  • Page 47: Timers

    3.3 Timers The V7768/V7769 provide four user-programmable timers (two 16-bit and two 32-bit) which are completely dedicated to user applications and are not required for any standard system function. Each timer is clocked by independent generators with selectable rates of 2 MHz, 1 MHz, 500 kHz and 250 kHz. Each timer may be independently enabled and each is capable of generating a system interrupt on timeout.
  • Page 48: Timer Control Status Register 2 (Tcsr2)

    Timers 1 & 2 are 16-bits wide and obtain their load count from the Timer 1 & 2 Load Count Register (TMRLCR12), located at offset 0x10 from the address in BAR2. The mapping of bits in this register is shown in Table 3-5. 48 V7768/V7769 Hardware Reference Manual...
