Figure 5-36. Count Operation Timing
(4) Applications of the timer/event counter
(a) Timer/event counter is used as an interval timer that generates interrupts at intervals of 30 ms.
• The high-order four bits of the mode register are set to 0100B to select maximum set time 43.7 ms
(at f
X
= 6.00 MHz).
• The low-order four bits of the mode register are set to 1100B.
• The modulo register is set to the following value:
30 ms/171 µs = 175.4 =
.

AFH
<Sample program>
SEL MB15
MOV XA,#0AEH
MOV TMOD0,XA ; Set the modulo register
MOV XA,#01001100B
MOV TM0,XA ; Set the mode register and start the timer
EI ; Enable an interrupt
EI IET0 ; Enable a timer interrupt
Remark In this application, the TI0 pin can be used as an input pin.
(b) An interrupt is caused when the number of pulses (active high) applied to the TI0 pin reaches
100.
• The high-order four bits of the mode register are set to 0000 to select the rising edge.
• The low-order four bits of the mode register are set to 1100B.
• The modulo register is set to 99 = 100 – 1.
