CHAPTER 4: PERIPHERAL CIRCUITS AND OPERATION (Stopwatch Counter)
Stopwatch Counter
The S1C6S3N2 Series incorporates a 1/100 sec and 1/10
sec stopwatch counter. The stopwatch counter is configured
of a two-stage, four-bit BCD counter serving as the input
clock of an approximately 100 Hz signal (signal obtained by
approximately demultiplying the 256 Hz signal output by
the prescaler). Data can be read out four bits at a time by
the software.
Figure 4.9.1 is the block diagram of the stopwatch counter.

The stopwatch counter can be used as a separate timer from
the clock timer. In particular, digital watch stopwatch
functions can be realized easily with software.
