Chapter 9. Timers
The Z8 Encore! XP F1680 Series products contain three 16-bit reloadable timers that can
be used for timing, event counting, or generation of pulse-width modulated signals. The
timers’ features include:
• 16-bit reload counter
• Programmable prescaler with prescale values ranging from 1 to 128
• PWM output generation
• Capture and compare capability
• Two independent capture/compare channels which reference the common timer
• External input pin for timer input, clock gating, or capture signal. External input pin
signal frequency is limited to a maximum of one-fourth the timer clock frequency
• Timer output pin
• Timer interrupt
• Noise Filter on Timer input signal
• Operation in any mode with 32kHz secondary oscillator
In addition to the timers described in this chapter, the Baud Rate Generator (BRG) of
unused UART peripheral can also be used to provide basic timing functionality. For more
information about using the Baud Rate Generator as additional timers, see the LIN-UART
chapter on page 144.
