13. TIMER / COUNTER
The GMS81C1404 and GMS81C1408 has four Timer/
Counter registers. Each module can generate an interrupt
to indicate that an event has occurred (i.e. timer match).
Timer 0 and Timer 1 can be used either the two 8-bit Tim-
er/Counter or one 16-bit Timer/Counter by combining
them. Also Timer 2 and Timer 3 are same. In this docu-
ment, explain Timer 0 and Timer 1 because Timer2 and
Timer3 same with Timer 0 and Timer 1.
In the “timer” function, the register is increased every in-
ternal clock input. Thus, one can think of it as counting in-
ternal clock input. Since a least clock consists of 2 and
most clock consists of 2048 oscillator periods, the count
rate is 1/2 to 1/2048 of the oscillator frequency in Timer0.
And Timer1 can use the same clock source too. In addition,
Timer1 has more fast clock source (1/1 to 1/8).
In the “counter” function, the register is increased in re-
sponse to a 0-to-1 (rising edge) transition at its correspond-
ing external input pin, EC0(Timer 0) or EC1(Timer 2).
Note: In the external event counter function, the RA0/EC0
pin has not a schmitt trigger, but a normal input port.
Therefore, it may be count more than input event
signal if the noise interfere in slow transition input
signal .
In addition the “capture” function, the register is increased
in response external interrupt same with timer function.
When external interrupt edge input, the count register is
captured into capture data register CDRx.
Timer1 and Timer 3 are shared with “PWM” function and
“Compare output” function
It has seven operating modes: “8-bit timer/counter”, “16-
bit timer/counter”, “8-bit capture”, “16-bit capture”, “8-bit
compare output”, “16-bit compare output” and “10-bit
PWM” which are selected by bit in Timer mode register
TMx as shown in Figure 13-1 and Table 13-1 .
