Initialization/Application Information
The general-purpose timer modules typically, but not necessarily, follow this program order:
•
The DTMR
n
and DTXMR
n
registers are configured for the desired function and behavior.
— Count and compare to a reference value stored in the DTRR
n
register
— Capture the timer value on an edge detected on DTIN
n
— Configure DTOUT
n
output mode
— Increment counter by 1 or by 65,537 (16-bit mode)
— Enable/disable interrupt or DMA request on counter reference match or capture edge
•
The DTMR
n
[CLK] register is configured to select the clock source to be routed to the prescaler.
— Internal bus clock (can be divided by 1 or 16)
— DTIN
n
, the maximum value of DTIN
n
is 1/5 of the internal bus clock, as described in the
device’s electrical characteristics
NOTE
DTIN
n
may not be configured as a clock source when the timer capture
mode is selected or indeterminate operation results.
•
The 8-bit DTMR
n
[PS] prescaler value is set.
•
Using DTMR
n
[RST], counter is cleared and started.
•
Timer events are managed with an interrupt service routine, a DMA request, or by a software
polling mechanism.

Code Example
The following code provides an example of how to initialize and use DMA Timer0 for counting time-out
periods.
DTMR0 EQU 0x400 ;Timer0 mode register
DTMR1 EQU 0x440 ;Timer1 mode register
DTRR0 EQU 0x404 ;Timer0 reference register
DTRR1 EQU 0x444 ;Timer1 reference register
DTCR0 EQU 0x408 ;Timer0 capture register
DTCR1 EQU 0x448 ;Timer1 capture register
DTCN0 EQU 0x40C ;Timer0 counter register
DTCN1 EQU 0x44C ;Timer1 counter register
DTER0 EQU 0x403 ;Timer0 event register
DTER1 EQU 0x443 ;Timer1 event register
* TMR0 is defined as: *
*[PS] = 0xFF,
divide clock by 256
*[CE] = 00
disable capture event output
*[OM] = 0
output=active-low pulse
*[ORRI] = 0,
disable ref. match output
*[FRR] = 1,
restart mode enabled
*[CLK] = 10,
internal bus clock/16
*[RST] = 0,
timer0 disabled
