Each 82C53 contains three independent 16-bit counter/timers and one 8-bit
mode register. Each counter has a CLK input pin, a GATE input pin, and an
OUT output pin. You can program all six counter/timers to operate in
several useful timing modes.
The first group of counter/timers is called group A and includes A0, A1,
and A2. You can use these three counters for internal DAQ and DAC
