XA-C3 TIMER/COUNTERS
The XA has two standard 16–bit enhanced Timer/Counters: Timer 0
and Timer 1. Additionally, it has a third 16–bit Up/Down
timer/counter, T2. A central timing generator in the XA core provides
the time–base for all XA Timers and Counters. The timer/event
counters can perform the following functions:
– Measure time intervals and pulse duration
– Count External events
– Generate interrupt requests
– Generate PWM or timed output waveforms
All timer/counters (Timer 0, Timer 1 and Timer 2) can be
independently programmed to operate either as timers or event
counters. Timer 0 and Timer 1 are selectable via TMOD[6] and
TMOD[2], respectively. Timer 2 is selectable via T2CON[1]. All
timers may be dynamically read during program execution. All timers
count up unless otherwise stated.
When running in timer mode (as opposed to counter mode) the base
clock rate of all timers, including the Watchdog timer, is
user–programmable. The clock driving the timers is called TCLK
and is determined by the setting of two bits (PT1, PT0) (SCR[3:2]) in
the System Configuration Register – See Table 5. The frequency of
TCLK may be selected to be the oscillator input divided by 4 (fc/4),
the oscillator input divided by 16 (fc/16), or the oscillator input
divided by 64 (fc/64). This gives a range of possibilities for the XA
timer functions, including baud rate generation and Timer 2 capture.
Note: This single SCR rate setting applies to all timers.
When timers T0, T1, or T2 are used in the counter mode, the timers
will increment whenever a falling edge (high–to–low transition) is
detected on an External clock pin. These inputs are sampled once
every two oscillator cycles, so it can take as many as four oscillator
cycles to detect a transition. Thus, the maximum count rate that can
be supported is fc /4. In general, the duty cycle of the timer clock
inputs is not important. However, any high or low state on the timer
clock input pins must be present for two oscillator cycles before it is
guaranteed to be “seen” by the timer logic.
Timer 0 and Timer 1
These two Timer/Counters have four operating modes, which are
selected by bit–pairs (M1, M0) in the TMOD register. Timer modes
1, 2, and 3 in XA are kept identical to the 80C51 timer modes for
code compatibility. Only the mode 0 is replaced in the XA by a more
powerful 16–bit auto–reload mode. This gives the XA timers a much
larger range when used as time bases.
The recommended M1, M0 settings for the different modes are
shown in Figure 6.

Compatibility Mode allows the XA to execute most translated 80C51 code on the XA. The
XA register file must copy the 80C51 mapping to data memory and mimic the 80C51 indirect
addressing scheme.
PZ
Page Zero mode forces all program and data addresses to 16-bits only. This saves stack space
and speeds up execution but limits memory access to 64k.
