Section 9 Timers

Timer Operation
Interval Timer Operation
When bit TMA3 in timer mode register A (TMA) is cleared to 0, timer A functions as an 8-bit
interval timer.
Upon reset, TCA is cleared to H'00 and bit TMA3 is cleared to 0, so up-counting and interval
timing resume immediately. The clock input to timer A is selected by bits TMA2 to TMA0 in
TMA; any of eight internal clock signals output by prescaler S can be selected.
After the count value in TCA reaches H'FF, the next clock signal input causes timer A to
overflow, setting bit IRRTA to 1 in interrupt request register 1 (IRR1). If IENTA = 1 in interrupt
enable register 1 (IENR1), a CPU interrupt is requested. *
At overflow, TCA returns to H'00 and starts counting up again. In this mode timer A functions as
an interval timer that generates an overflow output at intervals of 256 input clock pulses.
Note: * For details on interrupts, see section 3.3, Interrupts.
Real-Time Clock Time Base Operation
When bit TMA3 in TMA is set to 1, timer A functions as a real-time clock time base by counting
clock signals output by prescaler W. The overflow period of timer A is set by bits TMA1 and
TMA0 in TMA. A choice of four periods is available. In time base operation (TMA3 = 1), setting
bit TMA2 to 1 clears both TCA and prescaler W to their initial values of H'00.
