TIMER 2

TIMER 2 OVERFLOW INTERRUPT

Timer 2 can be programmed to generate an overflow interrupt (IRQ3, F0H) whenever an overflow occurs in the
16-bit up counter. When you set the timer 2 overflow interrupt enable bit, T2CON.2, to "1", the overflow interrupt is
generated each time the 16-bit up counter reaches 'FFFFH'. After the interrupt request is generated, the counter
value is automatically cleared to '00H' and up counting resumes. By writing a "1" to T2CON.3, you can clear/reset
the 16-bit counter value at any time during program operation.

TIMER 2 CAPTURE INTERRUPT

Timer 2 can be used to generate a capture interrupt (IRQ3, vector F2H) whenever a triggering condition is
detected at the P3.0 pin for 32 pin package and P3.3 pin for 44 pin package. The T2CON.5 and T2CON.4 bit-pair
setting is used to select the trigger condition for capture mode operation: rising edges, falling edges, or both
signal edges.
In capture mode, program software can poll the timer 2 match/capture interrupt pending bit, T2CON.0, to detect
when a timer 2 capture interrupt pending condition exists (T2CON.0 = "1"). When the interrupt request is
acknowledged by the CPU and the service routine starts, the interrupt service routine for vector F2H must clear
the interrupt pending condition by writing a "0" to T2CON.0.
P3.0 or P3.3

NOTE: P3.0 is assigned as T2CAP function for 32 pin package and P3.3 is assigned
