Timers - Motorola MC68302 User Manual

3.5 TIMERS
3-34
The MC68302 includes three timer units: two identical general-purpose timers
and a watchdog timer.
Each general-purpose timer consists of a timer mode register (TMR), a timer
capture register (TCR), a timer counter (TCN), a timer reference register (TRR),
and a timer event register (TER). The TMR contains the prescaler value pro-
grammed by the user. The watchdog timer, which has a watchdog reference
register (WRR) and a watchdog counter (WCN), uses a fixed prescaler value.
The timer block diagram is shown in Figure 3-5.
