Note You should configure both DACs in either immediate update mode or in later
update mode, but not in a combination of the two modes. Although you can
configure the DACs in a combination of modes, doing so can result in glitches on
the immediate update DAC if the update rate on the waveform DAC is high. Please
refer to the Analog Output section in Chapter 4,
on this behavior.

this case is triggered by a low level on the EXTUPDATE* line. The
counter-interrupt signal interrupts the PC. This interrupt is generated on the
rising edge of EXTUPDATE*. The DACWRT signal writes a new value to
the DAC.

General-Purpose Timing Signal Connections

General-purpose timing signals include the GATE, CLK, and OUT signals
for the three 82C53(B) counters. The 82C53 counter/timers can be used for
general-purpose applications such as pulse and square wave generation;
event counting; and pulsewidth, time-lapse, and frequency measurement.
For these applications, the CLK and GATE signals at the front
I/O connector control the counters. The single exception is counter B0,
