Mode 3 – Split 8-bit PWM

Timer 1 in PWM Mode 3 simply holds its count. The effect is the same as setting TR1 = 0.
Timer 0 in PWM Mode 3 establishes TL0 and TH0 as two separate PWM counters in a manner
similar to normal Mode 3. PWM Mode 3 on Timer 0 is shown in

Figure 14-9

. Only the Timer

Prescaler is available to change the output frequency during PWM Mode 3. TL0 can use the
Timer 0 control bits: GATE, TR0, INT0, PWM0EN and TF0. TH0 is locked into a timer function
and uses TR1, PWM1EN and TF1. RL0 provides the duty cycle for TL0 and RH0 provides the
duty cycle for TH0.

PWM Mode 3 is for applications requiring a single PWM channel and two timers, or two PWM
channels and an extra timer or counter. With Timer 0 in PWM Mode 3, the AT89LP213 can
appear to have three Timer/Counters. When Timer 0 is in PWM Mode 3, Timer 1 can be turned
on and off by switching it out of and into its own Mode 3. In this case, Timer 1 can still be used by
the serial port as a baud rate generator or in any application not requiring an interrupt. The fol-
lowing formulas give the output frequency and duty cycle for Timer 0 in PWM Mode 3.
