Quad Timer Driver

This section describes the API for the MC56F83xx and the MC56F80xx Quad Timer on-chip

module. The functionality of the Quad Timer module itself is described in the MC56F83xx

Peripheral User Manual, 56F8000 Peripheral Reference Manual and 56F802x/3x Peripheral

Reference Manual.

Introduction

The MC56F8xxx can have up to four Quad Timer modules: A, B, C and D. Note that in case of a

single Quad Timer module on the silicon, it can be labeled without alphabetic character. Each

Quad Timer module consists of four identical 16-bit timers/counters with capture/compare

capabilities. This section describes the Quad Timer driver software providing the lowest level

software layer, interfacing the hardware with the software.
