15 GENERAL-PURPOSE TIMERS
This chapter describes the general-purpose timer module. Following an
overview and a list of key features is a description of operation and func-
tional modes of operation. The chapter concludes with a programming
model, consolidated register definitions, and programming examples.
Overview and Features
The processor features one general-purpose timer module that contains
eight identical 32-bit timers. Every timer can operate in various operating
modes on individual configuration. Although the timers operate com-
pletely independent from each other, all of them can be started and
stopped simultaneously for synchronous operation.
Features
The general-purpose timers support the following operating modes:
• Single-shot mode for interval timing and single pulse generation
• Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) generation with consistent
update of period and pulse width values
• External signal capture mode with consistent update of period and
pulse width values
• External event counter mode
