The Am9513A contains five independent 16-bit counter/timers, a 4-bit
frequency output channel, and five internally generated timebases. The
five counter/timers can be programmed to operate in several useful
timing modes. The programming and operation of the Am9513A are
presented in detail in Appendix C, AMD Am9513A Data Sheet.
The Am9513A clock input is one-tenth the BRDCLK frequency.
BRDCLK is selected through a register in the AT-MIO-16X register
set. The factory default for BRDCLK is 10 MHz, which generates a
1-MHz clock input to the Am9513A. The Am9513A uses this clock
input plus a BRDCLK divided-by-two input at Source 2 to generate
six internal timebases. These timebases can be used as clocks by the
counter/timers and by the frequency output channel. When BRDCLK
is 10 MHz, the six internal timebases normally used for AT-MIO-16X
timing functions are 5 MHz, 1 MHz, 100 kHz, 10 kHz, 1 kHz, and
100 Hz. The 16-bit counters in the Am9513A can be diagrammed as
shown in Figure 3-18.
