A prescaler can be used to divide the timer counter input clock frequency. The prescaler is enabled when the TCLR[5] PRE bit is set. The TCLR[4:2] PTV bit field sets the 2n division ratio (prescaler value is 2(PTV + 1). The prescaler counter is reset when the timer counter is stopped or reloaded on-the-fly.
Table 24-8 lists the prescaler/timer reload values versus contexts.
