Product data sheet
7.7 Timer
The timer (location 07h) is enabled by setting the control and status register to
XX0X X1XX. The timer counts up from 0 (or a programmed value) to 99. On overflow, the
timer resets to 0. The timer flag (LSB of control and status register) is set on overflow of
the timer. This flag must be reset by software. The inverted value of this flag can be
transferred to the external interrupt by setting bit 3 of the alarm control register.
Additionally, a timer alarm can be programmed by setting the timer alarm enable (bit 6 of
the alarm control register). When the value of the timer equals a pre-programmed value in
the alarm timer register (location 0Fh), the alarm flag is set (bit 1 of the control and status
register). The inverted value of the alarm flag can be transferred to the external interrupt
by enabling the alarm interrupt (bit 6 of the alarm control register).
Resolution of the timer is programmed via the 3 LSBs of the alarm control register (see
Figure
Fig 11. Selection of alarm weekdays
12).
