CHAPTER 5 TIMEBASE TIMER
5.2 Block Diagram of Timebase Timer
The timebase timer consists of the following four blocks:
• Timebase timer counter
• Counter clear circuit
• Interval timer selector
• Timebase timer control register (TBTC)

●
Timebase timer counter
A 20-bit up counter that uses the divide-by-two main clock oscillation frequency as a count clock. The
counter stops when the main clock oscillator is stopped.
●
Counter clear circuit
In addition to being cleared by setting the TBTC register (TBR = "0"), the counter is cleared when device
goes to stop mode (STBC: STP = "1") or by power-on reset (optional).
●
Interval timer selector
Selects one of four operating timebase timer counter bits as the interval timer bit. An overflow on the
selected bit triggers an interrupt.
