8.0 Timer0, Timer1 & Timer2
8.1 Timers/Counters
MG87FE/L52 has three 16-bit timers, and they are named T0, T1 and T2. Each of them can also
be used as a general event counter, which counts the transition from 1 to 0.
While T0/T1/T2 is used as “timer” function, the time unit that used to measure the timer is
machine cycle. A machine cycle equals to 12 or 6 oscillator periods, and depends on 12T mode
or 6T mode that the user configured this device.
While T0/T1/T2 is used as “1-0 event counter” function, the counting event is the “high-to-low
transition” of primitive pin T0/T1/T2. In this mode, the device periodically samples the status of
pin T0/T1/T2 once for each machine cycle. Whenever the sampled result turns from 1 to 0, the
device will count once on the counter. Be carefully, this kind of implementation for the counter
requires the high-duty or low-duty from pin T0/T1/T2 and must not too short compared to a
machine cycle.
There are two SFR designed to configure timers T0 and T1. They are TMOD, and TCON.
