | SMART SAM4N

  • Atmel | SMART SAM4CM
