4.10.1 Configuration of programmable timer

The S1C63558 has two 8-bit programmable timer systems (timer 0 and timer 1) built-in.
Timer 0 and timer 1 are composed of 8-bit presettable down counters and they can be used as 8-bit
channel programmable timers. Timer 0 also has an event counter function using the K13 input port
terminal.
Figure 4.10.1.1 shows the configuration of the programmable timer.
The programmable timer is designed to count down from the initial value set in the counter with soft-
ware. An underflow according to the initial value occurs by counting down and is used for the following
functions:
• Presetting the initial value to the counter to generate the periodical underflow signal
• Generating an interrupt
• Generating a TOUT signal output from the R02 output port terminal
• Generating the synchronous clock source for the serial interface (timer 1 underflow is used, and it is
possible to set the transfer rate)
