Prescalers
The MCU has two prescalers, S and W. See table 25 and figure 40.
Both the timers A–D input clocks except external events and the serial transmit clock except the external
clock are selected from the prescaler outputs, depending on corresponding mode registers.

Prescaler Operation
Prescaler S: 11-bit counter that inputs a system clock signal. After being reset to $000 by MCU reset,
prescaler S divides the system clock. Prescaler S keeps counting, except in watch and stop modes and at
MCU reset.
Prescaler W: Five-bit counter that inputs the X1 input clock signal (32-kHz crystal oscillation) divided.
After being reset to $00 by MCU reset, prescaler W divides the input clock. Prescaler W can be reset by
software.
