TG BIT SET
TIMEOUT
TO BIT SET
Figure 8-10. Event Count Mode
The timer is enabled by setting the SWR and CPE bits in the CR and, if TGATEâ is
enabled (TGE bit of the CR is set), then asserting TGATEâ. When the timer is enabled,
the SR ON bit is set. On the next falling edge of the counter clock, the counter is loaded
with the value of $FFFF. With each successive falling edge of the counter clock, the
counter decrements. The PREL1 and PREL2 registers are not used in this mode.
If TGATEâ is not enabled (CR TGE bit is cleared), then TGATEâ does not start or stop
the timer or affect the TG bit of the SR. In this case, the counter would begin counting on
the falling edge of the counter clock immediately after the SWR and CPE bits in the CR
are set.
If TGATEâ is enabled (CR TGE bit is set), then the assertion of TGATEâ starts the
counter. The negation of TGATEâ disables the counter, sets the SR TG bit, and clears the
ON bit in the SR. If TGATEâ is reasserted, the timer resumes counting from where it was
stopped, and the ON bit is set again. Further assertions and negations of TGATEâ have
the same effect. The TGL bit in the SR reflects the level of TGATEâ at all times.
If the counter counts down to the value stored in the COM register, the COM and TC bits
in the SR are set. If the counter counts down to $0000, a timeout is detected. This event
sets the TO in the SR and clears the COM bit. At timeout, the next falling edge of the
counter clock reloads the counter with $FFFF. TOUTx transitions at timeout or is disabled
as programmed by the CR OC bits. The SR OUT bit reflects the level on TOUTx.
To determine the number of cycles counted, the value in the CNTR must be read,
inverted, and incremented by 1 (the first count is $FFFF which, in effect, includes a count
of zero). The counter counts in a true 216 fashion. For measuring pulses of even greater
duration, the value in the POx bits in the SR are readable and can be thought of as an
extension of the least significant bits in the CNTR.
