GENERAL PURPOSE TIMER & FREE-RUNNING CLOCK

This chapter details the General Purpose Timer (GPT) and the Free-Running Clock.

15.1

General Purpose Timer

The device provides a 16-bit programmable General Purpose Timer that can be used to generate periodic system inter-

rupts. The resolution of this timer is 100 µs.

The GPT loads the General Purpose Timer Count Register (GPT_CNT) with the value in the General Purpose Timer

Pre-Load (GPT_LOAD) field of the General Purpose Timer Configuration Register (GPT_CFG) when the General Pur-

pose Timer Enable (TIMER_EN) bit of the General Purpose Timer Configuration Register (GPT_CFG) is asserted (1).

On a chip-level reset or when the General Purpose Timer Enable (TIMER_EN) bit changes from asserted (1) to de-

asserted (0), the General Purpose Timer Pre-Load (GPT_LOAD) field is initialized to FFFFh. The General Purpose

Timer Count Register (GPT_CNT) is also initialized to FFFFh on reset.

Once enabled, the GPT counts down until it reaches 0000h. At 0000h, the counter wraps around to FFFFh, asserts the

GP Timer (GPT_INT) interrupt status bit in the Interrupt Status Register (INT_STS), asserts the IRQ interrupt (if GP

Timer Interrupt Enable (GPT_INT_EN) is set in the Interrupt Enable Register (INT_EN)) and continues counting. GP

Timer (GPT_INT) is a sticky bit. Once this bit is asserted, it can only be cleared by writing a 1 to the bit. Refer to Section

8.2.3, "General Purpose Timer Interrupt," on page 55 for additional information on the GPT interrupt.

Software can write a pre-load value into the General Purpose Timer Pre-Load (GPT_LOAD) field at any time (e.g.,

before or after the General Purpose Timer Enable (TIMER_EN) bit is asserted). The General Purpose Timer Count Reg-

ister (GPT_CNT) will immediately be set to the new value and continue to count down (if enabled) from that value.

15.2

Free-Running Clock

The Free-Running Clock (FRC) is a simple 32-bit up-counter that operates from a fixed 25 MHz clock. The current FRC

value can be read via the Free Running 25MHz Counter Register (FREE_RUN). On assertion of a chip-level reset, this

counter is cleared to zero. On de-assertion of a reset, the counter is incremented once for every 25 MHz clock cycle.

When the maximum count has been reached, the counter rolls over to zeros. The FRC does not generate interrupts.

Note:

The free running counter can take up to 160 ns to clear after a reset event.

General Purpose Timer and Free-Running Clock Registers

This section details the directly addressable general purpose timer and free-running clock related System CSRs. For

an overview of the entire directly addressable register map, refer to Section 5.0, "Register Map," on page 32.
