Stellaris^® LM3S5956 Microcontroller
1.3.4.3
– Internal 30-kHz Oscillator: on chip resource providing a 30 kHz ± 50% frequency, used during
power-saving modes
– 32.768-kHz external oscillator for the Hibernation Module: eliminates need for additional
crystal for main clock source
■ Flexible reset sources
– Power-on reset (POR)
– Reset pin assertion
– Brown-out reset (BOR) detector alerts to system power drops
– Software reset
– Watchdog timer reset
– MOSC failure
Programmable Timers (see page 462)
Programmable timers can be used to count or time external events that drive the Timer input pins.
Each GPTM block provides two 16-bit timers/counters that can be configured to operate independently
as timers or event counters, or configured to operate as one 32-bit timer or one 32-bit Real-Time
Clock (RTC). Timers can also be used to trigger analog-to-digital (ADC) conversions.
The General-Purpose Timer Module (GPTM) contains four GPTM blocks with the following functional
options:
■ Operating modes:
– 16- or 32-bit programmable one-shot timer
– 16- or 32-bit programmable periodic timer
– 16-bit general-purpose timer with an 8-bit prescaler
– 32-bit Real-Time Clock (RTC) when using an external 32.768-KHz clock as the input
– 16-bit input-edge count- or time-capture modes
– 16-bit PWM mode with software-programmable output inversion of the PWM signal
■ Count up or down
■ Eight Capture Compare PWM pins (CCP)
■ Daisy chaining of timer modules to allow a single timer to initiate multiple timing events
■ ADC event trigger
■ User-enabled stalling when the microcontroller asserts CPU Halt flag during debug (excluding
RTC mode)
■ Ability to determine the elapsed time between the assertion of the timer interrupt and entry into
the interrupt service routine.
