61.3 Block Diagram

Table 61-1. Timer Counter Clock Assignment
Name Definition
TIMER_CLOCK1 GCLK [17], GCLK[45]
TIMER_CLOCK2 MCK/8
TIMER_CLOCK3 MCK/32
TIMER_CLOCK4 MCK/128
TIMER_CLOCK5 (1) MD_SLCK
Note:
  1. The GCLK [TC_ID] frequency must be at least three times lower than peripheral clock frequency.
Figure 61-1. TC Block Diagram
Note:
  1. This figure provides pin names of a first instance of a Timer Counter block (i.e., instance TC0). For any subsequent instances, the signal numbering increments. For example, “TCLK3-TCLK5”, "TIOA3-TIOA5” and "TIOB3-TIOB5” are the external clock input pins of a second Timer Counter block (i.e., instance TC1).
  2. The QDEC connections are detailed in Figure 61-17.
