6.3.2 Programmable Clock-Output
In the clock-out mode, timer 2 operates as a 50%-duty-cycle, programmable clock generator (See Figure 5) . The
input clock increments TL2 at frequency F /2. The timer repeatedly counts to overflow from a loaded value.
OSC
At overflow, the contents of RCAP2H and RCAP2L registers are loaded into TH2 and TL2. In this mode, timer
2 overflows do not generate interrupts. The formula gives the clock-out frequency as a function of the system
oscillator frequency and the value in the RCAP2H and RCAP2L registers :

Clock – OutFrequency = --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For a 16 MHz system clock, timer 2 has a programmable frequency range of 61 Hz

Timer 2 is programmed for the clock-out mode as follows:
● Set T2OE bit in T2MOD register.
● Clear C/T2 bit in T2CON register.
● Determine the 16-bit reload value from the formula and enter it in RCAP2H/RCAP2L registers.
● Enter a 16-bit initial value in timer registers TH2/TL2. It can be the same as the reload value or a different
one depending on the application.
