6-3-1 Operation
The timer operation can constantly generate interrupts.
„ 8-bit Timer Operation (Timers 0, 1, 4 and 5)
The generation cycle of timer interrupts is set by the clock source selection and the setting value of the
compare register (TMnOC), in advance. If the binary counter (TMnBC) reaches the setting value of the
compare register, an interrupt is generated at the next count clock, then binary counter is cleared and
counting is restarted from x'00'.
Table 6-3-1 shows clock source that can be selected.
